Mushanga Lyrics - Toto

I can't forget you my little Mushanga 

I keep a place in my heart for you 

The days of waiting they keep getting longer 

And not a thing I can do 

I was a poet, a magazine writer 

Sent to report on political views 

It was by chance through a lens that I met you 

A Capetown girl with no shoes 

You were runnin' down the road 

I was going your way 

I stopped and turned around to lent you my hand 

You smiled though you were suffering 

I didn't understand, then

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

You broke into my heart 

I saw your eyes and then I knew 

You broke into my heart 

Like the wind and rain that followed you 

You broke into my heart 

Had the Lord above forgotten you? 

You broke in from the start 

And all my tears belong to you 

Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh 

I sat and watched as she danced by the fires 

Through ancient songs did the tale unfold 

They sang of diamonds that came from their mountains 

The loss of lives mining white man's gold 

I had to leave and go back to Manhattan 

Where all my stories are bought and sold 

I know the city would surely be saddened 

If what I knew could be told 

Photos 

You were runnin' down the road 

I was going your way 

I stopped and turned around to lent you my hand 

You smiled though you were suffering 

I didn't understand, then 

You broke into my heart 

I saw your eyes and then I knew 

You broke into my heart 

Like the wind and rain that followed you 

You broke into my heart 

Had the Lord above forgotten you? 

You broke in from the start 

And all my tears belong to you 

Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh 

It's been so long since I last heard your laughter 

So many letters and still no news 

I hope you find all the things that you're after 

You know my heart is with you 

You were runnin' down the road 

I was going your way 

I stopped and turned around to lent you my hand 

You smiled though you were suffering 

I didn't understand, then 

You broke into my heart 

I saw your eyes and then I knew 

You broke into my heart 

Like the wind and rain that followed you 

You broke into my heart 

Had the Lord above forgotten you? 

You broke into my heart 

I saw your eyes and then I knew 

You broke in from the start 

And all my tears belong to you 

Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh 

Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh, 

Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh.
