Yeah, mmm
It’s been a long flight, baby
But I’m finally home with you
Touchdown back on the ground
I’ve been travelin' miles, been lookin' all around
But China to Ghana, the distance was wide
Yet you kept a steady flame deep inside
Every time I landed, you were there with a smile
Making every single weary mile worth the while
Your energy is healing, it’s a beautiful sight
You’re the only reason that I’m feeling alright
Oh, Akua, you’re the rhythm in my soul
Giving me pieces that finally make me whole
When I come back home, you’re the only place I stay
You wash all the shadows of the road away
Akua, my heart is full, it’s overflowing now
To love you forever, baby, that’s my vow
Yeah, you’re my steady ground
I remember the late nights, the phone calls so long
You were the melody inside of my song
Even through the static, I could feel your embrace
Just thinking 'bout the glow upon your face
You gave me your time, you gave me your heart
We’ve been connected, we were never apart
I see it in your eyes, the way that you care
I’m breathing easy now that I’m finally there
Oh, Akua, you’re the rhythm in my soul
Giving me pieces that finally make me whole
When I come back home, you’re the only place I stay
You wash all the shadows of the road away
Akua, my heart is full, it’s overflowing now
To love you forever, baby, that’s my vow
I don’t need the world, I just need this space
Lost in the wonder of your warm embrace
Mmm, come here, let me show you how it feels
To have a love that’s really, truly real
Every second counts when I’m holding your hand
Everything I need, you perfectly understand
So let the world spin, let the clock just tick
My love for you is something that will always stick
You supported my vision, you honored my flight
And now we’re glowing underneath the moonlight
I appreciate you more than words could explain
You’re the sunshine coming after the rain
Akua, my baby, yeah, you’re the one
Our life together has only just begun
Oh, Akua, you’re the rhythm in my soul
Giving me pieces that finally make me whole
When I come back home, you’re the only place I stay
You wash all the shadows of the road away
Akua, my heart is full, it’s overflowing now
To love you forever, baby, that’s my vow
Yeah, you’re the only one
Akua, my heart is yours
I love you, baby
Always here for you
Mmm, yeah.
