Tedddy afro Borderline Heartbeat

Intro

Oh oh oh

Oh Khartoum

Tizita

Verse 1

Nile winds wailing

Deep desert dust on my coat

Crossed the border through the green scrub

Scent of incense burning slow

Pre-Chorus

Searching for the song you sing

Heart is pounding

World is spinning

I found my rest within your eyes

Chorus

My Sudanese flower blooming in the sand

My Sudanese flower holding my hand

Across the Abay to the Blue water tide

My Sudanese flower with nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide

Verse 2

Amber silk scarves

Laughing under the tall acacia trees

Stolen glances in the busy market stalls

Painted sketches of our hidden peace

Pre-Chorus

Searching for the song you sing

Heart is pounding

World is spinning

I found my rest within your eyes

Chorus

My Sudanese flower blooming in the sand

My Sudanese flower holding my hand

Across the Abay to the Blue water tide

My Sudanese flower with nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide

Bridge

Different tongues but a single beat

Bitter mountains

Burning heat

Tender soul and a quiet soul and a distant soul

The art is how I keep you whole

Chorus

My Sudanese flower blooming in the sand

My Sudanese flower holding my hand

Across the Abay to the Blue water tide

My Sudanese flower with nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide

Nowhere to hide

Post-Chorus

Ouh ouh

Melodies for Khartoum

Ouh ouh

Sitt al-banat

My Tizita dream
