Distant City Lights: A Love Journey Beyond Borders
Lyrics
1, 2, 3, 4
The speaker attempted to use FaceTime but faced connectivity issues due to poor WiFi.
I tried to call you on FaceTime
-But the WiFi
-Was really bad
The poor connection prevented the speaker from seeing the other person's face, leading to sadness.
Now I can't see your face
-That made me really sad
-Could we send longer texts with few more words
Expressing a desire for longer texts to understand and stay connected with the other person's world.
Let me know what's going on in your world
-While I'm half a world away
The speaker is physically distant, being halfway across the world.
I wish you could see
Expressing a longing for the other person and the wish to share the experience of beautiful city lights together.
These pretty city lights
-I wish you were here
-So I could hold you tight
-Then you would know
-How much I love you so
-But for now, I'm far away from home
Reiterating the distance from home but suggesting a shared experience with others in a similar situation.
But for now, we're far away from home
-Big up Justice, Eshe, Poupsy and Gembi
Shouting out and blessing specific individuals, expressing love for them.
KB, Mr. Big and Big Bambi
-Can't forget my Baab and my Pinksy
-Oh Jah bless my Ely
-I say I love you so
Declaring love and faith that the other person's love will guide the speaker home.
And that much I man know
-Your love will guide I home
-Every tear I cry for you
Expressing deep emotions, stating there is no more room for tears, and the love received is overwhelming.
In my heart there's no more room
-Your love consumes me
-Wish they could see
Repeating the desire for the other person to experience the city lights and the speaker's love.
These pretty city lights
-Wish they were here
-So I could hold them tight
-Then they would know
-How much I love them so
-But for now I'm far away from home
Reiterating the physical distance from home.
Said I Wish you could see
Re-emphasizing the speaker's wish for the other person to witness the city lights and feel the love.
These pretty city lights
-I wish you were here
-So I could hold you tight
-Then you would know
-How much I love you so
-But for now I'm far away from home
Final repetition of being far away from home, reinforcing the theme of distance and longing.
But for now I'm far away from home
-But for now I'm far away from home
-But for now I'm far away from home
