Africa

<p>[Verse 1]<br/>I hear the drums echoing tonight<br/>She hears only whispers of some quiet conversation<br/>Shes coming in, 12:30 flight<br/>The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation<br/>I stopped an old man along the way<br/>Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies<br/>He turned to me as if to say<br/>&quot;Hurry boy, it&#x27;s waiting there for you&quot;<br/><br/>[Chorus]<br/>It&#x27;s gonna take a lot to take me away from you<br/>There&#x27;s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>Gonna take some time to do the things we never have<br/>[Verse 2]<br/>The wild dogs cry out in the night<br/>As they grow restless longing for some solitary company<br/>I know that I must do what&#x27;s right<br/>As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti<br/>I seek to cure what&#x27;s deep inside, frightened of this thing that I&#x27;ve become<br/><br/>[Chorus]<br/>It&#x27;s gonna take a lot to take me away from you<br/>There&#x27;s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>Gonna take some time to do the things we never have<br/><br/>[Bridge]<br/>Hurry boy, she&#x27;s waiting there for you<br/><br/>[Chorus]<br/>It&#x27;s gonna take a lot to drag me away from you<br/>There&#x27;s nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>I bless the rains down in Africa<br/>Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
