Palm Wine Sunset (Version 3)

Verse

Gourd cup between us, one rim for two

Groundnut shells crack soft under your shoe

Generator light flicker gold and slow

Orange sky pouring into the calabash glow

Pre-Chorus

Who go finish, who go finish this last drop

Slow the pour, slow the pour, make e no stop

Tell me now, tell me now, you dey feel am too

No rush, no rush, I dey stay with you

Chorus

Palm wine sunset, melting slow

Palm wine sunset, watch it glow

Your lips still tasting where I know

Palm wine sunset, let it flow

Verse

Cowrie bracelet clicking soft on your wrist

Dust road glowing where the sun just kissed

Mosquito coil smoke curling round your hair

Radio crackle, old highlife filling the air

Pre-Chorus

Who go pour the last, who go pour the last

Slow the night, slow the night, make e no pass

Tell me now, tell me now, you dey feel am too

No rush, no rush, I dey stay with you

Chorus

Palm wine sunset, melting slow

Palm wine sunset, watch it glow

Your lips still tasting where I know

Palm wine sunset, let it flow

Bridge

Small drop landed on my hand, I no wipe am o

Sticky sweet like promise, make it show

Your voice low for my ear, dust settling still

Whatever dey come, I go drink my fill

Chorus

Palm wine sunset, melting slow

Palm wine sunset, watch it glow

Your lips still tasting where I know

Palm wine sunset, let it flow
