Verse 1
I didn’t plan on falling,
Didn’t see it coming true,
But the day I heard your name,
My whole world led to you.
From the streets of Brazzaville,
Under that African sky,
Every thought, every dream,
Is you walking through my mind.
Pre-Chorus
Your smile feels like summer,
Your voice feels like home,
Even when you’re far away,
I never feel alone.
Chorus
Mercia, you stole my heart tonight,
Across the distance, across the light,
Brazzaville holds my favorite star,
No matter where you are.
Mercia, say you feel it too,
This love so real, so pure, so true,
I fell in love without a sound,
The moment your name found me.
Verse 2
I imagine you laughing,
Walking slow by the river side,
Every city I’ve been to
Feels empty without your vibe.
They say love comes softly,
But you came like a song,
Now every beat of my heart
Whispers your name all along.
Pre-Chorus
If I could cross the miles,
I’d be there tonight,
Just to look into your eyes
And make everything right.
Chorus
Mercia, you stole my heart tonight,
Across the distance, across the light,
Brazzaville holds my favorite star,
No matter where you are.
Mercia, say you feel it too,
This love so real, so pure, so true,
I fell in love without a sound,
The moment your name found me.
Bridge
Maybe love is risky,
Maybe love is brave,
But I’d choose you a thousand times,
In every life, every way.
Final Chorus
Mercia, if you hear this song,
Know my feelings aren’t wrong,
From Brazzaville to my heart,
You were my start from the start.
Mercia, this is my truth,
A boy in love, honest and true,
I don’t know what tomorrow brings,
But tonight… you’re everything.
