Say, say, say
What wewe want
But don't play games
With my affection
Take, take, take
What wewe need
But don't leave me
With no direction

All alone
I sit nyumbani kwa the phone
Waiting for you, baby
Through the years
How can wewe stand to hear
My pleading for you, dear
wewe know I'm crying

Now, go, go, go
Where wewe want
But don't leave me
Here forever
You, you, wewe
Stay away
So long, girl
I see wewe never

What can I do, girl
To get through to wewe
'Cause I upendo you, baby
Standing here
Baptised in all my tears
Baby, through the years
wewe know I'm crying

wewe never ever worry
And wewe never shed a tear
You're saying that my upendo ain't real
Just look at my face
These tears ain't drying

You, you, wewe
Can never say
That I'm not the one
Who really loves wewe
I pray, pray, pray
Every siku
That you'll see things, girl
Like I do

What can I do, girl
To get through to wewe
'Cause I upendo wewe baby
Standing here
Baptised in all my tears
Baby, through the years
wewe know I'm crying

Say, say, say
Say, say, say
Say, say, say,
Say, say, say
