You say you're surprised I thought I'd write today Pieces of my life That time can't fade away Land lies dry - africa And the clouds roll by - africa I held you every night I believed in all you'd say Now the dust blows in my eyes But those dreams won't fade away
The sky burns red - africa Don't you cry - africa
Africa When you cry it rains - africa
Still the children smile - africa When you cry it rains - africa When the wild dogs howl - africa Still the clouds roll by - africa
