Habibti, Come With Me

Letra

[Intro] Ya, sahbi, the night is young [Verse 1] Dust on my shoes from the road to the coast Phone in my pocket, your name on the note You said, “Don’t wait where the old buses turn” So I took the long way, let the warm air burn [Pre-Chorus] One small sign and I know where to go Your red scarf in the crowd, moving slow [Chorus] Come with me, come with me, habibti Past the market, down to the sea If the morning asks where we’ve been Tell it we found our way again Come with me, come with me, habibti No big promises, just you and me [Verse 2] Mint tea cooling beside the brass tray You laugh at my shoes, say I walk the wrong way A taxi leans on its horn at the bend You pull me along like the night won’t end [Pre-Chorus] One small sign and I know where to go Your red scarf in the crowd, moving slow [Chorus] Come with me, come with me, habibti Past the market, down to the sea If the morning asks where we’ve been Tell it we found our way again Come with me, come with me, habibti No big promises, just you and me [Bridge] Let the old ferry carry our shoes Let the salt air settle the news You don’t need to say what comes next Just take my hand; leave the rest [Final Chorus] Come with me, come with me, habibti Past the market, down to the sea If the morning asks where we’ve been Tell it we found our way again Come with me, come with me, habibti No big promises, just you and me [Outro] Ya, sahbi, the night is young
