When you try your best
But you don't succeed
When you get what you want
But not what you need
When you feel so tired
But you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

When the tears come streaming (Uhhh huuu)
Down your face (Ahhh haaa)
Cos you lose something (Uhhh huuu)
That you can't replace (Ahhh haaa)
When you love someone (Uhhh huuu)
But it goes to waste (Ahhh haaa)
Could it be worse? (Uhhh huuu ahhh)

Lights will guide (Haaaa)
You home (Ahaaa)
And ignite (Haaaa)
Your bones (Ahaaa)
And I will try (Haaa)
To fix you (Ahaaa)

The high up above (Uhhh huuu) (Thula)
Or down below (Ahhh haaa)
When you're too in love (Uhhh huuu) (Thula)
To let it go (Ahhh haaa)
But if you never try (Uhhh huuu) (Thula)
You'll never know (Ahhh haaa)
Just what you're worth (Uhhh huuu ahhh) (Thula)

Lights will guide (Haaaa)
You home (Ahaaa)
And ignite (Haaaa)
Your bones (Ahaaa)
And I will try (Haaa)
To fix you (Ahaaa)

...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya
Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya
...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya
Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya

...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya (Hoo oh oh)
Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya (Ohh hoo)
...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya (Ahh haa)
Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya (Ho oh oh) Mus'ulila

(...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Sondela
(Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Sondela
(...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Mus'ukukhala
(Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Mus'ukoyika

(...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Oh oh oh
(Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Sondela
(...khanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Bamb'isandla sam'
(Ukukhanya kuzokubonisa idlela eya ekhaya) Bamb'isandla sami
Sondela

(Tears stream) Mus'ukukhala
(Down your face) Mus'ukukhala
(When you lose something) Mus'ukukhala
(You cannot replace) Sula sul'izinyembezi
Tears stream
(Down your face) Sula
(And I) Sondela sondela
Ngiyohlale ngiseduze nawe

Tears stream
Down your face
I promise you
I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream (Ahaaaa)
Down your face
And I

Lights will guide
You home
And ignite
Your bones
And I will try
To fix you
