TOTO AFRICA SONG lyrics


-----
I hear the drums 
echoing tonight
But she hears 
only whispers 
of some quiet 
conversation
She's comin' in, 
12:30 flight
The moonlit wings 
reflect the stars 
that guide me towards 
salvation
I stopped an old man 
along the way
Hopin' to find 
some old 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 nothin' 
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
Ooh, hoo
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 Serengeti
I seek to cure 
what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing 
that I've become
It's gonna take 
a lot to drag me 
away from you
There's nothin' 
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
Ooh, hoo
"Hurry, boy, 
she's waiting 
there for you"
It's gonna take 
a lot to drag me 
away from you
There's nothin' 
that a hundred 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 never had
Ooh, hoo
