I hear the [bad word] echoing tonight,
cheers only wisper of some quiet conversation. [bad word] in 12:30 flight
moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation.

hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies.

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 [bad word] 
I know that I must do what's right

I seek to cure what's deep inside 
frightened of this thing that i've [bad word] 

(Chours)

It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you,
there's 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)
I bless the rains down in Africa, (ooo I bless the rains)
I bless the rains down in Africa,
I bless the rains down in Africa, [bad word] and take me down)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had.
