Africa

[00:00.01] It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

[00:04.91] There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

[00:10.42] I bless the rains down in Africa

[00:15.91] Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

[00:33.15] I hear the drums echoing tonight

[00:37.16] But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation

[00:45.66] She's coming in, 12:30 flight

[00:48.91] The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

[00:57.65] I stopped an old man along the way

[01:01.16] Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies

[01:09.90] He turned to me as if to say

[01:13.65] "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

[01:18.81] It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

[01:24.32] There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

[01:30.06] I bless the rains down in Africa

[01:35.06] Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

[01:54.31] The wild dogs cry out in the night

[01:58.06] As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company

[02:06.32] I know that I must do what's right

[02:09.46] As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

[02:18.71] I seek to cure what's deep inside,

[02:21.96] Frightened of this thing that I've become

[02:29.47] It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

[02:34.47] There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

[02:40.21] I bless the rains down in Africa

[02:44.22] (I bless the rain)

[02:45.72] I bless the rains down in Africa

[02:49.97] I bless the rains down in Africa

[02:56.47] Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
