Wosa wosa na hwana ne ba

Beginning to think I don't need another lover

Found you today I don't wanna go back

I don't want to be with a Casanova

Yes I yes I will never ever

Forgive if you do the least I will find another

Why do you want to leave when you know it's you, you-ou-ou

But there is something about you I need

Baby I wake up with you in my dreams

I for dey sing you some Alicia Keys

Please

Baby hmm

And now I know that I can never love another nigga

It's you and I forever baby this's now or never

Forget the issues now we cool

M'akoma mu wodin bɔ mu

I know we meant to spend the rest of life together baby

The day you wore the brown outfit

Was when I knew I had fallen

Without you I don't know if I can breathe again or feel again I'm worried

Wosa wosa na hwana ne ba

Beginning to think I don't need another lover

Found you today I don't wanna go back

I don't want to be with a Casanova

Yes I yes I will never ever

Forgive if you do the least I will find another

Why do you want to leave when you know it's you, you-ou-ou

But there is something about you I need

Baby I wake up with you in my dreams

I for dey sing you some Alicia Keys

Please

Baby hmm
