I ain’t sayin’ that I always sleep alone
– Not quite right ukulaling
I ain’t sayin’ that I ain’t met no one else
– I don’t say nobody else, nobody else, nobody else, nobody
Done a little bit of midnight movin’ on
– Kwenziwa kancinci ezinzulwini zobusuku movin’ kwi
And I ain’t sayin’ when I do that it don’t help
– Kwaye andithethi ukuba xa ndisenza loo nto ayincedi
Leave with someone, I don’t know her name
– Shiya umntu, andilazi igama lakhe
Pull her real close, but I leave some space
– Mtsalele kufutshane, kodwa ndishiya indawo
And I could forget you, girl, for good
– Kwaye ndingakulibala, ntombazana, okulungileyo
Even though I should
– Nangona ndifanele
I never let my heart go all the way
– Soze ndiyiyeke intliziyo yam ihambe
Every time I try, I just hit the brakes
– Ngalo lonke ixesha ndizama, ndibetha iziqhoboshi
And there’s always a couple tryna take your place
– Kwaye kusoloko kukho couples thatha indawo yakho
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
– Kodwa andikaze ndithandane, baby, kwimeko nje
You wake me up wantin’ me out of the blue
– Awakening me away ukulele
You lay down needin’ what I used to do
– Needle bearing ‘ into ebendikade ndiyenza
Yeah, every now and then, I go get a taste
– Yes, yes, yes, now, i’ll go a taste
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
– Kodwa andikaze ndithandane, baby, kwimeko nje
Just in case
– Kwimeko nje
I always take it to the edge, then I back it up
– Ndihlala ndiyithatha, emva koko ndiyiphakamise
They don’t know I got a reason for actin’ up
– Abazi ukuba ndinesizathu sokuphakamisa
I ain’t felt a damn thing, baby, after us
– Asimbonanga, johnny clegg-asimbonanga
Yeah, I’m just hopin’ you’ll come back to us
– Yes, i’m just sayin ‘ uzobuya kithi
That’s wishful thinkin’, baby, honestly
– Wanting, babe, honestly
But I know you ain’t forgotten me
– Kodwa ndiyazi ukuba awusandilibalanga
So I never let my heart go all the way
– Soze ndiyiyeke intliziyo yam ihambe yonke indlela
Every time I try, I just hit the brakes
– Ngalo lonke ixesha ndizama, ndibetha iziqhoboshi
And there’s always a couple tryna take your place
– Kwaye kusoloko kukho couples thatha indawo yakho
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
– Kodwa andikaze ndithandane, baby, kwimeko nje
You wake up wantin’ me out of the blue
– Vukani nobanilele
You lay down needin’ what I used to do
– Needle bearing ‘ into ebendikade ndiyenza
Yeah, every now and then, I go get a taste
– Yes, yes, yes, now, i’ll go a taste
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
– Kodwa andikaze ndithandane, baby, kwimeko nje
Just in case
– Kwimeko nje
Leave with someone, I don’t know her name
– Shiya umntu, andilazi igama lakhe
Pull her real close, but I leave some space
– Mtsalele kufutshane, kodwa ndishiya indawo
Yeah, I could have three words on my tongue
– Ewe, ndinokuba namagama amathathu ngolwimi lwam
But I won’t ever say ’em
– Andisoze ndithi kuni
‘Cause I never let my heart go all the way
– Kuba andizukuyiyeka intliziyo yam ihambe yonke indlela
Every time I try, I just hit the brakes
– Ngalo lonke ixesha ndizama, ndibetha iziqhoboshi
And there’s always a couple tryna take your place
– Kwaye kusoloko kukho couples thatha indawo yakho
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
– Kodwa andikaze ndithandane, baby, kwimeko nje
You wake up wantin’ me out of the blue
– Vukani nobanilele
You lay down needin’ what I used to do
– Needle bearing ‘ into ebendikade ndiyenza
Yeah, every now and then, I go get a taste
– Yes, yes, yes, now, i’ll go a taste
But I never fall in love, baby, just in case
– Kodwa andikaze ndithandane, baby, kwimeko nje
Just in case
– Kwimeko nje
