Tunde

Tunde is a unisex name, originally a diminutive form of a Yoruba name for a native of Nigeria which also means "returns". Hence, when Tunde is combined with other Yoruba words such as Baba (father) or Yeye/Iya/Mama (mother) to form Babatunde and Yetunde respectively, the meaning becomes 'father or mother has returned'. Similarly, Omo (son) or Ola (wealth) can be added to Tunde. more »

Cover me over with fallen leaves
I've gone to ground, I need you
'Cause when I crack you cordon me
Off to the passers by so they can't steal
Their looks at the things I can't hide

Roll over, I'm not done with you
You can stop me feeling blue

When holding my smile
Starts to wear me out child
Tell me I don't have to be so brave

When I let my shoulders fall
And sink softly in my seat
Shield me from my sadness and defeat, ooh

Cover me, my eyes are broken they're just seeing grey
But you bring the colors of the waking day
A lament begging you to save me
Cover me girl so they can't break me
Pick me up when it overtakes me

Roll over, I'm not done with you
You can stop me feeling blue

When holding my smile
Starts to wear me out, child
Tell me I don't have to be so brave

When I let my shoulders fall
And sink softly in my seat
Shield me from my sadness and defeat, yeah

Cover me over with fallen leaves
A lament begging you to save me
Cover me girl so they can't break me
Pick me up when it overtakes me

Roll over, I'm not done with you
You can stop me feeling blue

When holding my smile
Starts to wear me out, child
Tell me I don't have to be so brave

When I let my shoulders fall
And sink softly in my seat
Shield me from my sadness and defeat, yeah
