[English] Don't tell me you love me if I haven't said it
Don't tell me you love me if I haven't said it
But my heart just can't rush
Malembe
In the fast lane, love makes you blind, I see clearly
No love story, there's no show
Time will tell if I chose you
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
For now, malembe, for now, malembe
How does that happen, oh?
Since when does love involve saying "I love you"?
Since when does she want to carry my baby, oh?
But I haven't planned on giving bottles, never
I'm too real, I can't pretend
I don't say sweet nothings all the time, slowly
Don't count on me to reassure you
If you insist, I'll leave gently, I'll leave
It's starting, be careful, you're going to ruin things
Cuddles need moderation, you're going to overdo it
You're rushing, it's too fast, you're going to fall
Why rush when we can walk?
Oh, baby, don't believe everything you see on TV
If you love me, you can be patient
If you love me, you can be patient
Don't tell me you love me if I haven't said it
Don't tell me you love me if I haven't said it
But my heart just can't rush
Malembe
In the fast lane, love makes you blind, I see clearly
No love story, there's no show
Time will tell if I chose you
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
For now, malembe, for now, malembe
What am I supposed to do, oh?
I need to make her understand, I'm not Romeo, that's right
I talk to her, she's stubborn
You're not listening, darling, you're stubborn
My dear, everything you're doing is pointless
It's pointless, baby
If I move away from you, you know, it's for your own good
Come on, little kembé
Oh, darling, let it go, you've known me like this already
You want me to make an effort, why?
I'm not going to change my life for you, never
Oh, baby, don't believe everything you see on TV
If you love me, you can be patient
If you love me, you can be patient
Don't tell me you love me if I haven't said it
Don't tell me you love me if I haven't said it
But my heart just can't rush
Malembe
In the fast lane, love makes you blind, I see clearly
No love story, there's no show
Time will tell if I chose you
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
We'll see, we'll see, we'll see if you're the one
Malembe
For now, malembe, for now, malembe
Hello, who's saying "who"?
Toko beta bango movement
Malembe
Na lingi, who's saying "who"?
Toko beta bango movement
Malembe
Oh, baby, you're going too fast, go slowly
