Lyrics

Thari was a village girl
Lived her life tending fields for her father
Thari was a different girl
So misunderstood as she danced around the fire
How she dreamed of the city life,
Chasing dreams, watching stars in the night sky
How she dared for the city lights,
knew the day she would leave mama go cry, mama go cry but
Thari was a different girl yeah
Thari was a different girl, dancing round the fire
E, e, e,
In the still of night went running,
Skyscrapers calling, like nothing she's ever seen before
Naive girl looking for something more
City lights ain't for free upon charge
Temptation feeds off of them living large,
Sold their souls for the entourage
Here the night sky hid the stars
But if she closed her eyes she'd remember the feeling
Under the scorching sun the voice said keep on believing
She'd take on these streets with the sound of drums beating
Coz what was promised had to be worth her leaving,
Thari was always a different girl
Thari was always a different girl
Dancing round the fire
E, e, e,
