In My African Dream Lyrics - Singles - Clegg Johnny

Something broke the place where the rain is bornb 

something stole the promise from the light of dawn 

people, people were everywhere struggling to get their share 

honest cruelty in the eyes of the innocent 

squeezing one more harvest from this tired earth 

they call to you, but the wind just blows away their words 

didn't believe in miracles, didn't believe you'd come 

didn't see any reason to carry on 

Chorus: 

But in my African Dream, you touched my face 

raised up my children and gave them grace 

in my African Dream you wiped away my tears 

and whispered the promise of a thousand years 

Children with eyes like souls ready to fly 

looking at me -- for some kind of sacred sign 

who will teach the young, the names of the ancient ones 

who will tell them from whence they come 

I have no answer, don't even have a prayer 

All I can do is close my eyes and hope that you will be thre 

In my African Dream you blessed the rain 

let me stand proud, eased the pain, 

you raised me up, 

gave me love, filled my cup. 

Old man sits in the shade of the thorn treee 

he says "these thorns are all that are true 

life is suffering, suffering is life, 

be happy with the small things that come to you 

They will come to you, come to you." 

Chorus
