Chale, eii, listen to my heart
Zainab, wonim? This is for you
Zainab Bockarie, my one and only love
You stole my heart away, fit like a glove
But then you vanished, gone without a trace
Left me here searching for your beautiful face
It doesn't sweet me, the way you went away
I’m sitting here, counting every lonely day
Oyiwa, the silence is so loud
Searching for your shadow in the middle of the crowd
Zainab, my love, do you love Badara like before?
Tell me the truth, are you walking through my door?
I’m calling out to you, my heart is in doubt
Is this the love that we were dreaming about?
Zainab, wonim? Let me know, my baby
Can we find the spark, or are we just maybe?
I’m looking back at the past, the memories we made
Wondering if the colors have started to fade
I’m Badara, and I’m standing in the rain
Trying to wash away this heavy, hollow pain
I don’t know how to enter in your heart again
Is it a sunshine day or is it full of rain?
Chale, it’s hard, but I’m keeping the faith
Waiting for the day you appear like a wraith
Zainab, my love, do you love Badara like before?
Tell me the truth, are you walking through my door?
I’m calling out to you, my heart is in doubt
Is this the love that we were dreaming about?
Zainab, wonim? Let me know, my baby
Can we find the spark, or are we just maybe?
I’m in doubt if you’ll maintain what we started
Too many nights since the day we parted
I’m expecting something, a sign from your soul
Only your love can make a man feel whole
Ah ah, tell me, baby, are you still mine?
Let our stars once again start to align
If there is a chance for us to go back home
I promise no more will I ever roam
I’m writing this song, a call back from your man
Trying to understand the shifting of the sand
Badara is waiting, the love is still deep
Even in the secrets that I hold while I sleep
Chale, don’t leave me hanging on the line
Just say the word and make the sun shine
Zainab, my love, do you love Badara like before?
Tell me the truth, are you walking through my door?
I’m calling out to you, my heart is in doubt
Is this the love that we were dreaming about?
Zainab, wonim? Let me know, my baby
Can we find the spark, or are we just maybe?
Zainab, my baby, chop life with me again
Let’s end this waiting, let’s end the pain
Badara is calling, I’m waiting for you
Zainab, my heart, let our love be true
Oyiwa, yoo, I’m waiting for you.
