The Nest Collective Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Ninakuwaza
Nakupenda
I want no other, yeah
The way I feel
Inanichanganya
Let's spend some time
My only lover, yeah
Inanizungusha
Kwa roho yangu
Hakuna mwengine
Is there a chance
Utanichagua?
I'll make you happy
My only lover, yeah
Was I imagining
You were my only lover?
I'd really like to know
Was I imagining
You were my only lover?
I'd really like to know
Baby, come over
(Was I imagining?)
Baby, come over
(You were my only lover)
Baby, come over
(I'd really like to know)
Baby, come over
(Come over)
(Come over)
You love it when
I call you by your name
I feel the same
And it's a mystery
I can't explain
How you have captured me
But here I am
I'll always be with you
Was I imagining
You were my only lover?
I'd really like to know
Was I imagining
You were my only lover?
I'd really like to know
Baby, come over
(Was I imagining?)
Baby, come over
(You were my only lover)
Baby, come over
(I'd really like to know)
Baby, come over
(I love you so)
(Unanichanganya, I want no other)
Ninakuwaza
Ninakupenda
Unanichanganya
I want no other
Come over, come over
Baby, won't you come over?
Come over, come over
Come over here
Ninakuwaza
Ninakupenda
Unanichanganya
I want no other
Come over, come over
Baby, won't you come over?
Come over, come over
Come over here
Come over, come over
Baby, won't you come over?
Come over, come over
Come over here
Unanichanganya
I want no other
Ninakupenda
Ninakupenda...
The lyrics to The Nest Collective's song Come Over express the desire of the singer to spend time with their love interest. The phrases “Ninakuwaza” and “Nakupenda” which mean “I'm thinking about you” and “I love you” respectively, are used to show the attraction and attachment the singer feels towards their lover. They also express that they want no other in their lives. The singer's emotional state is described as being conflicted by the way they feel, while there's a desire to be with the lover. The singer asks if there's a possibility of the love interest choosing them, hinting at the possibility of rejection. However, they assure the lover that they will make them happy.
The second part of the song highlights the mystery of love and how one can be captivated without explanation. The singer expresses their love for the lover and asks if they were just imagining being their only lover. They urge the lover to come over and be with them. The repetition of the phrases “Ninakuwaza”, “Nakupenda”, and “Unanichanganya” emphasize the singer's inner conflict and the intensity of their desire for the lover.
Some possible interpretations of the song could be that the singer is trying to rekindle a past relationship with their lover, or they’ve just met and are hoping to start a new relationship. Overall, the song highlights the vulnerability of falling in love and the desire for closeness with a lover.

God knows the number of times within the last 4 years I've played this song. Kenyans are a peculiar consumer of music. This is music.

Shame on you Kenya for not blowing these people up.
They need to go international.
