Dwin, The Stoic & Rhaffy – Cotonou Lyrics

Sun sets, I think of you
I swear it takes me
Back to Cotonou
With the music playing
I’m stuck staring
Tu es toujours belle
Ma chérie

These days get cold
When you’re way
Too far to hold
I remember sun on your skin
My laugh and your grin
Our bodies in sync
Ma chérie

Can we go back there
Can we go back there
Each time I see the sunset
Tu me manques
Retournons-y

What else were we to do
There was us
Nothing more
Me and you
There was always singing
Random dancing
C’est a cause de toi
Ma chérie

But these days get cold
When you’re way way
Too far to hold
I remember sun on your skin
My laugh and your grin
Our bodies in sync
Ma chérie

Can we go back there
Can we go back there
Each time I see the sunset
Tu me manques
Retournons-y

Can we go back there (Oh can we go back)
Can we go back there
Each time I see the sunset
Tu me manques
Retournons-y

Dwin The Stoic Rhaffy
