(Guitar melody)
Nna, listen to the rhythm of my heart
Adesewa, you are my morning star
The sun rises over the Enugu hills, but it’s dark without you
I am counting every second, waiting for the moment you pull through
My palm wine is sweet, but it lacks the flavor of your touch
I have been patient, Adesewa, I am missing you so much
Time is a healer, they say, and I know that all will be well
Your love is a story, a beautiful story that I want to tell
Adesewa, oh Adesewa, my heart is beating just for you
I am waiting in the shadows, waiting for your love so true
All will be well, oya, the seasons will surely change in our favor
Adesewa, my darling, you are the only one I want to savor
Yes, all will be well with time, my omalicha
My love for you grows deeper, like the roots of the Iroko tree
I keep the porch light burning, watching the Lagos rain fall down
Thinking of the way you smile, the prettiest girl in the whole town
No wahala, no stress, I know the path will clear for us to meet
Until that day, I keep your memory in every song, so sweet
Chai, the longing is heavy but my hope is stronger than the tide
With you by my side, Adesewa, there is nowhere else I want to hide
Adesewa, oh Adesewa, my heart is beating just for you
I am waiting in the shadows, waiting for your love so true
All will be well, oya, the seasons will surely change in our favor
Adesewa, my darling, you are the only one I want to savor
Yes, all will be well with time, my omalicha
My love for you grows deeper, like the roots of the Iroko tree
Time is moving slow, but the rhythm is steady and true
Every step I take brings me closer to being with you
Omo, the distance is just a test of the fire in my soul
When you arrive, Adesewa, my broken pieces will be whole
So let the stars align, let the morning dew wash away the pain
I will be here, waitin' for the sunshine to break through the rain
Isi ewu on the table, a feast waiting for your return
In my heart, for you Adesewa, the eternal candle will burn
Chop life when we meet, we go celebrate under the moon
I know that our time is coming, and it is coming very soon
Adesewa, oh Adesewa, my heart is beating just for you
I am waiting in the shadows, waiting for your love so true
All will be well, oya, the seasons will surely change in our favor
Adesewa, my darling, you are the only one I want to savor
Yes, all will be well with time, my omalicha
My love for you grows deeper, like the roots of the Iroko tree
All will be well with time, Adesewa
Just you and me, that’s all I need
My omalicha, the wait is almost over
Chai, Adesewa, you are the one
