I hear the drums echoing tonight

She hears only whispers of some quiet conversation

Shes coming in twelve thirty flight

Her moonlit wings reflect the stars

That guide me towards salvation

I stopped an old man along the way

Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies

He turned to me as if to say

Hurry boy its waiting there for you

Its gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

Theres 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 longing for some solitary company

I know that I must do whats right

Sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti

I seek to cure whats deep inside

Frightened of this thing that Ive become

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

Theres 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

Hurry boy its waiting there for you

Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you

Theres nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in Africa

I bless the rains down in Africa

I bless the rains down in Africa

I bless the rains down in Africa

I bless the rains down in Africa

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
