Verse
Everyday I grow to love you
You are my world
Baby, I, I grow to love you
There is no one like you in this world
Cuz you are my sun, my moon, my stars
You are my clouds of rain
You bring me joy and sometimes pain
But I'll stay with you till death do us part
And I am saying this 'cause I love you

Chorus
Uuuh, I love you (I love you)
Uuuh, I love you

Verse
Darling I, I grow to love you
You are a blessing from above
Darling I, I grow to love you
There is none but you for me, I know

Repeat Chorus

I waited long, day after day
For love to come my way
My eyes is looking, my heart's desire
A very special man (3x)

Chorus
I'm burning up (2x)
My heart's on fire
I'm burning up, I'm burning
I'm burning up

And when he gets here, strong and sincere
With stars in his eyes
And the way he talks
Holds me when I fall
He'll be my special man (3x)

Repeat Chorus 3x

Conversation - phone ringing
Man: Fire station
Officer Stones speaking
Woman: Help, help, I'm on fire
I'm on fire
Man: Be cool, honey

Oliver Mtukudzi - the concert man

Oliver Mtukudzi chimurenga zimbabwe music african concert I saw Oliver Mtukudzi perform over the weekend in San Francisco (Yoshi's). I missed a chance to see him perform once and after my friends who attended that concert praised him, I decided not to miss the Tuku man if he came to perform somewhere near me. The jury is out on Tuku, he's great in concert. The man was full of energy, he was great on his guitar and his Black Spirits band backed him up really well.

Oliver Mtukudzi is the best-selling artiste in Zimbabwe and probably its most famous musician. Tuku, as he is affectionately called, was the first African musician to feature on the cover of the TIME AFRICA magazine in April 2003. The central article was entitled 'The People’s Voice?' and talked about how Zimbabwean musicians sing about change amidst all the problems in the country.
