Opposites, they say, attract;
but would the law of magnetism works in this case?
The gap between us reminds me of the rivers;
Niger and Benue
How they must have, long fantasized
the exhilarating comfort of a closer bond
"If only we come close" the waves whisper
"If only we come close"
Then we can dance to the beats of the current
responding to impulse by the peaceful sea breeze
If only we come close

If only we come close
The skies will smile again
As vapors of passion come together,
To form clouds of affection above
Then rain down showers of love upon us  
Watering the tender seeds in our passion
to grow into giant cedars of  unshakable Union  
If only we come close

If only we come close
You wouldn't need a name
Because you in me and I in you
would make us one and the same
If our streams must overflow
then it would be to transport tears of joy
For our willing hearts will  flow in love
If only we come close

If only we come close
Our season shall know no end
for a thousand generations
Our path will never bend
It shall cause happiness to reign
among both enemy and friend
My wish of a dream come true
If only we come close
