somi (jazz) - ankara sundays (live) lyrics
[intro]
this is a song about a woman who dares to dream
despite a difficult life
chika+chika+chika+chika+chika+chika+chika
[verse 1]
yesterday she said her prayers and thank yous
morning heat crowding her room and thighs
she could taste the salty fight begin
before it even started
yesterday the rains were rather heavy
woke her to attention once or twice
but there’s no water for her bath or tea now
and she could smell the hunger of her s+x and arms
[pre+chorus]
ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
[chorus]
ankara sunday, gonna put her lace on
forget about things for a while
ankara sunday, gonna put her best lace on
smile ’til the sun goes down
[verse 2]
yesterday she had okada wings on
flying home in prayer and dust
saw more sadness than she could have to
listen for mercy on bitter roads
yesterday’s night shadows were still hungry
but there’s no light to move the air
she could feel the sickness moving through her
and the mosquitoes resting on her belly
[pre+chorus]
ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
[chorus]
ankara sunday, gonna put her lace on
forget about things for a while
ankara sunday, gonna put her best face on
smile until the sun goes down
ankara sunday, gonna put her lace on
forget about things for a while
ankara sunday, gonna put her best face on
smile until the sun goes down
[post+chorus]
goes down
hopefully she’ll sleep
while generators hum one thousand lullabies
hopefully she’ll dream
while city lights exhale one thousand sighs
ooh+ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
ooh+ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
ooh+ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
ooh+ooh+ooh, ooh+ooh
[chorus]
ankara sunday, gonna put her lace on
forget about things for a while
ankara sunday, gonna put her best face on
smile until the sun goes down
ankara sunday, gonna put her lace on
forget about things for a while
ankara sunday, gonna put her best face on
smile until the sun goes down, down, down (hey)
