Went from cities to touch the suburbs
On the highway, but I'm barefoot
I need a map but not the destination
Need a compass but not a conversation
I want to run far from this grey town
You're on every street, marked on the ground
Not the meant and not the paint
Want the price but not the raise
I want the jump but not the height
Let me fall but catch me mid flight
I swam with sharks and beasts of the sea
Only went down for the company
Went down for the company
I forgot to mention:
That wewe would come back nyumbani when I call
Left no sign, nothing at all
Sorry wewe won't fit inside my heart
I wanted upendo without the build up
I need the rules but not the regulations
Want the wisdom but not the information
Need the light but not the heat of the day
Need your hands to onyesha me how to pray
I Lost the plot underneath the fire
Of all the dots and lines that took me higher
Away from traffic and smiles of tire
I like the nights but not the Tangled wires
Need the pulse to feel alive
All the world's just made it seem all quiet
This has all become far too loud
I like wewe zaidi when wewe don't make a sound
wewe will come back nyumbani when I call
Left no sign, nothing at all
Sorry wewe won't fit inside my heart
Won't wewe come light the way and wash this away
I wanted upendo without the build up
On the highway, but I'm barefoot
I need a map but not the destination
Need a compass but not a conversation
I want to run far from this grey town
You're on every street, marked on the ground
Not the meant and not the paint
Want the price but not the raise
I want the jump but not the height
Let me fall but catch me mid flight
I swam with sharks and beasts of the sea
Only went down for the company

I wanted upendo without the build up
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
It was where everyone could see
He belonged to someone, but not me
On his hand was a plain dhahabu ring
Plain dhahabu ring had a story to tell
It was one that I knew too well
And in my moyo it will never be spring
Long as he wears that plain dhahabu ring
Nighttime comes calling on me
I know why I'll never be free
I can't stop these teardrops of mine
I'm gonna upendo him till the end of time
Plain dhahabu ring has but one thing to say
I'll remember till my dying days
In my moyo it will never be spring
Long as he wears that plain dhahabu ring
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
It was where everyone could see
He belonged to someone, but not me
On his hand was a plain dhahabu ring
Plain dhahabu ring had a story to tell
It was one that I knew too well
And in my moyo it will never be spring
Long as he wears that plain dhahabu ring
Nighttime comes calling on me
I know why I'll never be free
I can't stop these teardrops of mine
I'm gonna upendo him till the end of time
Plain dhahabu ring has but one thing to say
I'll remember till my dying days
In my moyo it will never be spring
Long as he wears that plain dhahabu ring
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
Plain dhahabu ring on his finger he wore
