Africa

[00:24.91] I hear the drums echoing tonight

[00:27.91] But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation

[00:35.90] She's coming in, 12:30 flight

[00:39.40] The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

[00:47.66] I stopped an old man along the way

[00:51.15] Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies

[00:59.65] He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"

[01:09.65] It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you

[01:14.91] There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

[01:20.15] I bless the rains down in Africa

[01:25.41] Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

[01:43.65] The wild dogs cry out in the night

[01:46.90] As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company

[01:55.41] I know that I must do what's right

[01:58.41] As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

[02:07.16] I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become

[02:17.41] It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

[02:22.66] There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

[02:27.90] I bless the rains down in Africa

[02:32.90] Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

[03:06.66] Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you

[03:13.66] It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

[03:18.65] There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

[03:23.91] I bless the rains down in Africa

[03:29.15] I bless the rains down in Africa

[03:33.91] (I bless the rain)

[03:34.66] I bless the rains down in Africa

[03:37.16] (I bless the rain)

[03:42.16] I bless the rains down in Africa

[03:44.91] I bless the rains down in Africa

[03:48.66] (Ah, gonna take the time)

[03:50.41] Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
