Molambo
I know you will say
That it's all a lie, that it can't be
That after all he did to me
I could never accept him again
I know that by doing so
I expose myself to all of your contempt
I'm sorry, but know this
He came back and stayed with me
He came back to ease the longing
The tremendous longing that never left me
That didn't give me a moment's peace
Since the day he left me
He came back to prevent madness
From turning me into just any rag
This time he stayed forever
If God wills
