Passport Full

Passport full, but my heart was empty
Eh-eh, yeah

Six stamps on the pages, one more in my hand
Lagos airport shuffle, Accra taxi stand
Nairobi at midnight, rooftop and a view
Every city dancing, none of them was you
Hotel soap and a curtain that don't close
Room service knocking, but nobody knows
The boy in the mirror with a boarding pass
Wondering how long this loneliness last

Then you walked in the lobby in a yellow dress
Laughing at the rain like it owe you nothing less
One look and the whole trip turn around
Baby, I'm not leaving this town

Passport full, heart was empty
Lagos, Accra, Nairobi
Every stamp was a road to you
Passport full, but I found you

Lagos (oya)
Accra (oya)
Nairobi (oya)
Passport full

Manager calling, say the flight is at ten
I tear the return ticket, I don't need it again
You say, "Show me your city," I say, "Show me your street"
Your mama's jollof and the pepper and the heat
I learn your aunty name, I learn your bus route
I learn how you whistle when your team lose out
I been all around the world with my name on a pass
Now I just want the one place that will last

Passport full, heart was empty
Lagos, Accra, Nairobi
Every stamp was a road to you
Passport full, but I found you

Keep the window seat, keep the lounge and the flight
Give me your balcony on a Sunday night
The only stamp I want is your lipstick on my cheek
Right here is the journey I was trying to seek

Passport full, and my heart is full
Lagos, Accra, Nairobi
Every stamp was a road to you
Passport full, and I found you

Lagos, Accra, Nairobi
Passport full
