Africa (feat. Carolyn Miller & Jen Kipley)

Hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quite conversation
Is coming in 12:30 flight
Moonlit wings reflect the starts that guide me towards salvation

I stop a old man along the way
Hoping 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"

Is gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred man or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

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
Since Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred man or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hu-rry boy, she's waiting there for you
Hu-rry boy, she's waiting there for you

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred man 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
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
