Ngikhanyisele wedlozi lami. Two humans on the run. (repeat). The autumn leaves have trooped their colours. Rumours of the battle to come. Intelligence says you have departed.
I nearly disappeared into the mouth of a crocodile. I nearly touched the rain deep in the heaven on high. I could have been a sad piece of news on the radio.
Bits of songs and broken drums. Are all he could recall. So he spoke to me. In a bastard tongue. Carried on the silence of the guns. . "it's been a long long time.
Wetholakele ngiyakuthanda. Wetholakele ungiphoxa ngento eyodwa wetholakele (x2). (tholakele I love you tholakele. But you upset me badly over one thing...).
Yashimbawula! (the watchman's fire is burning). . What happened to the diamonds in your eyes,. What happened to the hunger for the day's chase?. What happened to the electric smile.
[Chorus]. Here we stand waiting on the plain. Darkness has taken the last outpost of the day. Somewhere gunships hunt their illusive prey. And I know inside you feel the same way.
Electric chair didn't burn a hair. And the newspaperman asked why. And while the warden explain in great detail. The newsman looked in the sky. . "I'm sure", he said.
Through all the days that eat away. At every breath that I take. Through all the nights I've lain alone. In someone else's dream, awake. . All the words in truth we have spoken.
Johnny:. Eshe mfowethu! ithini lenkunzana yasesemanzani?. (hi there 'bro! what does litte bull from the place of waters, say?. Sipho:. Hayi, noma izacile isandonsa-nje.
Zisho inggaba. Iyangala intombazane eshawela. Hawu! inyangala intombazana,. Womama! (repeat). Ngeke kulunga mina. Ngiphuma lenatali, thandiwe mama. Chorus.
Tell him again he don't care much to hear. Mtsheleni madoda akafuni ukulalele. . I was talking to him again. But the never understands me. He thinks it is very strange.
'sishimane gijima ushon' ezinyangeni. Uyamazi nkunzi emnyama? (x2). (hey! unsuccessful lover man, you had better hurry to a magician,. Do you know one called "the black bull"? ).
There's a brawl in a lonely 'whites only' bar. A lekker groove in a classy shebeen. Someone betrayed in a government car. A silent movement on the stock market screen.
Chorus. Take my heart away (repeat). . To be the sound of wild geese calling. To be ten seasons in a night. To dance the sun beyond the tides of war and peace.
Dal e mi soula. Y me incuerdo. Did you see my family. We had a sweet simple glory. We had a gallant who works for me. . For I was once an immortal. With General Walker's gringo army.
Of all the treasure in our chest. We love the golden god of war the best. . Look, look at that little clown. Here, look through the binoculars. Someone burned his schoolhouse down.
Feelin' low. Rockin' slow. I want to go. Right back where i belong. . Way down south in birmingham. I mean south in alabam'. There's an old place where people go.
See the guy in the corner. The one who's drinking another glass. There's a look in his eye. That I've seen so many times in the past. I've seen it in the mirror.
I know that you think I protest too much. I'm like a diva with a tragic touch. But if I wanna hide from the pouring sun. It has to be alright. And I could have my pride but I'll try to run.
Hey - did you ever see so many stars in the sky. Yeah - and can you imagine how many we can't even see. Imagine we're in the jiddle of the Galaxy. Yeah - Imagine how many blazing stars there'd be.
