Blow
Verse 1
Sà kè sī fēng chuī zòu wǒ de xīn shì
Zara every note is a whisper of your name
Like bamboo swaying in a Shanghai breeze
You bring my restless soul to its knees
The brass is shining but you outshine the gold
A story waiting to be told
Tīng zhè xuán lǜ wǒ zhǐ wèi nǐ chī mí
Zara my queen let the horns sing your praise
Chorus
Wǒ ài nǐ Zara
You be the melody you be the horn
Mi swear gyal since the day you were born
Zara oh Zara you make the whole band play
Washing all my worries away
From the Great Wall to the Lagos streets down to the island sand
Zara you're the finest woman in the land
My Afro-Asian-Caribbean dream my Zara
Post-Chorus
Ba-da-ba-dap
Oh-oh
Zara Zara
Ba-da-ba-dap
Verse 2
Oya see Zara she dey enter the place
When the horn section blow I just look at her face
No be lie baby you be the main attraction
Got me under your spell it's a sweet reaction
See the way she moves to the trumpet sound
Best thing in the world yeah I finally found
Odo mi you sweet like palm wine and brass
When you move your body you too much class
If they ask me who I love I go tell them loud and clear
