Paul Colman Trio (PC3) - Africa lyrics

rate me

Africa<br />

I came to change you but instead you changed me<br />

And I confess I came to frame you in a photograph<br />

But you showed me why<br />

And you turned this heart around<br />

And I see your smile how it can be<br />

So much brighter than me<br />

And your silent eyes they scream<br />

Of hunger and meaning and eternal dreaming<br />

Africa<br />

Africa<br />

We smiled at you from behind the glass<br />

And without reserve and whiter than snow<br />

You smiled back at us<br />

And you showed me who<br />

And you turned this mind around<br />

And I see your hands reach out to God <br />

So much higher than ours<br />

And your silent eyes they scream<br />

Of hunger and meaning and eternal dreaming<br />

Africa<br />

Afrika mimi naku penda <br />
