Cab Driver

The song about the, I wrote the song in Rwanda, 'cause I live there
While time, one part of the year
And you know, sometimes it gets so lonely cold and dark there
More often than not
One time I just stand and wait for a cab to come, this song came to me
I just throw my hands at him, "stop for me men"
Here we go

Standing in the rain
The cab come into view
Ask me where am I goin' to
Running for so long
Been gone too many nights
And my heart has paid the price

This ain't Heaven
And this ain't the life I bargained for, oh no, oh no
Reason for leaving
Isn't here inside this car
You know, I gotta get back to you

Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away
Too much time alone

Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away from my baby
Oh no

I need familiar streets
Tell me that you're near
Feeling like a stranger here
Oh, does the mirror show the miles on my face?
Am I goin' any place?

'Cause this ain't Heaven
This ain't the life I was waitin' for, oh no, oh no
Reason for leaving
Sure ain't here inside this car
You know I gotta get back to you

Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away
Too much time alone

Cab driver
Take me home
Spent too much time away from you, baby
From you babe

Cab driver (oh cab driver)
Take me home (take me home) hmm

Cab driver (cab driver)
Take me home (hey-hey, ha-haha)
(Huh huh huh)
I need to see the look on your face (I really need, need to see your face)
The kiss from your lips, oh, the taste, baby (the kiss from your lips, I really miss the taste)
Nothing waiting for me but a lonely room
Yeah, I gotta get back to my baby, soon (gotta get back soon)
Soon, soon, oh baby

Oh, cab driver take me home
Spent too much time away
Too much time alone

Cab driver
Take me home (gotta take me home)
Spent too much time away from my, baby

Cab driver
Take me home
I don't wanna go back to the empty room
Gotta get back to my baby

Cab driver
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home
Take me home

Gotta take me home
I said I gotta get back
I gotta get back to my baby real soon
Gotta get back
Oooh getting back eh
I gotta get back to my baby soon
I gotta get back

Gotta get back (oh oh ho)
(Gotta get back) gotta get back to my baby
Gotta get back
Gotta get back to my baby
Gotta get back (hey you know how you can tell when you've been on the road too long, I'll tell you)
Gotta get back to my baby (call your girlfriend on the phone)

Gotta get back (and all you get is "ring ring ring, busy, busy, busy, ring, ring, ring, ring"
Gotta get back to my baby (and no one there you know, but there's someone there)
Gotta get back (that's when you know)
Gotta get back to my baby
Gotta get back
Gotta get back to my baby (you know house, you know men)

Gotta get back (all the hotel rooms don't look the same)
Gotta get back to my baby (but like the rest won't like the other will like, the other will like, the other will like)
(That's when you know, it's time to get back) gotta get back
(It's time to get home) gotta get back to my baby
Right now, ah!

(Huh huh huh) I need, I really need to see
(I really need, need to see your face) the look on your face
The kiss from your lips (the kiss from your lips, I really miss the taste) oh, the taste, baby
Nothing waiting for me but a lonely room
If I gotta get back (gotta get back soon)
We will gotta get back, hmm hmm

Ah

Gotta take me home
Gotta take me home
Gotta take me home, yeah yeah yeah
