Mango Groove Gone Too Soon
[Intro (spoken): Mahlathini and Claire Johnston]
Ma Johnston
Yebo Mahlathini
S'thandwa sami
[Verse 1: Mahlathini]
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Hamb' ushone, sekuphelile
Kuphelile okwami nawe
(Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Kuphelile okwakho nami
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Kuphelile okwakho nami)
Shiya hamba, [?] abakithi
Sala njalo nezenzo zakho
Ezingalunganga kimi
Oh lo lo!
[Bridge: Claire Johnston]
I didn't know you would leave me
I didn't know you would break my heart
I never noticed a change
'Cause though I said I was sorry
I should've known right from the start
Things would never be the same
And now you're
Gone too soon
I didn't know you would leave me
Gone too soon
I didn't know you would break my heart
Gone too soon
Though I said I was sorry
You're gone too soon
And I know it would tear me apart
Gone too soon
Gone too soon
(Don't leave me)
Gone too soon
Ooh, you're gone too soon
[Refrain: Claire Johnston, Mahlathini, and backing singers]
(Gone too soon)
Oh izenzo zakho!
(Gone too soon)
Oh izenzo zakho
(Gone too soon)
Don't leave me
(Gone too soon)
Ngoba izenzo zakho
Gone too soon
(Gone too soon)
Ngiyakwesaba
Ooh, too soon
(Gone too soon)
Oh angisakufuni mina
Gone too soon
Sengidelile ngawe
Hey, you're gone too
Gone too
Gone too soon
[Verse 2: Mahlathini and Claire Johnston]
Hamb' ushone
Angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
[Verse 3 and outro]
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Gone too soon
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Don't leave me
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Don't leave me
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Don't go
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
Luphelile olwakho nami
Ooh, don't go
Hamb' ushone, angisakufuni
It's not too late
Luphelile olwakho nami
