"Where are you from?
Where did we meet?
Do you remember the sound of the drum?
Do you remember the rhythm of my feet?”
Singing
I Love You
Touched by the future wing
Coloured by your peaceful hue
You give me strength
You take me higher
You make me go to any lengths
You are the one I admire
You listened to anything I had to say
You make me find the words
You don’t judge me in any way
You live the truth even if it hurts
You are the one I always wanted to get to know
You draw the background of my dreams in different light
You are the one that inspires me to grow
You told me that life shines different like the moon at night
“Where are you from?
Where did we meet?
Do you remember the sound of the drum?
Do you remember the rhythm of my feet?”
Singing
I Love You
Touched by the future wing
Coloured by your peaceful hue
You live in my memories now
You make me reminisce the African sun
You say I suffocate but didn’t drown
You don’t blame me leaving affairs undone
You and your beauty remind me of someone
You wonder where I saw you before?
You were the one in my dreams holding my son
You inspire my imagination so much more
Your children say ‘I Love You’ across the globe
Your children raise the East African heirs
Your beauty springs eternal like my hope
Your beauty shines with glare
“Where are you from?
Where did we meet?
Do you remember the sound of the drum?
Do you remember the rhythm of my feet?”
Singing
I Love You
Touched by the future wing
Coloured by your peaceful hue
I Love You
