A song made by Dr.Ine Briggs
(Soft piano notes)
Yeah, ooh
Every man needs a soft place to land
When the street get hard
Oluwa, I dey look up to you
Lagos traffic heavy, my spirit feeling light
Been running all day, chasing paper in the night
But when I reach my gate, the room dey cold for skin
Thinking 'bout the person I really want to let in
Life is not a solo track, we need a harmony
Someone to share the jollof and the legacy
Work done finish, my head dey spin with worry
Need a shoulder for the house, Lord, I’m in a hurry
Oh God, bring them my way, the one for me
I don tire to dey walk this road solo, you see
After the stress and the ginger, I need a place to rest
To run into your arms, put my head upon your chest
I need someone to love, someone to hold me tight
Bring my person home, make everything alright
I see couples in the market, they dey laugh and they dey play
I dey look for my own blessing, hope I find it one day
It’s not just about the beauty or the money that we make
It’s the soul that dey understand the steps that I take
No wahala, I know your timing is the best
But I pray you answer this, put my longing heart to rest
I need a partner in crime, a friend when weather change
Don't let me stay alone, that life feel so strange
Oh God, bring them my way, the one for me
I don tire to dey walk this road solo, you see
After the stress and the ginger, I need a place to rest
To run into your arms, put my head upon your chest
I need someone to love, someone to hold me tight
Bring my person home, make everything alright
(Slow, stripped back)
Ife, where you dey?
My soul is waiting, my spirit is ready
Chukwu, hear my plea
I no fit do this life by myself again
Oh God, bring them my way, the one for me
I don tire to dey walk this road solo, you see
After the stress and the ginger, I need a place to rest
To run into your arms, put my head upon your chest
I need someone to love, someone to hold me tight
Bring my person home, make everything alright
Bring them my way, Lord
No more lonely nights, abeg
Odogwu, I dey wait for my own
(Piano fades out)
Just one love, that’s all I need.
