About Nina (with apologies to the Fresh Prince of Bel-Air…)
Now, this is a story all about how
I moved away from old London town
And I'd like to take a minute
Just sit right there
I'll share how I became a celebrant and lay my life bare
In England is where I was born and raised
In the library was where I spent most of my days
Reading and studying, not super cool
But life kicked off when I left school
Travel, study, life was good
‘Til my dad said “Time to leave this ‘hood
Get your passport, dollars and bags in order,
It’s time to spread your wings my intrepid daughter”.
I pondered and procrastinated day after day
But he kept nagging 'til all I could say
Was "OK you win" and with my ruby shoes
I headed for Oz with nothing to lose.
I landed in Sydney, a new Emerald city
Fell in love with the landscape - oh so pretty
Years flew by, I built a home
Until one day - a new name on my phone
This guy from a party, we’d had a vibe
A whole new feeling I couldn’t describe
On our very first date it was joke after joke
Something had happened – was I falling for this bloke?
The night got late and the uber drew near
The license plate said “love”, what’s going on here?
My instinct told me this cab was on fleek
But I thought "Nah, forget it, yo, home to Wolli Creek”
I pulled up to my house super late
Yelled to the cabbie, "Thanks, see ya mate"
And in that moment a call came through
My date was buzzing, “So great to see you”
Fast forward a while, and life is a jive
Living life together, one plus one equals five
