Sweet sparrow, I miss your song
Why have you been gone for so long?
I know you're out there somewhere flying on your own
When you're done with trouble find your way back home
I know the wind is rising throwing everything
Tears, clouds and ashes make it hard to sing
I'll be your refuge, come into my arms
Let it rain
Let it rage
Stay with me
Stay my love
Let the pain
Wash away
Everything
We don't need
O duro de min
O duro ifè min
Tché oduro odemi
Remember the storm that broke the lake
We were so young, so afraid
Standing there in the doorway
Whispering to God
Praying for mercy
Oluwa dahoun
Mon gbadura yin
Oluwa dahoun
Mon gbadura yin
I looked at you through howling rain
We started singing that old song again
Our voices rising
Aburo min da houn
Turning and turning
Aburo min walé o
Verse over chorus
Let it rain
Let it rage
Stay with me
Wa lé ooo
Stay in love
Let the pain
Wash away
Everything
We don't need
Wa lé ooo
Let it rain
Let it rage
Stay with me
Wa lé ooo
Wait my love
Cause we gonna rise
we gonna rise up singing
This is how we move
Wa lé aburo
We gonna rise up singing
This is how we wait my love, yeah
We gonna rise up singing
Oh stay with me
Wa lé aburo
We gonna rise up singing
Wait with me my love
We gonna rise up singing
Sweet sparrow
Wa lé aburo
We gonna rise up singing
Sweet sparrow
We gonna rise up singing
Sweet sparrow
Oh okan min
Oh n'duro dé è o
Ko walé
Ki ifé min di mon rè o
Oh okan min
Oh n'duro dé è o
Ko walé
Ki ifé min di mon rè o
Oh okan min
