Come to my house

Kudakwashe mabulala 2022 (Harare)

Lyric
Come to my home for the night is cold
Come for the years are long
Come for we don't need you bold
Hollows of sleep are ford
The barking of the dogs will bring doom for some of them are loved but lost
The silence will keep the door still
Shadows shaped like frogs
And the only place u will sleep is the floors
