Sabali (Paul Epworth Mix) Lyrics
Amadou & Mariam
Lyrics
We came to have fun with music
The world is a place of amusement
We have a good time doing that.
Audience!
Patience! Patience is worth everything!
Patience! Patience is good.
If you love someone, patience is worth everything
If you love a man, patience is worth everything
If you love a woman, patience is worth everything
Patience, patience, patience is good.
Baby, I’m talking to you
With you, baby, life is beautiful
With you, baby,
This is for life.
Baby I give you a great big kiss
I give you a great big kiss
I hug you hard
Bye-bye!
