Ividyo Kliphu
Lyrics
I still remember the third of December, me in your sweater
– Ngisakhumbula ingxenye yesithathu kadisemba, mina ngigqoke ijezi lakho
You said it looked better on me than it did you
– Wathi kwakubukeka kungcono kimi kunalokho okwakwenza
Only if you knew how much I liked you
– Kuphela uma wazi ukuthi ngangikuthanda kangakanani
But I watch your eyes as she
– Kodwa ngibuka amehlo akho njengoba yena
Walks by
– Ukuhamba ngezinyawo
What a sight for sore eyes
– Yeka umbono wamehlo abuhlungu
Brighter than the blue sky
– Okukhanyayo kunesibhakabhaka esiluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka
She’s got you mesmerized while I die
– Uyahlabeka umxhwele lapho ngifa
Why would you ever kiss me?
– Kungani unganganga?
I’m not even half as pretty
– Angimuhle ngisho nengxenye
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
– Wamnika ijezi lakho, kumane nje kuyi-polyester
But you like her better
– Kodwa uyamthanda kangcono
Wish I were Heather
– Ngifisa sengathi ngabe Nginguheather
Watch as she stands with her, holding your hand
– Buka njengoba emi naye, ebambe isandla sakho
Put your arm ’round her shoulder, now I’m getting colder
– Beka ingalo yakho ‘ ehlombe lakhe, manje sengiyabanda
But how could I hate her? She’s such an angel
– Kodwa ngangingamzonda kanjani? Uyingelosi enjalo
But then again, kinda wish she were dead as she
– Kodwa-ke futhi, ufisa sengathi ngabe ufile njengoba yena
Walks by
– Ukuhamba ngezinyawo
What a sight for sore eyes
– Yeka umbono wamehlo abuhlungu
Brighter than the blue sky
– Okukhanyayo kunesibhakabhaka esiluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka
She’s got you mesmerized while I die
– Uyahlabeka umxhwele lapho ngifa
Why would you ever kiss me?
– Kungani unganganga?
I’m not even half as pretty
– Angimuhle ngisho nengxenye
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
– Wamnika ijezi lakho, kumane nje kuyi-polyester
But you like her better
– Kodwa uyamthanda kangcono
I wish I were Heather
– Ngifisa sengathi ngabe Nginguheather
(Oh, oh)
– (Oh, oh)
I wish I were Heather
– Ngifisa sengathi ngabe Nginguheather
(Oh, oh)
– (Oh, oh)
Wish I were Heather
– Ngifisa sengathi ngabe Nginguheather
Why would you ever kiss me?
– Kungani unganganga?
I’m not even half as pretty
– Angimuhle ngisho nengxenye
You gave her your sweater, it’s just polyester
– Wamnika ijezi lakho, kumane nje kuyi-polyester
But you like her better
– Kodwa uyamthanda kangcono
Wish I were
– Ngifisa sengathi ngabe
