I sat down to write wewe a song
So I grabbed my notebook
And debated whether
To use a pencil au pen
Whatever comes a floatin'
Well here's your song, darlin'
I was thinkin' that -
Well nevermind it
I was wonderin' if -
Sorry, just forget it
Would it be okay if -
La la la la la la
(spoken) Here goes nothin'
Oh, after a long while
After I thought it out
I settled with blue ink, yeah
To tell wewe what I think, huh
Whatever comes a floatin'
Well here's your song, darlin'
I was thinkin' that -
Well nevermind it
I was wonderin' if -
Sorry, just forget it
Would it be okay if -
La la la la la la
(spoken) Here goes nothin'
Because I know that I
Could never write a song
As perfect as wewe are
So I'm settling for
Whatever comes a floatin'
Well did wewe like your song, darlin'?
So I grabbed my notebook

Winter is here again oh Lord,
Haven't been nyumbani in a mwaka au more
I hope she holds on a little longer
Sent a letter on a long summer day
Made of silver, not of clay
I've been runnin' down this dusty road
[Chorus:]
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I've been trying to make it home
Got to make it before too long
I can't take this very much longer
I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
Don't think I'm ever gonna make it nyumbani again
The mornin' sun is risin'
It's kissing the day
[Chorus]
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
Haven't been nyumbani in a mwaka au more
I hope she holds on a little longer
Sent a letter on a long summer day
Made of silver, not of clay
I've been runnin' down this dusty road
[Chorus:]
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I've been trying to make it home
Got to make it before too long
I can't take this very much longer
I'm stranded in the sleet and rain
Don't think I'm ever gonna make it nyumbani again
The mornin' sun is risin'
It's kissing the day
[Chorus]
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
I don't know where I'll be tomorrow
Wheel in the sky keeps on turnin'
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one siku wewe came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
All the empty yesterdays have disappeared
Now that wewe have filled my life with love
No one else could ever mean so much to me
Every siku my high lasts longer
As our upendo grows ever stronger
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one siku wewe came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
When wewe gave your upendo to me wewe changed my life
Dreams that once seemed hopeless come with ease
Thank wewe girl for being just the way wewe are
I would never try to change you
All I live for is to upendo you
I'm feeling alive again
I'm feeling alive again
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one siku wewe came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
All the empty yesterdays have disappeared
Now that wewe have filled my life with love
No one else could ever mean so much to me
Every siku my high lasts longer
As our upendo grows ever stronger
Yesterday I would not have believed
That tomorrow the sun would shine
Then one siku wewe came into my life
I am alive again I am alive again
When wewe gave your upendo to me wewe changed my life
Dreams that once seemed hopeless come with ease
Thank wewe girl for being just the way wewe are
I would never try to change you
All I live for is to upendo you
I'm feeling alive again
I'm feeling alive again
"Everybody needs a little time away," I heard her say, "from each other."
"Even lover's need a holiday far away from each other."
Hold me now. It's hard for me to say I'm sorry. I just want wewe to stay.
After all that we've been through, I will make it up to you. I promise to.
And after all that's been alisema and done,
You're just the part of me I can't let go.
Couldn't stand to be kept away just for the siku from your body.
Wouldn't wanna be swept away, far away from the one that I love.
Hold me now. It's hard for me to say I'm sorry. I just want wewe to know.
Hold me now. I really want to tell wewe I'm sorry. I could never let wewe go.
After all that we've been through, I will make it up to you. I promise to.
And after all that's been alisema and done,
You're just the part of me I can't let go.

You're gonna be the lucky one.

Sometimes you're sentimental
I know exactly what to do
And if I'm temperamental
wewe calm me down and wewe pull me through
[chorus]
We are the lucky ones
We have one another
When the end of the siku has come
I return to wewe
Life can be so demanding
Sometimes it's hard to make it through
It's upendo and understanding
wewe give to me, I give to wewe
[chorus]
Our own fairy tale
Our inayopendelewa bedtime story
One that we won't forget
We fell in love
We knew from the start
We'd always be together
The first time that we met
Can't forget
[chorus]
All alone in the setting sun
I'll have wewe and you'll have me
I know exactly what to do
And if I'm temperamental
wewe calm me down and wewe pull me through
[chorus]
We are the lucky ones
We have one another

[chorus]
All alone in the setting sun
I'll have wewe and you'll have me
Gonna open my heart
Right at the scars
Listen up
Gonna do what I'm told
Go where I'm told
And listen up
Take a shot in the rain
Walk for the pain
And listen up
I tried all the way...
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Gonna soften the blow
Soften the blow
And give it up
I saw the surprise
The look in your eyes
I gave it up
Gonna be who I am
Be who I am
And give it up
I tried all the way...
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Ah, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Ah, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
It's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Ah, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me
Oh, it's all better now, it's all better now
Wait for me, wait for me

I've been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I can't reach
wewe know that I could use somebody
wewe know that I could use somebody
Someone like you, and all wewe know, and how wewe speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
wewe know that I could use somebody
wewe know that I could use somebody
Someone like you
Off in the night, while wewe live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make wewe notice
I hope it's gonna make wewe notice
Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me, somebody
I'm ready now [4x]
Someone like you, somebody [3x]
I've been roaming around,
Always looking down at all I see
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I can't reach
wewe know that I could use somebody
wewe know that I could use somebody
Someone like you, and all wewe know, and how wewe speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
wewe know that I could use somebody
wewe know that I could use somebody
Someone like you
Off in the night, while wewe live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make wewe notice
I hope it's gonna make wewe notice
Someone like me
Someone like me
Someone like me, somebody
I'm ready now [4x]
Someone like you, somebody [3x]
I've been roaming around,
Always looking down at all I see
