Lyrics Africa - Caleb Hyles , Jonathan Young , RichaadEB
I
hear
the
drums
echoing
tonight
But
she
hears
only
whispers
of
some
quiet
conversation
She's
coming
in,
12:30
flight
The
moonlit
wings
reflect
the
stars
that
guide
me
towards
salvation
And
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
It's
gonna
take
some
time
to
do
the
things
we
never
had,
oh,
oh
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,
ooh
It's
gonna
take
a
lot
to
drag
me
away
from
you
(it's
gonna
take
a
lot)
There's
nothing
that
a
hundred
men
or
more
could
ever
do
(God
bless
the
rains)
I
bless
the
rains
down
in
Africa
(God
bless
the
rains)
It's
gonna
take
some
time
to
do
the
things
we
never
had,
oh,
oh
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
(God
bless
the
rains)
I
bless
the
rains
down
in
Africa
(I
bless
the
rains)
I
bless
the
rains
down
in
Africa
(I
bless
the
rains)
It's
gonna
take
some
time
to
do
the
things
we
never
had,
oh,
oh
