Africa Lyrics By Toto

    david paich
    i hear the drums echoing tonight
    but she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
    she’s coming in 0 flight
    her moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
    i stopped an old man along the way
    hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
    he turned to me as if to say
    hurry boy it’s waiting there for you

    bobby kimball
    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

    david paich
    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
    as 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

    bobby kimball
    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

    hurry boy she’s waiting there for you

    bobby kimball
    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
    gonna take some time to do the things we never had
