Sana'a (also spelled Sanaa or Sana; Arabic: صنعاء Ṣan‘ā’ pronounced [sˤɑnʕaːʔ], Yemeni Arabic: [ˈsˤɑnʕɑ]) is the largest city in Yemen and the centre of Sana'a Governorate. The city is not part of the Governorate, but forms the separate administrative district of "Amanat Al-Asemah". Under the Yemeni constitution, Sana'a is the capital of the country, although the seat of the internationally recognised government moved to Aden in the aftermath of the 2014–15 Yemeni coup d'état. Aden was declared as the temporary capital by President Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi in March 2015.
Sana'a is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world. At an altitude of 2,300 metres (7,500 ft), it is also one of the highest capital cities in the world. Sana'a has a population of approximately 1,937,500 (2012), making it Yemen's largest city.
The old city of Sana'a, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, has a distinctive visual character due to its unique architectural characteristics, most notably expressed in its multi-storey buildings decorated with geometric patterns. In the conflict that raged in 2015, bombs hit UNESCO sites. Located here is the Great Mosque of Sana'a, the largest in the city.
And this has got to stop now
I keep running back to you to no avail
A premonition says things will never change
You are so strong
Aren't you now?
That you don't need me
Need me anymore
No more convincing lies
I know what you're trying to say
You're transient, in need of shelter
You wrapped me in the warm embrace
This has got to stop now
It's not what you thought you knew
It's what you didn't know
So luxurious and it's caught you by surprise
So what's his name?
Baby, after all of this time
I deserve to know
No more convincing lies
I know what you're trying to say
You're transient, in need of shelter
You left me in the warm embrace
You're transient, in need of shelter
You wrapped me in the warm embrace
You always seem to watch me go
The figure in your eyes return to stone
After so many goodbyes
You've built ________ for me
Just for me...
No more convincing lies
I know what you're trying to say
You're transient, in need of shelter
