It’s Sunday again, standard day
This silence feels too close to me
I’m drowning in heavy thoughts today
Just because I can’t be where you are, boza
This distance between us, ati it feels so big
Like a wall we cannot break
It’s pulling me down, pulling me deep
And there’s nothing I can do for us today

If only we could take those steps
And meet each other halfway
Hope can chase the darkness away
So that healing can begin, yamene
If only we could hold hands today
So this pain can just fade away
Let a new time find us here
And the beauty of love will win again

We are standing so far apart
Hearing so many stories from people
About a God of mercy, Mulungu wamuseko
That everyone has been searching for
But if we feel the same spirit around
Surrounding all of us everywhere
How can we be losing ourselves in hate
Awe, the answer is right here near us

If only we could take those steps
And meet each other halfway
Hope can chase the darkness away
So that healing can begin, yamene
If only we could hold hands today
So this pain can just fade away
Let a new time find us here
And the beauty of love will win again

I know it’s so hard, it’s heavy
To ask for forgiveness, to say pepani
To open up and say what we really need
Why are we so heartless, kanshi
Every word from the other sounds wrong
But truth has so many faces
Why are we so heartless
Trapped in this bitter fight

When will we finally be ready

We can take these steps right now
We can meet each other halfway
Hope will chase the darkness away
And the healing is starting today
We’re joining our hands right now
So this pain will finally go away
Let a new time find us here
And the beauty of love will win, love will win

We can take these steps right now
We can meet each other halfway
Hope will chase the darkness away
And the healing is starting today
We’re joining our hands right now
So this pain will finally go away
Let a new time find us here
And the beauty of love will win, love will win
