Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
I had a bad habit
– Nganginomkhuba omubi
Of missing lovers past
– Abathandi abalahlekile esikhathini esidlule
My brother used to call it
– Umfowethu wayevame ukukubiza
“Eating out of the trash”
– “Ukudla emfucumfucwini”
It’s never gonna last
– Ngeke kuhlale isikhathi eside
I thought my house was haunted
– Ngangicabanga ukuthi indlu yami yayihlushwa
I used to live with ghosts
– Ngangihlala nemimoya
And all the perfect couples
– Futhi bonke imibhangqwana ephelele
Said, “When you know, you know”
– Wathi, ” Uma wazi, uyazi”
And, “When you don’t, you don’t”
– Futhi, ” Uma ungakwenzi, awukwenzi”
And all of the foes, and all of the friends (Ha, ha)
– Futhi zonke izitha, futhi bonke abangane (ha, ha)
Have seen it before, they’ll see it again (Ha, ha)
– Bakubonile ngaphambili, bazophinde bakubone (ha, ha)
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
– Ukuphila kuyingoma, iphela lapho iphela
I was wrong
– Nganginephutha
But my mama told me, “It’s alright
– Kodwa umama wangitshela, ” kulungile
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
– Wawudansa phakathi nokushaywa umbani
Sleepless in the onyx night
– Ukungalali ebusuku be-onyx
But now, the sky is opalite, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
– Kodwa manje, isibhakabhaka si-opalite, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, my Lord
– O, Nkosi yami
Never made no one like you before
– Angikaze ngenze muntu onjengawe ngaphambili
You had to make your own sunshine
– Kwakudingeka uzenzele ilanga lakho
But now, the sky is opalite, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh”
– Kodwa manje, isibhakabhaka si-opalite, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh”
You couldn’t understand it
– Awukwazi ukukuqonda
Why you felt alone
– Kungani uzizwa uwedwa
You were in it for real
– Wawukuyo ngempela
She was in her phone
– Wayesefonini yakhe
And you were just a pose
– Futhi wawumane nje uyisimo
And don’t we try to love love? (Love love)
– Futhi asizami yini ukuthanda uthando? (Uthando uthando)
We give it all we got (Give it all we got)
– Sinikeza konke esinakho (Sinikeze konke esinakho)
You finally left the table (Uh, uh)
– Ekugcineni ushiye itafula (Uh, uh)
And what a simple thought
– Futhi yeka umcabango olula
You’re starving ’til you’re not
– Ulambile kuze kube yilapho ungekho
And all of the foes, and all of the friends (Ha, ha)
– Futhi zonke izitha, futhi bonke abangane (ha, ha)
Have messed up before, they’ll mess up again (Ha, ha)
– Badidekile ngaphambili, bazophinde badideke (ha, ha)
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
– Ukuphila kuyingoma, iphela lapho iphela
You move on
– Uyaqhubeka
And that’s when I told you, “It’s alright
– Futhi yilapho nganitshela khona, ” kulungile
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
– Wawudansa phakathi nokushaywa umbani
Sleepless in the onyx night
– Ukungalali ebusuku be-onyx
But now, the sky is opalite, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
– Kodwa manje, isibhakabhaka si-opalite, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, my Lord
– O, Nkosi yami
Never met no one like you before
– Angikaze ngihlangane nomuntu onjengawe ngaphambili
You had to make your own sunshine
– Kwakudingeka uzenzele ilanga lakho
But now, the sky is opalite, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh”
– Kodwa manje, isibhakabhaka si-opalite, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh”
This is just
– Lokhu kumane nje
A storm inside a teacup
– Isiphepho ngaphakathi kwenkomishi yetiye
But shelter here with me, my love
– Kodwa phephela lapha nami, thando lwami
Thunder like a drum
– Ukuduma njengedrum
This life will beat you up, up, up, up
– Lokhu kuphila kuyokushaya, phezulu, phezulu, phezulu
This is just
– Lokhu kumane nje
A temporary speed bump
– I-speed bump yesikhashana
But failure brings you freedom
– Kodwa ukwehluleka kukulethela inkululeko
And I can bring you love, love, love, love (Love)
– Futhi ngingakulethela uthando, uthando, uthando (Uthando)
Don’t you sweat it, baby, it’s alright
– Awuyithukuthelisi, baby, kulungile
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
– Wawudansa phakathi nokushaywa umbani
Oh, so sleepless in the onyx night
– Oh, ngakho-ke ungalali ebusuku be-onyx
But now, the sky is opalite, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh
– Kodwa manje, isibhakabhaka si-opalite, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, my Lord
– O, Nkosi yami
Never met no one like you before (No)
– Ungalokothi uhlangane nomuntu onjengawe ngaphambili (Cha)
You had to make your own sunshine
– Kwakudingeka uzenzele ilanga lakho
But now, the sky is opalite, oh-oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
– Kodwa manje, isibhakabhaka si-opalite, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
