Richie, a decade later
Talent made in Haiti
Yo Alexandra
Making my way down town
Walking fast
Faces pass
And I'm home bound
Staring blankly ahead
Just making my way
Making a way through the crowd
And I need you, and I miss you
And now I wonder
If I could fall into the sky
Do you think time would pass me by
'Cause you know I'd walk a thousand miles
If I could just see you, tonight
Yeah La da da da da
Look at this face, I know the years are showing
Look at this life, still don't know where it's going
I don't know much, but I know I love you
And that may be all I need to know.
Look at these eyes they’ve never seen what matters
Look at these dreams, so beaten and so battered
I don't know much, but I know I love you.
And that may be all I need to know.

Konpa ti papa
Nia, my diva and Mr. Mac D
If I should die before I wake
It’s 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air, oh
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I could make you understand
But how do you expect me, to live alone with just me?
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air?
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
That's how I feel whenever you ain't there
There’s no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gon' be without me?
If you ain't here I just can't breathe
There’s's no air, no air
No air air, No air air
When you’re not with me
No air air, No air air

Lay a whisper on my pillow,
Leave the winter on the ground
I wake up lonely, is there a silence
In the bedroom and all around
Touch me now
I close my eyes and dream away
It must have been love, but it's over now – Cheri w renmen w
It must have been good, but I lost it somehow
It must have been love, but it's over now – Cheri w renmen w
From the moment we touched, until the time had run out
It must have been love, and it’s over now
It was all that I wanted, and I’m living without
It must have been love, and it’s over now
It’s where the water flows
It’s where the wind blows
It must have been love
Se lanmou ki ka fè e defè
Lanmou gen kòlè, gen mizè
It must have been love
Must have been love
Men konpa

Konpa ti papa
She’s so pretty, Roserbie
I hope you never lose your sense of wonder
You get your fill to eat but always keep that hunger
May you never take one single breath for granted
God forbid love ever leave you empty handed
I hope you still feel small when you stand beside the ocean
Whenever one door closes I hope one more opens
Promise me that you'll give faith a fighting chance
And when you get the choice to sit it out or dance
I hope you dance
I hope you dance
