Esmerelda - Speech

I’m feelin' esmerelda

The times I don’t think about the girl is seldom

And all the special memories I had I held em

Some ask have you ever felt a girl I tell em…

We met at a post office and let me say that I died when I seen you

Shaped like a goddess from the region of mosimbique

Butternut tone kinda thick on the bones

Couldn’t leave it alone had to think of how I would speak to you

You was inside I was out for some time

I had hopped in my jeep thinking of a line to intrigue you

My spontaneous reaction when I saw you jettin'

Is to see if you was down wit doing something for my crew

Maybe in a video but not as a video ho (sir nose voice)

But more like a character wit a legitimate iq

It was good that you had never ever heard of my group

You was into whitney and r&b type live grooves

I handed you my phone number hoping &praying

That underneath it all a call would be following real soon

One, two, three four days past weeks later

I got the call I told my crew

Everybody

I’m feelin' esmerelda

The times I don’t think about the girl is seldom

And all the special memories I had I held em

Some ask have you ever felt a girl I tell em…

(Oooh woo)

We walked the parkways and watched some kids play and ducks mate while we

shared each others «one days» dreams

I knew within… that you were more than just a partner for sin

It would depend on what the future brings

So I was trying to call the future to ask

But the line was always busy or no one was answering

Maybe I had the wrong number, but none the less

We decided it’s funner to invest in possibilities

Esmerelda singing in spanish:

I loved you more than I knew I could love anyone

However I am torn between my father who is sick in my country and who needs me

And you who is here in this country.

But I must tend to his needs

I will be back will you wait for me?

I so hope to see your face again

It brings me reasons for waking no mistaking

Yo but I’m living

As a artist in a group with a record and a tour

Every second there’s a newer fine woman that could lure

Me away I can’t hang with the fame and the days

Of your face being just a faint memory a trace

Girl I need you by my side it’s a vibe that you give

And I’ll live for you if you can tell your dad prepare my room

I’m coming over

I’m feelin' esmerelda

The times I don’t think about the girl is seldom

And all the special memories I had I held em

Some ask have you ever felt a girl I tell em…

(Years later they had 8 beautiful children and the first was named after

esmerelda’s father)
