Esmeralda

I'm feelin' Esmerelda The times I don't think about the girl is seldom And all the special memories I had I held em Some ask have you ever felt a girl I tell em...

We met at a post office and let me say that I died when I seen you Shaped like a goddess from the region of Mosimbique BUTTERNUT tone kinda thick on the bones Couldn't leave it alone had to think of how I would speak to you You was inside I was out for some time I had hopped in my jeep thinking of a line to intrigue you My spontaneous reaction when I saw you jettin' Is to see if you was down wit doing something for my crew Maybe in a video but not as a video Ho (sir nose voice) but more like a character wit a legitimate IQ It was good that you had never ever heard of my group you was into Whitney and R&B type live grooves I handed you my phone number hoping & praying that underneath it all a call would be following real soon One, two, three four days past weeks later I got the call I told my crew Everybody

(Oooh woo)

We walked the parkways and watched some kids play And ducks mate while we shared each others "one days" dreams I knew within...that you were more than just a partner for sin It would depend on what the future brings So I was trying to call the future to ask But the line was always busy or no one was answering Maybe I had the wrong number, but none the less We decided it's funner to invest in possibilities

Esmerelda singing in Spanish:

I loved you more than I knew I could love anyone However I am torn between my father who is sick in my country and who needs me And you who is here in this country. But I must tend to his needs I will be back will you wait for me? I so hope to see your face again It brings me reasons for waking no mistaking Yo But I'm living as a artist in a group with a record and a tour every second there's a newer fine woman that could lure me away I can't hang with the fame and the days of your face being just a faint memory a trace girl I need you by my side it's a vibe that you give and I'll live for you if you can tell your dad prepare my room I'm coming over

(Years later they had 8 beautiful children and the first was named after Esmerelda's father)
