Like Lyrics

Like a diamond seeks the light
Like a starling to the sky
Like a newborn to the breast

Like a martyr to the test
Like green leaves to the sun
You and I belong

A king does to his realm
A general to his men
A moth does to the flame
Or a queen to her domain

La, la, la, la, la

Like a battered T-shirt
Suspended on the washing line
My nerves are wrung
Words have never been this difficult to say

I drip-drop to dry in the afternoon sun
Moods changing like colors
I run, there's nowhere to run to
Except back to you

Like a diamond seeks to the light
Like a starling to the sky
Like a newborn to the breast

Like a martyr to the test
Like green leaves to the sun
You and I belong

A king does to his realm
A general to his men
A moth does to the flame
Or a queen to her domain

Ime fambe, iwe terere
(I walk, you follow)
Like a drum counts to the time

My heart beats for you
Two steps forward
I take two steps back
For you
