BY THE RIVER NIGER BRIDGE

By the river Niger Bridge we crossed path
Ever since my heart is waiting by the bridge to berth
My emotions are fragile and cold under the moon
But the stars lend me a smile to keep warm while looking out for you
Distance wouldn’t be a problem sharing my love with you
I stared at the birds, like you, they are so beautiful
As the cloud walks by, I wish she leaves me a footpath or a clue
I would travel from east to west everyday for you
Till a kiss from you reassures my heart my dreams will come through
