Fatima Songtext / Lyric

Picture the morning taste and devour,
we rise early pace up the hour,
streets is bustling their heart out,
you can't have the sweet with no sour. Spices herbs the sweet seent of flower,
she came out precisely the hour,
clouds disappear the sunshows the power,
no chance of a probable shower. I fell in love with my neighbor's daughter,
I wanted to protect and support her,
Never mind I'm just twelve and a quarter,
I had dreams beyond our border.

CHORUS


Is it true when they say all you need is love,
is it true?
That about those who have loved,
only to find that it's takenaway.
And why do they say
that the children have rights to be free,
to be free.
What about those who I've known,
whose memory stilllives inside of me.

Fatima,
What did the young man say,
Before he stole you away,
On that fafeful day Fatima,
Fatima,
Did he know your name,
Or the plans we made,
To go to New York City, Fatima.

.

And after school we stady the lessons,
I ask God to slow down the seconds,
he does the opposite that's what I'm guessing,
I better chill and count my own blessings.

Fatima Fatima, what is the matter,
how come you ain't come up the latter,
so we can be like there's no tomorrow.

She spoke Arabic and Swahili,
she'd say Upendo Anta Xabiibi,
you so bright you shine like my TV,
then one day she never came to meet me.

CHORUS


Is it true when they say all you need is love,
is it true?
That about those who have loved,
only to find that it's takenaway.
And why do they say
that the children have rights to be free,
to be free.
What about those who I've known,
whose memory stilllives inside of me.

Fatima,
What did the young man say,
Before he stole you away,
On that fafeful day Fatima,
Fatima,
Did he know your name,
Or the plans we made,
To go to New York City, Fatima.

Fatima,
What did the young man say,
Before he stole you away,
On that fafeful day Fatima,
Fatima,
Did he know your name,
Or the plans we made,
To go to New York City, Fatima.
