[Verse 1]
I heard you got a brand new lover
And you've already moved on
I've been working hard far from home
I was hoping we could start again...
I Wasted my youth far in the mines
Working myself to the bone
You know I never had a choice
But try to make something out of myself
[Bridge]
I hold your photos to my chest
When the evening closes in
Whispering your favourite song
Just to get close to you
[Hook]
I am coming home my my my my lover
Taking the train downtown my my my baby
I will be waiting at the 1st avenue
Where we always met my my my lover
I am coming home my my my lover
Taking the train downtown my my my baby
I will be waiting at the 1st avenue
Where we always met my my my lover
Stimela, stimela, stimela ngithathe
Hawu stimela ngithathe ngenhliziyo yami
Hawu stimela, stimela, stimela ngithathe
Hawu stimela ngiphelelwe isikhathi mina
[Verse 2]
Darling it’s been a long time
And I am not shifting the blame
I get lost in the bottle
In the minefield dreaming of you..
And I am coming home to you baby
We’ll be dancing to Masekela and Makeba like we used to
[Hook]
I am coming home my my my my lover
Taking the train downtown my my my baby
I will be waiting at the avenue
Where we always met my my my lover
I am coming home my my my lover
Taking the train downtown my my my baby
I will be waiting at the rst avenue
Where we always met my my my lover
Stimela, stimela, stimela ngithathe
Hawu stimela ngithathe ngenhliziyo yami
Hawu stimela, stimela, stimela ngithathe
Hawu stimela ngiphelelwe isikhathi mina
[Outro]
Woza ungowami ungowam ungowami
Chekha ungowami ungowam ungowami
Woza ungowami ungowam ungowami
Chekha ungowami ungowam ungowami
