Johnny Clegg & Savuka - Tell him again lyrics

rate me

Tell him again he don't care much to hear

Mtsheleni madoda akafuni ukulalele

I was talking to him again

But the never understands me

He thinks it is very strange

That I should question what he hands me

He can't imagine I have a feeling for what I can be

Hey brother! Listen to the river whenever you want to remember the sea

Hey brother! Listen to the feeling in your heart it also flows through me

CHORUS:

Tell him again - he don't care much to hear

Tell him again - I need my liberty

Tell him again - freedom's in the air

Tell him again - take these chains off me

Tell him again - he don't care much to hear

Tell him again - he is just like me

Tell him again - freedom's in the air

Tell him again - I was born to be free

We have all been sentenced to this life

Everyone is a defendent

We are all prisoners of time

We are destined to spend it

But we must be free to choose the way we serve the sentence

CHORUS

If there comes a time

I will take this life

And lay it down

For my liberty

Oh it's such a shame

Such a tragedy

But it's all I have

To make you see

All the air I breathe

All the things I have

They don't mean that much

If I can't be free

CHORUS

So long I've been waiting

All my heart is breaking

Freedom long forsaken

Together we can make it
