Africa
~Toto~
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 to know that along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words
Or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry boy, it'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 passed some 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
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus
Above the serangetti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become
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 passed some rains down in Africa
I passed some rains down in Africa
I passed some rains down in Africa
I passed some rains down in Africa
I passed some rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
