Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh it's okay to take our chances
So drop it all and runaway with me
Me hee hee hee, me
Me hee hee hee hee
We could start again up in Amsterdam
Or any city that you wanna be
Be heee hee hee be
Be heee hee hee hee
[Chorus]
Simanjɔle, wɔtsɛ tsɔ
They turned their back on us
While **** after us
Hani wɔ fei wɔ ya
Hani wɔ fei wɔ ya
Mankɛ kɛ wɔ shi shiaa
We'll make it to the other side
Hand in hand, Bonny Clyde type shit my dear
[Verse 2]
Go anywhere we wanna be
Promise me like me believe
Straight out of a movie scene
We could make it out tonight
Say hello, say more goodbye
[Chorus]
We could live large in LA
Pick shuttles to Spain
Drink beer in Berlin
We'll find a way
Each city a day
We could go to Joburg
You know I'll hold your bags
You know I'll hold your hand
[Verse 3]
Simanjɔle, wɔtsɛ tsɔ
They turned their back on us
While **** after us
Hani wɔ fei wɔ ya
Hani wɔ fei wɔ ya
Mankɛ kɛ wɔ shi shiaa
We'll make it to the other side
Hand in hand, Bonny Clyde type shit my dear
[Verse 4]
I ain't gotta to tell you why we gotta get away from here
Searching for your peace of mind in a place of war ain't even a bit ideal
Atsawɔ shi tamɔ juloi
When all we wanted was to live
Mɔm min ni ma ma mɔ omin
Kaya ni oshi mi we can always find a way my dear
[Outro]
Oh it's okay to take our chances
So drop it all and runaway
And runaway with me
Runaway with me
Runaway with me
Me eee eee
