Dela (Live) - Johnny Clegg/Savuka

One day I looked up and there you were

Like a simple question looking for an answer

Now I am a whale listening to some inner call

Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shore

What if I don't find you when I have landed

Would you leave me here to die on your shores stranded

I think I know why the dog howls at the moon

I think I know why the dog howls at the moon

I say dela dela ngiyadela

When I am with you

Dela sondela mama sondela

I burn for you

I've been waiting for you all my life hoping for a miracle

I've been waiting day and night day and night

I've been waiting for you all my life waiting for redemption

I've been waiting day and night I burn for you

The blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart

The image of your face comes to me

When I'm alone in the dark

If I could give a shape to this ache that I have for you

If I could find the voice that says the words that capture you

I think I know I think I know

I think I know I think I know

I think I know why the dog howls at the moon

I know why the dog howls at the moon

I say dela dela ngiyadela

When I am with you

Dela sondela mama sondela

I burn for you

I've been waiting for you all my life hoping for a miracle

I've been waiting day and night day and night

I've been waiting for you all my life waiting for redemption

I've been waiting day and night I burn for you

I say sondela sondela mama sondela

Where I am with you

I've been waiting for you all my life hoping for a miracle

I've been waiting day and night day and night

I've been waiting for you all my life waiting for redemption

I've been waiting day and night I burn for you

I burn for you burn for you

I burn for you burn for you

I burn for you burn for you

I burn for you burn for you

I burn for you burn for you

I burn for you burn for you

I say sondela sondela mama sondela

I burn for you
