I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Adore wewe and want wewe so
I'm just a no one, with nothing to give wewe but oh

You, wewe buy her diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But believe me, dear, when I say
That she can give wewe the world
But she'll never upendo wewe the way
I upendo you
She can take wewe any place she wants
To fancy klabu and restaurants
where I can only watch wewe with
My nose pressed up against the window pane
I, I who have nothing

Must watch you, go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
But darling it is I
Who loves you
I upendo you

I, I who have no one
Adore wewe and want wewe so
I'm just a no one, with nothing to give wewe but oh

You, wewe buy her diamonds
Bright, sparkling diamonds
But believe me, dear, when I say
That she can give wewe the world
But she'll never upendo wewe the way
I upendo you
She can take wewe any place she wants
To fancy klabu and restaurants
where I can only watch wewe with
My nose pressed up against the window pane
I, I who have nothing
I, I who have no one
Must watch you, go dancing by
Wrapped in the arms of somebody else
But darling it is I
Who loves you
I upendo you

wewe alisema that I wasn't pretty
so I just believed you
wewe alisema that I wasn't special
so I lived that way
with critical gazes and brutal amazement
at how my reflection could be so imperfect
with all of my blemishes
how could somebody want me
But God loves ugly
He doesn't see the way I see
oh, God takes ugly
and turns it into something that is beautiful
apparently I'm beautiful
cause wewe upendo me
I tried to clean up the outside
all shiny and new
worked overtime to thin up and look right
but inside I knew
that deep in the bottom were secrets I thought I could try to ignore
old ghosts in my corridors never get tired of haunting the past that's in me
help me believe why wewe upendo me
when I know wewe see
wewe see everything
help me believe why wewe upendo me
when I know wewe see inside and wewe still say I'm beautiful
you're telling me I'm beautiful
you're screaming out, so beautiful
and I'm finding out I'm beautiful
you're making me so beautiful
and I can see I'm beautiful
'cause wewe upendo me
so I just believed you
wewe alisema that I wasn't special
so I lived that way
with critical gazes and brutal amazement
at how my reflection could be so imperfect
with all of my blemishes
how could somebody want me
But God loves ugly
He doesn't see the way I see
oh, God takes ugly
and turns it into something that is beautiful
apparently I'm beautiful

when I know wewe see
wewe see everything
help me believe why wewe upendo me

you're telling me I'm beautiful
you're screaming out, so beautiful
and I'm finding out I'm beautiful
you're making me so beautiful

She loved him like he was
The last man on Earth
Gave him everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up on her
Give a little then take it back
She'd tell him about her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
"You're crazy for believin'
You'll never leave the ground,"
He said. "Only angels know how to fly"
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man wewe ought to see her fly
One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note kwa the window
With the curtains blowin' in the breeze
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man wewe ought to see her fly
The last man on Earth
Gave him everything she ever had
He'd break her spirit down
Then come lovin' up on her
Give a little then take it back
She'd tell him about her dreams
He'd just shoot 'em down
Lord he loved to make her cry
"You're crazy for believin'
You'll never leave the ground,"
He said. "Only angels know how to fly"
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man wewe ought to see her fly
One Sunday morning
She didn't go to church
He wondered why she didn't leave
He went up to the bedroom
Found a note kwa the window
With the curtains blowin' in the breeze
And with a broken wing
She still sings
She keeps an eye on the sky
With a broken wing
She carries her dreams
Man wewe ought to see her fly
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who wewe are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of
Every mountain, sea and shore
wewe can hear from far and near
A world you've never, never heard before
And on a clear day
On that clear day
wewe can see forever, and ever, and ever, and ever more
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who wewe are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of
Every mountain, sea and shore
wewe can hear from far and near
A world you've never, never heard before
And on a clear day
On that clear day
wewe can see forever, and ever, and ever, and ever more
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who wewe are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of
Every mountain, sea and shore
wewe can hear from far and near
A world you've never, never heard before
And on a clear day
On that clear day
wewe can see forever, and ever, and ever, and ever more
On a clear day
Rise and look around you
And you'll see who wewe are
On a clear day
How it will astound you
That the glow of your being
Outshines every star
You'll feel part of
Every mountain, sea and shore

A world you've never, never heard before

On that clear day
wewe can see forever, and ever, and ever, and ever more
