Africa - Toto

I hear the drums echoing tonight. 
She hears only whispers of some 
quiet conversation. 

She is coming in twelve thirty flight. 
Moonlit wings reflect the stars 
that guide me towards salvation. 

I stopped an 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 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 
sure as Kilimanjaro rises 
like Olympus above the Serengeti. 

I seem 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 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. 
Hurry boy, she is 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. 
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.
