Curepipe also known as La Ville-Lumière (The City of Light), is a town in Mauritius, located in the Plaines Wilhems District, the eastern part also lies in the Moka District. The town is administered by the Municipal Council of Curepipe. Curepipe lies at a higher elevation, often referred to as the "Central Plateau". According to the census made by Statistics Mauritius in 2012, the population of the town was at 85,049.
The town's name, Curepipe, is said to be originated from the French curer sa pipe, which translates to "cleaning the pipe". There are several theories by historians as to the naming of the city. Some historians believe that the name was given as travelers and soldiers from the 19th century often traveled from Port Louis and Grand Port (now Mahébourg) to refill their pipes in Curepipe. Other historians believe that the name was given after a late landowner during the 18th century.
The town officially covers an area of 23.8 square kilometres (9.2 sq mi). It is located in the Plaine Wilhems district on the central plateau of Mauritius at an altitude of 561 meters. Of the larger towns of the island's central plateau, Curepipe is the most southern and also the highest. As a consequence of its height, Curepipe is known for its relatively cool and rainy climate.
What's happenin'?
What you're cryin' for?
You know you look too damn good to be cryin'
Come here
Do do do do do yeah yeah)
How about a player
DPG style
You know
You know
When I think of our untimely end
And everything we could have been
I cry, baby I cry
So it's 5 AM and
I still can't sleep
Took some medicine
But it's not working
Someone's clinging to me
And it's bittersweet
'Cause he's head over heels
But it ain't that deep
I finally changed my number
Got a different pager
Then last saturday
Your cousin called to say you're
Tryin' to reach me
Probably because you see that
I'm with someone new
Late at night like a little child
Wandering 'round alone
In my new friend's home
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
(So that he won't know)
I still cry baby
(I cry baby)
Over you and me
Sipping Bailey's Cream
By the stereo
Trying to find relief
On the radio
I'm suppressing the tears
But they start to flow
'Cause the next song I hear
Is a song I wrote
When we first got together
Early that september
I can't bear to listen
So I might as well drift
In the kitchen
Pour another glass or two
And I try to forget you
(You)
Late at night like a little child
Wandering 'round alone
In my new friend's home
(In my new friend's home on my)
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
(So that he won't know I)
I still cry baby
Over you and me
(You and me)
Baby hear me when I say
Let that man be on his way
Don't even waste your time
And worry how he handle thangz
(That ain't right) baby hear me when I say
A playa feelin' good today (u know ur 2 fly 2 be cryin')
Don't even waste your time watch how I handle (watch) thangz
Man ur a fool for this
For this)
But on the real dog I'm cool with this we do and this
D-O-DOUBLE G-Y
Kiss the girls and make them cry!
(It's late)
Late at night like a little child
(I'm like a little child)
Wandering around alone
(Wandering around alone)
In my new friend's home
(Do do do do do)
On my tippy toes
(Tippy toes)
So that he won't know
(So that he won't know)
I still cry baby
(I was babbling)
Over you and me
(Over you and me)
Why is it 5 AM and
I'm still struggeling and
Walking 'round no
Do do do do do do do
(On my tippy toes)
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
I still cry baby
(I still cry)
Over you and me
I don't get no sleep
I'm half awake
Can't stop thinking of you and me
And everything we used to be
It could have been so perfectly
I cry
I cry
I cry
I gotta give me some sleep
Baby and I
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
I still cry
You and I
Over you and me
Late at night like a little child
(Oh like a little child)
Wandering 'round alone
In my new friend's home
(Do do do do do)
(In my new friend's home)
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
(So that he won't know)
I still cry
(Do do do do do)
(Do do do do do)
(Do do do do do)
(Do do do do do)
(Do do do do do)
Late at night like a little child
Wandering around alone
In my new friend's home
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
I still cry baby
Over you and me
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Do do do do do
Cry baby
On my tippy toes
So that he won't know
