I Couldn'T Say No

It flooded the heart with its abundant love I tried to say no, I tried to say no, no I couldn't say no It was there to comfort me when misery seized I turned to it for an advice when the world opened to swallow me I could have said no But its doors were always opened while yours were closed And locked with hungry hatred that pushed me away I couldn't say no It gave me strength of the beast when your words plotted my downfall I couldn't say no but yes Yes to its soothing love that paid joy to my bitter heart For it and I found endless happiness Inspired by love between in-laws, When Ndumiso left his wife for her sister.
