I HEAR THE DRUMS
ECHOING TONIGHT
AND SHE HEARS
ONLY WHISPERS
OF SOME QUIET
CONVERSATION
SHE'S COMING IN
TWELVE-THIRTY FLIGHT
THE MOONLIT WINGS
REFLECT THE STARS
THAT GUIDE ME
TOWARD SALVATION
I STOPPED AN OLD MAN
ALONG THE WAY
HOPIN' TO FIND
SOME OLD
FORGOTTEN WORDS
OR ANCIENT MELODIES
HE TURNED TO ME
AS IF TO SAY
HURRY BOY
IT'S WAITIN'
THERE FOR YOU
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
GONNA TAKE SOME TIME
TO DO THE THINGS
WE NEVER HAD
OOH OOH
THE WILD DOGS
CRY OUT IN THE NIGHT
AS THEY
GROW RESTLESS
LONGING FOR
SOME SOLITARY
COMPANY
I KNOW THAT I MUST
DO WHAT'S RIGHT
SURE AS KILIMANJARO
RISES LIKE OLYMPUS
ABOVE THE
SERENGETI
I SEEK TO CURE
WHAT'S DEEP INSIDE
FRIGHTENED
OF THIS THING
THAT I'VE BECOME
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
GONNA TAKE SOME TIME
TO DO THE THINGS
WE NEVER HAD
OOH OOH
HURRY BOY
SHE'S WAITING
THERE FOR YOU
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
DOWN IN AFRICA
I BLESS THE RAINS
DOWN IN AFRICA
I BLESS THE RAINS
DOWN IN AFRICA
I'M GONNA
TAKE SOME TIME
TO DO THE THINGS
WE NEVER HAD
OOH OOH
