Xavier Naidoo

It was cold but she was lovely
I was told that she would never love me (yeah-yeah)
But still I hoped, the love I felt it could be trusted
So my case soon came to justice
I found out they had taken my rights long ago
What they gave in return wasn't nearly so
But how could I've known, never was I shown, little had I grown, inside I was torn
But her life's my concern
I long have ignored the fact that I love you but I can't anymore
Chorus
Oh my lady, gone for a year,
She told me maybe, that once she could stay here with me,
Oh she's alive in my heart, in my mind, in my soul (she)
There's a glow in my heart, in my mind, in my soul
There's a glow, there's a glow, there's a glow, there's a glow - there's a glow
Where, my lady, are you now
A love so sacred, still not allowed
Life is hard, sometimes life can be dreadfull
And this life, I guess is more than a handfull
In this war, we cannot use weapons (yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah)
And in this war, we can only learn lessons (ohh ohh)
They had taken unripe fruits from the tree and I learned my lesson when they gave them to me
More could I see clouds under me
I saw wars upon land I saw wars under sea
Chorus
Oh my lady, you're gone for a year
She told me maybe once she should stay here with me
Oh she's alive in my heart (in my heart), in my mind (in my mind), in my soul (in my soul)
there's a light in my heart, in my mind, in my soul
Oh there's a glow, there's a glow, there's a glow, there's a glow
Oh theres a glow
Oh my lady you're gone for a year,
Oh she told...
