Shola Ama Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Oh
Mmm

Sure as the sun will shine
I need you in my life
You are the only one
Run to me (mm)
Bright as the deep blue sky
You are the light in my life
You are the only one
Run to me (mm)

You are the one for me
I need you to know you're my everything
For me there is nobody else
I love you so, baby
Run to me

When summer warms I hear your call (mm)
You hold the key to what I'm living for
Baby, run to me
Baby run to me

When autumn falls I need you more (I need you more yeah)
I still ain't found what I'm looking for
You are the only one
Run to me (mm)

When it is cold outside
You are the sun inside
You are the month of May
Run to me

Umm yeah

So many tears i've cried
You gave me back my pride
You are my joy each day
Run to me (uh)

You are the one for me
I need you to know you're my everything
For me there is nobody else
I love you so, baby

Run to me

When summer warms I hear your call (I hear your call yeah)
You hold the key to what I'm living for (what I'm living for)
Baby, run to me
You better run, run, run to me...

When autumn falls I need you more (I need you more whoa)
I still ain't found what I'm looking for
You are the only one
Run to me
Run

When summer warms I hear you call
You hold the key (yeah) to what I'm living for (na na na na, na na na na)
Run to me
Mmm...
Baby

When autumn falls I need you more
I still ain't found what I'm looking for
For you are the only one
Run to me
Uh





Baby won't you run...
