Used to Live Lyrics

USED TO LIVE

Lyrics

-Amai Kuda Yemoja Ile

I used to live in a tall white house

beside the sea where the waves roll in

and my ma, she called me love

and love is what she did

x2

I’m gonna sing a song for you, a song for you, a song for you

I’m gonna sing a song for you, a song made of gold

I’m gonna sing a song for you a song for you, a song for you

I’m gonna sing a song for you, a song made of silk

Won’t you love me, love me, love me

For for my song made of gold.

Won’t you love me, love me, love

for my song made of silk

I’m gonna fly away

said I’m gonna fly away!

I’m gonna fly away!

I’m gonna fly away

Hmmmmm badaey

Hmmmmmm, hmmm, hmmm

Long time ago, when the world was new

long time ago

when the world was new

I saw you there

I saw you there when the world was new

Long time ago

I saw you there

When the world was new

Long time ago

When the sky was blue

Long time ago

When the sky was blue

Said I felt the sun

Felt it shinin down

Said I felt the sun shinin down on you

Long time ago

When my heart was green

Long time ago

When my heart was green

Said I felt your love

I felt your love

Said I felt your love

Felt it coming over me

Long time ago

A long time ago

When the world was new

Oh, the days when the world was new

That’s when i first saw you

Oh the days when the world was new

That’s when i first saw you

I said well I’ve been workin

Working for the man

And that’s when I can’t feel you

Oh the days when the world was new

That’s when I first saw you
