🎤 LYRICS
(Intro – soft brass, round bass, distant female choir)
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ooo…
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ju gbogbo nkan lo…
(My love is bigger than anything in this world)
(Couplet 1)
You say you love me when camera dey on,
But when I need you, you don disappear.
I no need love wey be decoration,
I need that truth wey go stand storm.
Ìfẹ́ tó dá lórí, kò ní fọ́,
(Love built on rock will never break)
Mo nífẹ̀ẹ́ rẹ, kì í ṣe fun show,
(I love you, not for the crowd)
This heart no be fashion show.
(Refrain – groove warm, call & response)
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi, tóbi, tóbi ooo!
True love no be fashion show!
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ju gbogbo nkan lo,
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ooo!
(Couplet 2)
When money finish, who go stay?
When fame go down, who go pray?
I want woman wey dey reason soul,
Not body wey dey chase control.
Ìfẹ́ jẹ́ ìbáṣepọ̀, kì í ṣe photo,
(Love is union, not picture)
Life get wahala, but we go tango,
Together till the last echo.
(Pont – female choir & saxophone)
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi, tóbi ooo…
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ju gbogbo nkan lo…
My love is strong like talking drum,
Beat of my heart dey call your name.
(Refrain final – collective choir)
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi, tóbi, tóbi ooo!
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi, love wey pure!
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ju gbogbo nkan lo!
Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ooo…
(Outro – final saxophone fade)
“Ìfẹ́ mi tóbi ooo…”
