(*CHORUS*)

Omoboloasire-ay-ay-ay, I really

wanna see ya.

Omoboloasire-ay-ay-ay, Hang on because I'm on my way.

She is my lover.

From the heart of Africa-a.

Like no other,

Princess of Nigeria.

I was delirious,

Yeah, that some would beat me down.

Lady mysterious,

Like on the oasis that I found.

And then she smiled.

And then she came.

And when she spoke,

She told me her name..

*CHORUS*

Short-cut through Lagos.

Through that marketplace together.

Was getting serious,

I could've stayed that way forever.

As fate dictated,

I'll have to go back home to London.

My heart vibrated 'cause I knew,

I had to get to you.

*CHORUS*

Thinkin' that sad gate (?),

A flight from Ethro back to Lagos.

Desperate to see ya,

But they would not let me though,

What can I do?

Sent right to you.

And everyday,

My letters will say

*CHORUS*
