I hear the drums echoin tonight
She has only whis pers of some quiet
conversa - t ion
She's coming in twelve thirthy flight
the moolight winds
Re flect the stars that guide me
toward salva-tio n
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some o ld forgotten
words of ancient melo-di es
He turned to me as if to say
hurry boy it's w aiting there for you
Gonna take a lo t to drag me awa y from you
There's nothing that a h undred men or
mo re could ever do MTM
I bless the ra ins down in A frica
Gonna take some t ime to do the th ings
we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow r estless longing for some
solitary compa-ny
I know that I must do what's right
Sure as kilimangiaro ri ses like olimpus
above the seranget-ti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this th ing that I've become
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a h undred men or
more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things
we n ever h ad
hurry boy it's waiting there for you
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a h undred men or more
could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things
we n ever h ad
