I remember tears streaming down your face
When I said, I’ll never let wewe go
When all those shadows almost killed your light
I remember wewe said, Don’t leave me here alone
But all that’s dead and gone and passed tonight

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt wewe now
Come morning light
wewe and I’ll be salama and sound

Don’t wewe dare look out your window darling
Everything’s on fire
The war outside our door keeps raging on
Hold onto this lullaby
Even when the music’s gone

Just close your eyes
The sun is going down
You’ll be alright
No one can hurt wewe now
Come morning light
wewe and I’ll be salama and sound


Just close your eyes
You’ll be alright
Come morning light,
wewe and I’ll be salama and sound…

Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty
Is the face in the mirror looking back at you
wewe walk around here thinking you're not pretty
But that's not true 'cause I know you

[Chorus]
Hold on, baby; you're losing it
The water's high, you're jumping into it
And letting go, and no one knows
That wewe cry; but wewe don't tell anyone
That wewe might not be the golden one
And you're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone

I guess it's true that upendo was all wewe wanted
'Cause you're givin' it away like it's extra change
Hoping it will end up in his pocket
But he leaves wewe out like a penny in the rain
Oh, 'cause it's not his price to pay
It's not his price to pay

[Chorus x2]

You're tied together with a smile
But you're coming undone, oh
Goodbye, baby
With a smile, baby, baby
