Blind Love
Navigating the Maze of Unrequited Love with Malcolm Nuna's 'Blind Love'
Lyrics
I'm the one that you call when your boy no dey
I am the person you turn to when your boyfriend is unavailable.
When he acts like ein mind no dey
When he behaves as if he doesn't care.
The one you fit tell all your problems ei
The one you can confide in about all your problems.
Mi do wu pahn but your mind no dey I've been friend zoned
I express my feelings, but you don't reciprocate; I'm in the friend zone.
I did everything I could do but wenhu
I did everything I could, but it was in vain.
We started off as close friends
We started our relationship as close friends.
And we're still friends
And we remain friends despite the situation.
