Would wewe just listen and please don't say a word, just yet,
I'd like wewe to think back to the very first time we met,
How wewe felt around me? The memories we shared,
And just remember that once upon a time, wewe really cared.

Now think about how we parted, and how much I cried,
But please don't speak, remember that I never ever lied,
That I told wewe the honest truth about why we were to split,
But now I'd like wewe to know that my moyo broke bit kwa bit.

The pain was deep, unbearable and painful, for so many years,
I'll never forget all the sadness, all the uncontrollable tears,
Slowly I am rebuilding my life, I am content with what I've got,
And although it is hard I am beginning to forget what I have not.

wewe were a special part of my life that I will never forget,
A part of my life that broke my heart, but that I don't regret,
wewe gave me some happy memories that I'll keep in my heart,
Although sometimes I wish that wewe and I didn't have to part.

wewe were my first upendo and my true friend, that will always be so,
After all of the heartache, sadness and never ending pain, I know,
wewe and I had something special and that will never change,
Because I upendo wewe and loving someone else will always seem strange.

Would wewe just listen and please don't say a word, not ever,
I'd like wewe to remember that once upon a time, we alisema forever,
That I had hopes and dreams, that I was the one who threw them away,
And this is something I will always regret until my dying day.
