Kenya Talks

Hey lady, you lady, cursing at your life
You're a discontented mother and a regimented wife
I've no doubt you dream about the things you'll never do
But, I wish someone had talked to me
Like I wanna talk to you.....

Oh, I've been to Georgia and California and anywhere I could run
I took the hand of a preacher man and we made love in the sun
But I ran out of places and friendly faces because I had to be free
I've been to paradise but I've never been to me

Please lady, please lady, don't just walk away
'Cause I have this need to tell you why I'm all alone today
I can see so much of me still living in your eyes
Won't you share a part of a weary heart that has lived million lies....

Oh, I've been to Nice and the Isle of Greece while I've sipped champagne on a yacht
I've moved like Harlow in Monte Carlo and showed 'em what I've got
I've been undressed by kings and I've seen some things that a woman ain't supposed to see
I've been to paradise, but I've never been to me

[spoken]
Hey, you know what paradise is?
It's a lie, a fantasy we create about people and places as we'd like them to be
But you know what truth is?
It's that little baby you're holding, it's that man you fought with this morning
The same one you're going to make love with tonight
That's truth, that's love......

Sometimes I've been to crying for unborn children that might have made me complete
But I took the sweet life, I never knew I'd be bitter from the sweet
I've spent my life exploring the subtle whoring that costs too much to be free
Hey lady......
I've been to paradise, (I've been to paradise)
But I've never been to me

(I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(I've been to Nice and the isle of Greece while I've sipped champagne on a yacht)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(I've been to cryin' for unborn children that might have made me complete)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
(I've been to Georgia and California, and anywhere I could run)
I've been to paradise, never been to me
CHARLENE....

Who's that lady? Who's that lady?
Beautiful lady, who's that lady?
Lovely lady, who's that lady?
Real fine lady, who's that lady?

Hear me callin' out to you
'Cause it's all that I can do
Your eyes tell me to pursue
But you say look yeah but don't touch,
baby Nah, nah, nah don't touch

Who's that lady? Who's that lady?
Sexy lady, who's that lady?
Beautiful lady,who's that lady?
Real fine lady,who's that lady?

I would dance upon a string
Any d38252762d3d4fd229faae637fd13f4et she'd wanna bring
I would give her anything
If she would just do what I say
Come 'round my way baby, shine my way

Who's that lady? Who's that lady?
Beautiful lady, who's that lady?
Lovely lady, who's that lady?
Real fine lady, who's that lady?

I would love to take her home
But her heart is made of stone
I would keep on keepin' on
If I don't she'll do me wrong Do me wrong, yeah

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,
And sorry I could not travel both
And be one traveler, long I stood
And looked down one as far as I could
To where it bent in the undergrowth;

Then took the other, as just as fair,
And having perhaps the better claim,
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;
Though as for that the passing there
Had worn them really about the same,

And both that morning equally lay
In leaves no step had trodden black.
Oh, I kept the first for another day!
Yet knowing how way leads on to way,
I doubted if I should ever come back.

I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference.

Twasnt me!

This is sickly romantic I don't feel anything. I don't know how you do it Petals.

If loving you is wrong
Then my heart knows not what is right
I cry myself to sleep
Every second of the night
What is there to do?
What is there to say?
I know I can't have you
But still I give my heart away

I�d walk a thousand miles
And cry a thousand tears
Just to know your love
Will be waiting for me
But what is there to feel?
When you don�t feel the same?
I know I can�t have you
But still I give my love away

You are my dream come true
I wished upon a star for you
But what am I to know?
If you really love me so
I know I can�t have you
But still I give myself away

Imanit, these lyrics are too sad. You need to woo Petals better like sweep her off her feet. Crying yourself to sleep over love is unmanly. Man up and sweep her off her feet. Good luck.

How the sojourn was pleasant, verily
It was love veri, verily verily.

Verily lovely

How can I explain
that your lips
entice me to sin?
Your embrace
is more than I can stand.
Filling the void
in my heart
undercover.
Making me cheat
on my man.
You seem to just
flow with my style
I suppose
our souls
are one in the same.
I cry
when our meeting
is over.
Breast trob when
you whisper my name.
This attraction has got
my head spinning.
My every reaction
is a result
of yours.
Coming in
early in the mornings
just to see you.
Sweat straight
cumming
our my pores.
I can't believe
our friendship
has evolved
into one
with such admiration
and respect.
I wish we could be
partners now.
But I hope
our lives
become one
in the next.
by Alonda Alloway

Yes I
I'll never forget the things you taught me
No I, I'll never forget the vibes you gave me
The heat of your sun and the sound of your streets
Still live in me, your people, your people, the smile of their children (I love you) oh Africa, love Africa
(I love you) from the deepest of my heart
(I love you) oh Africa, love Africa
(I love you)
I know you could be Zion on Earth
Yes I know you could be Zion on Earth But Babylon wickedness drives you in a mess
And let your children suffer So I love you...oh Love you

A look that grabs my soul
And holds it captive.
A glance that locks in gaze,
Probing, reaching, digging.
Stealing what does not belong to it.
Dark and deep,
penetrating, enveloping,
mesmerizing, intoxicating,
Verboten.
Why? What is this dance?
This dance played with sight?
It is like you bow and extend your hand
Only to pull it back at my curtsey of acknowledgment.
Close your eyes.
Set me free from this enchantment
And spell.
Stop stealing my affection
and wasting it on your fantasies
That leave me mourning your desire.

T'was in the Dark that i learnt the Tact
You started to bark but it was only an Act
i thought there is another lad and i started to pull Back.
But you brought me back when i thought i was Sacked
Twas not a bark but a laugh, it was Stark.
A laugh of pleasure there in the Dark.
