I hear the drums echoing tonight
but she hears only whispers
of some quiet conversation.
She’s coming in twelve thirty fligth,
her moonlit wings reflect the stars
that guide me towards salvation.

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.

I stoped and old man 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 bless the rains down in Africa.
Gonna take some time had.
