We could play a little truth or dare,
We could find a diamond in your hair,
We could travel on the road to hell,
I would give you my heart if I could,
I would give everything if I could
Did the sun come up too soon?
Did you want to fly around the moon?
Did you have a fight and lose your cool?
I would give you my heart if I could,
I would do anything if I could
If I could
Say you would be mine
Say you could be mine, you could be mine
Say you would be mine
All your towers may tumble around you,
I will build you a house out of wood,
If you're feeling alone on this highway,
I'll walk beside you until kingdom come,
Take the solar express to wherever,
I will buy you a star when we're there...

and I'm not afraid to be on my own, so that's that
i won't be tripping, you know i'm living
some books I'm skipping if I know it's not worth it at all
I just pick up and I fall
sometimes it's taking its toll, yeah
yeah, I feel it in the air
and I know it's there
when my vision gets clear
know that I don't care
na kama hunipendi enda pande ile
sema kama hunipendi enda pande ile
CHORUS
watasema wachoke, yoh
watasema wachoke, yeah
watasema wachoke, yoh
watasema wachoke, yeah
things will be alright
you'll know my name
you know my heart
(wale wanaotutesa)
you'll know my name
(kucheka huku tunalia)
you know my spirit
you know my spirit
(siku zao zitafika)
you know my heart

Just a Band Nairobi, Kenya
Just a Band are Blinky Bill, Dan Muli, Jim Chuchu and Mbithi Masya. The Kenyan outfit began making music in 2008, coming to be known for their genre-bending sounds and playful music videos. In 2016, after almost a decade of gigs and exhibitions around the world, the group went on a hiatus. Just a Band reunited in 2020; older, still starry-eyed, charging forward on new voyages in sound and sight. ... more
