Rolling Ocean - Johnny Clegg/savuka

作曲：Johnny Clegg/v Mavuso

You are the rolling ocean

You are the mighty sea

You are the breath that brings each new day to me

Some came to conquer

Some came to understand

Some came to live their lives as best they can

Me I looked up to the stars to find my way

But I was young and I got them mixed up

And so forgot my name

As I tried to remember you were standing next to me

While others came seeking power

You you had come to set them free

You are the rolling ocean

You are the mighty sea

You are the breath that brings each new day to me

You are what you are you are

You are what you are you are

You be what you are you are

You be what

You are

Women of salt and earth

They tell the same story

They saw you walking wounded

Wearing rags of glory

And when you rejoiced they saw you smiling at your rejoicing

And when you wept

They saw you smiling at your weeping

Oh when you smiled

They saw you smiling at your smiling

And you said

Thats the way I've survived these years of dust and blood

You are the rolling ocean

You are the mighty sea

You are the breath that brings each new day to me

You are the rolling ocean

You are the mighty sea

You are the breath that brings each new day to me

You are what you are you are

You are what you are you are

You be what you are you are

You be what

You are

Suffer little children

Suffer sister brother too

Suffer mother father

Thats all the world can promise you

In our hearts we feel it

A mighty dream is coming true

Hold on and well dream it

Keep it up were gonna push it through

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

Don't you give it up

Don't give it up

Don't you give it up

Don't give it up

You are the rolling ocean

You are the mighty sea

You are the breath that brings each new day to me

You are the rolling ocean

You are the mighty sea

You are the breath that brings each new day to me

You are what you are you are

You are what you are you are

You be what you are you are

You be what

You are

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

Don't give it up

Don't you give it up

Don't give it up

Don't you give it up
