Bertha Phiri My Love (Remix)

Bertha, Bertha Phiri, my love

Years went by but you stayed in my mind

Now you back, and everything's right

Bertha, my Bertha, my love

We started so good, the fire was burning bright

You were my queen, you made everything feel right

But the wind came from nowhere, no warning at all

It scattered our bridge before we could build it tall

We went our separate ways, my heart torn in two

But through all those empty years, I only thought of you

Natotela for the memories, the love we once knew

Even when I tried to move on, my soul kept reaching for you

I had other lovers come, tried to fill the space

But none of them had your grace, your smile, your face

Mayo, I was lost without you, wandering in the dark

But God knew what He was doing, He kept that spark

Bertha Phiri, you're my love of my life

After all the pain, after all the strife

God brought you back to me, you're my destiny

Bertha Phiri, Bertha Phiri, you set my spirit free

Years came and went but you never left my mind

Bertha Phiri, you're one of a kind

My love of my life, my heart, my soul

Bertha Phiri, you make me whole

They say timing is everything, and now I believe

What was broken, what was lost, has finally been relieved

We scattered like leaves in the wind, but roots held strong

AndI knew deep down that to you, I belong

Every relationship I tried could never measure up

Cause they weren't you, they couldn't fill my cup

My mukwai told me, "Stop looking, just wait"

And then one day you walked back through my gate

The bridge that fell, we gonna build it strong

Better than before, where we both belong

No more wind can tear us down

Bertha Phiri, you're my crown

These years apart just proved it true

There was never anybody but you

Bertha Phiri, you're my love of my life

After all the pain, after all the strife

God brought you back to me, you're my destiny

Bertha Phiri, Bertha Phiri, you set my spirit free

Years came and went but you never left my mind

Bertha Phiri, you're one of a kind

My love of my life, my heart, my soul

Bertha Phiri, you make me whole

Ayy, when I thought it was over

Yoh, you came back around

Mwaiseni, this second chance

Bertha, we gonna make it count now

I tried to find you in every face

But nowhere felt like home

Til you came back, took your place

Now I'm never alone

To be honest, I have tried some love affairs

But none of them could ever compare

To the way you move, the way you speak

You're everything I need, you're the strength when I'm weak

Bertha Phiri, you're my soulmate, my ride or die

With you, I can touch the sky

The bridge we build now gonna last forever

Bertha Phiri and me, we together

Thank God for second chances, thank God for grace

Thank God I get to see your beautiful face

Every day I wake up and thank the Most High

For bringing my Bertha back to my life

No more wind, no more pain

Bertha Phiri, you're my sunshine after the rain

My love, my queen, my everything

Bertha Phiri, to you I give my ring

Bertha Phiri, you're my love of my life

After all the pain, after all the strife

God brought you back to me, you're my destiny

Bertha Phiri, Bertha Phiri, you set my spirit free

Years came and went but you never left my mind

Bertha Phiri, you're one of a kind

My love of my life, my heart, my soul

Bertha Phiri, you make me whole

Bertha, Bertha Phiri, my love

You're my love of my life

Bertha, Bertha Phiri

Forever, forever you mine

Ayy, yoh, Bertha Phiri

Thank God, thank God

My love, my love
