Africa

I hear the drums echoing tonight
 But she only whispers of some quiet conversation
 She's coming in 12:30 flight
 The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
 I stopped an old man along the way
 Hoping to find some 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
 The wild dogs cry out in the night
 As they grow restless for some solitary company
 I know that I must do what's right
 Sure as Kilimanjaro rises above the Serengeti
 I seek to cure what's deep inside
 Frightened by 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
