Yeah, oh, mmm
Richard, my love
You're my angel
I remember the day we met at Kulimatawa
I was hopeless, searching for a helping hand
You came along and saved me from the dark
Now I'm glad to be walking in your land
We used to walk from Kabwata to town
Telling stories, never letting each other down
Singing "how are you my friend" along the way
You kept me warm, kept the cold nights at bay
Oh Richard, my love, my soul, my best friend
You call me Bubu, on you I depend
When I am sad, you do everything to make me smile
With you, every moment is worth the while
You tell me "it is well" when the storms arise
I see heaven when I look into your eyes
Sometimes I'm wrong, but you always forgive
Showing me the beautiful way we should live
And when our little princess starts to cry
You sing a sweet song and wipe her eyes
You hold her close, she smiles at her dad
You're the best man this girl has ever had
I miss your touch, I miss your smile
My darling Richard, stay with me a while
Yeah, oh, my love
