Lyrics
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers
Of some quiet conversation
She's coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect
The stars that guide me towards salvation
I stop an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words
Or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you
[CHORUS]
It's gonna take a lot
To drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do
The things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing
For some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as Kilimanjaro rises
Like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Lyrics courtesy Top40db.
Frightened of this thing that I've become
[repeat CHORUS]
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot
To drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men
Or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rains)
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rains)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do
The things we never had
