Letra da Música Manila de Amber Davis

Take me back to the place I love
Take me back to the place I love
Take me back to the place I love
Take me back to the place I love

I remember when were kids
Having bar-b-ques in the bukid
When the brownouts came
We were never alone
We just played in the streets
Til the lights came on

Six o'clock in the mornin'
Bakery just opened
You can smell the bread
They was cooking from a mile away
Ain't nothing like a fresh piece
To start your day in

Chorus:
Manila (Manila, Manila)
I'm comin' back to Manila
The only place that I call home (home)
I'm comin' back to

Manila (Manila, Manila)
I'm comin' back to Manila
The only place that I call home (home)

Signal to the jeepney (pick me up)
Take me to the place where (I grew up)
Back to the kids in the park
Where we played all day
Some had a shed for a home
But it was all okay

'Cause in Manila, we all the same
Everybody's waiting for things to change
In the barrio, that's how it is
We didn't care much 'cause we were kids, oh

(Chorus)

Manila (Manila, Manila)
I'm comin' back to Manila
The only place that I call home (home)

Rap:
I've been gone for a minute
But I'm on the next flight
And the plane man says
We can make it by night
Can't wait to touch down
In my old hometown
Had a girl, we used to kick
It but I doubt
She's still around, yo

It's all good
'Cause I'm back in the jungle
Where the girls in bikinis
All come in a bundle
And pain and poverty is everywhere
But when the smoke all clears
There's only love in the air

I've been gone too long
I'm coming home

Gone too long
I'm comin' home
(Comin' back to the place I love)
Gone too long
I'm comin' home
(Comin' back to the place I love)
I'm comin' back to Manila

Yo, yo, yo, yo
I say, babalik ako sa Manila, Manila
Babalik ako sa Manila, Manila
Babalik ako sa Manila, Manila
Babalik ako, babalik ako, babalik
Babalik ako sa Manila, Manila
Babalik ako sa Manila, Manila
Babalik ako sa Manila, Manila
Babalik ako, babalik ako, babalik

I'm comin' home
(Manila, Manila, Manila, Manila)
I'm comin' back to Manila
(Comin' back to the place I love)
I'm comin' back to Manila
(Manila, Manila, Manila, Manila)
I'm comin' back to Manila
(Comin' back to the place I love)
(Manila, Manila, Manila, Manila, Manila)
(Comin' back to the place I love)
Comin' back to the place I love
Comin' back to the place I love
Comin' back to the place I love (whoa)
