Say Ladeo - Bobby McFerrin

Hey, hey, say Ladeo

Time for taking words away

The melody will tell the story

As we go along

Riding a wave of a thousand stories

Starlit journeys of morning glories

Where your long lost dreams are suddenly awake

Summoning a prayer, didn’t even know was there

Say Ladeo

A song becomes a thousand songs

Hey, hey, say Ladeo

Time we took the words away

We’re getting to somewhere closer

That’s hidden inside

Words only take you so far and leave you

Wondering just what it was you meant to

Say what you would say if your heart led the way

Take away the words, letting all the sounds just play

Say Ladeo

A song becomes a thousand songs

And each and every heart

Brings life and times and rhymes along

All the dreams you never knew were there

Sound and feeling, melody and prayer

Say Ladeo

Words only take you so far and leave you

Wondering what it was you meant to

Say what you would, say what you would

Say if you could let your heart just lead the way

Say Ladeo

A song becomes a thousand songs

A prayer becomes a song

So sing out loud or whisper low
