Angela don＇t you remember

**Title: Don’t You Remember, Angela** **Verse 1** Don’t you remember the first day that we met, 6 January, twenty-o-four, we’ll never forget. You walked in, and my whole world changed, From that moment, nothing felt the same. Don’t you remember our very first kiss, Shaking hands, but hearts found their bliss. You looked at me like I was your home, We were just kids, but we weren’t alone. **Chorus** Don’t you remember, Angela, All the days that built our love? From the dust of Joburg streets To the stars we dreamed of above. Before the hurt, before the fights, Before we broke each other’s hearts, Don’t you remember, Angela, We swore we’d never fall apart? **Verse 2** Don’t you remember the strength that you found, The day you realised how strong you’d become? No longer afraid of the world outside, You stood so tall, I stood by your side. Don’t you remember when I said I’d make you my wife, Promised you forever, promised you my life? We laughed and we cried, we drew our plans, Two dreamers holding each other’s hands. **Chorus** Don’t you remember, Angela, All the days that built our love? From the dust of Joburg streets To the stars we dreamed of above. Before the hurt, before the fights, Before we broke each other’s hearts, Don’t you remember, Angela, We swore we’d never fall apart? **Verse 3** Don’t you remember that call late at night, “Come back to Johannesburg, your future’s in sight”? You packed your bags, you chased your dream, I stood behind you, part of your team. Don’t you remember Lawley, our first little place, Four walls and a key, but it felt like grace? We painted the rooms with laughter and tears, Built a small heaven out of our fears. **Pre-Chorus** Don’t you remember, staying together, First time as girlfriend and boyfriend for real? Cooking on Sundays, counting every cent, But rich in a love no money could steal. **Chorus** Don’t you remember, Angela, All the days that built our love? From the dust of Joburg streets To the stars we dreamed of above. Before the hurt, before the fights, Before we broke each other’s hearts, Don’t you remember, Angela, We swore we’d never fall apart? **Verse 4** Don’t you remember our families that day, Gathered together in the old-fashioned way? Beats of the drums and ululations loud, Our traditional wedding, we made them proud. Don’t you remember the cries of joy, When you gave birth to our second-born boy? Little Ndzalama, our precious gold, In that small hospital, our future unfold. Don’t you remember the keys in our hand, First car parked on our own piece of land? Limpopo soil underneath our feet, We said, “This is where our hearts will meet.” **Pre-Chorus 2** Don’t you remember Home Affairs that day, Looking in my eyes while we both did say: “Till death do us part,” with trembling voices, Two simple rings, two lifelong choices.
