MY TEN KOBO; PARADISE- A TRIBUTE TO BARRY WONDER

PARADISE
(In Memory of Dr. Sikiru Ayinde Barrister)

*****Set to the lyrics of Nightshift by the Commodores*****

Ayinde, he was a brother of mine
And he could sing a song
His heart in every line
Ayinde sang of the joy and pain
He opened up our minds
And I still can hear him say
Aw talk to me so you can see
What's going on
Say you will sing your songs
Forevermore (evermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds
Coming down in paradise
I bet you're singing proud
Oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night
It's gonna be all right
In Paradise
Oh you found another home
I know you're not alone
In paradise

Barry (Barry), hey what'you doing now
It seems like yesterday
When we were hanging out
Eskay (Eskay, oh) you set
The world on fire
You came and gifted us
Your love it lifted us
Higher and higher
Keep it up and
We'll be there
At your side
Oh say you will sing
Your songs forevermore (evermore)

Gonna be some sweet sounds
Coming down in Paradise
I bet you're singing proud
Oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night
It's gonna be all right
in Paradise
Oh you found another home
I know you're not alone
In Paradise

Gonna miss your sweet voice
That soulful voice
In Paradise
We all remember you
Ooh the songs are coming through
At the end of a long day
It's gonna be okay
in paradise
You found another home
I know you're not alone
in paradise
