While I Still Have You Lyrics

Tomorrow ain't guaranteed

Why then should I take today for granted?

I mean we can simply long to see another day

Yet whether our eyes are permitted to behold sunrise again, ain't ours to choose

But deciding to celebrate each day

I'm graced to have you by my side, that I can choose

Your arrival marked my departure; your "yes"

The spaceship that took me over the moon

I'm being as down to earth as gravity itself

When I say I ain't coming down anytime soon

My joy is really overflowing; I guess you now know

Why I've been flooding my socials with your pictures

Who knew my vision would someday gather the courage to ask out my reality?

Who knew the two would together walk down the aisle

In holy matrimony and live as one for eternity?

I've more than a dozen tongues advising me to tone it down a little

Arguing break ups are inevitable when you're dating

You should know this, you ain't a kid

No more, you no longer little

Yet for as long as I've you, I'll tell them of how much I feel at home

I mean losing you would be the worst thing that could ever happen to me

The worst that could happen both in this and the next life

Not having you among the saints would be worse than a nightmare

And so I'll look into their eyes and try to describe you, your heart's beauty

I simply wish our planet had a language

With enough words that best describe you my pretty

Either way, I'll still try to use the vocabularies at our disposal

And try painting a picture of this amazing reality

Having known you my entire stay in uni

I can confidently say: I know no other lady

Among those born of a woman in our generation

I know no lady with a heart as beautiful as yours my lady

A true daughter of Africa

Born and bred in Malawi, Southern Africa

With a heart warmer than her mother's, the Warm Heart of Africa

So tailor made for her guy, with a uniqueness

I can find in neither America nor Antarctica

The entire universe has none like her, it has no replica

Like I said in the Test of Time, your breed is so very rare

I can't help but keep admiring

I would even learn Spanish just to tell you one thing

"Amanda", girl you're adorable

Saying you're lovable is an understatement, I ain't lying

Even when we were simply friends

You made loving you easy, like I wasn't even trying

"Naloli", this ain't nothing but the truth

Girl you're more than a darling

I know nothing about tomorrow, and so I'll tell you how I really feel about you today

Praying sincerely that my love for you gets better like fine wine with each passing day

Asking God that my eyes are continuously opened

To the uniqueness of your beauty, each and every day

For you're surely altogether beautiful my love

Beautiful beyond compare my lady, beautiful in every way

By your side sweetie, by your side my love

Your Heavenly Father knows how much I long to forever stay

I know you kinda look small in their eyes; they despise you

Questioning your maturity levels, I know they belittle you

Unaware of the kind of wisdom that my thirsty soul draws from your deep well

Oblivious to the type of decisions you've made to get here

Something of which none of them can tell

Either way, on this play ground called earth

I wish they knew you're the kid I wanna grow old playing with

Life, lovely while it lasts, is soon over

As precious and as beautiful as we know it, life ends

Before you know it, it's game over

That's exactly why I choose to tell you

What you mean to me while I still have you love

Before the body is put back in the same ground it came from, the grave

Before the spirit returns to the Almighty

The God enthroned far beyond the sky above

While I still have you my love!
