Over Kilimanjaro, she guards her young Speaks to the darkness in the mother tongue She waits and she watches all night long Calls to her lover then she sings this song
I will be there for you whatever comes I am as constant as the beat of a drum My love is stronger than the noon-day sun Over Africa Over Africa
It's a force of nature, it's the power of need It'll heal your baby, then make you bleed I will be patient, I will bide my time I will be waiting like a mama lion, mama lion
I will be there for you whatever comes I am as constant as the beat of a drum My love is stronger than the noon-day sun Over Africa Over Africa Over Africa
See that love and money Between quiet and sin We are just wild things Underneath the skin In the cradle of creation We were made this way Run together To our dying day (change rope)
(Spoken) It's the law of the jungle It's the angst in trees Built by your census baby Die by the tomb I'd walk through fire I would swim the seas As long as I live and breathe You belong to me
I will be there for you whatever comes I am as constant as the beat of a drum My love is stronger than the noon-day sun Over Africa Over Africa
For everything there's a reason We don't always need to know, yeah We fear the light of those that leave us The ones that burn twice as bright Or the ones we love twice as much We miss the most, yeah
And there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, someday you will
'Coz life is short, gotta do your own thing Seems the higher that we fly The more the people try and bring you down, yeah Oh, sometimes you love, sometimes you hate Sometimes you know, sometimes you break You fall down and make mistakes and then fear God
And there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, someday you will
Little piece of heaven, shining like the night No matter what you do, always by your side
And there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, someday you will, someday, be there Someday you will be there, I know, you will
There's a little piece of heaven, shining in the night No matter what you do, it?s always by your side There's little piece of heaven, shining like the night No matter what you do, it's always by your side
Everything, there's a reason We don't always need to know, yeah
But there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, someday you will
Little piece of heaven, shining like the night No matter what you do, always by your side
And there's a little piece of heaven Just waiting for you to come home I know, someday you will, someday you will
Goodbye is not a lover's word It's something I could never say to you Even though you tell me, tell me you are leaving My heart can't believe it's true, oh no, oh no
I'll just say until we meet again I'll just say until we meet again
I remember all the things we shared The loving looks that we once knew Babe, your eyes began to feel like they'll start crying My memories will see me through, see me through
I'll just say until we meet again I'll just say until we meet again
Although you leave my arms you'll never leave my soul The love that I have for you within never grow cool 'Cause in the morning light and in the dark of night Your fire will always burn in my soul
I'll just say until we meet again Oh, darlin' I, I'll just say until we meet again Oh, my love for you will never never grow cold No, my love for you will never leave my soul
I'll just say until we meet again Oh, I'll just say until we meet again I'll just say until we meet again I'll just say until we meet again
Cards on the table and they facin' down We all got a hand to play, ain't no backin' down Aces up your sleeve, they ain't gonna do you no good But the joker's still in play and it just might come your way
Listen to me, don't you hear what I say' Can't you hear what I say, can't you hear what I say? Listen to me, don't you hear what I say' We're lookin' at the Judgment Day
I was holdin' a 10 of diamonds but I wanted a ace People all around the world goin' through changes Look me straight in my face Said I just called to show you, some people never satisfied Wanna trade hands with me little brother See if you can stay alive?
Listen to me, don't you hear what I say' Can't you hear what I say, can't you hear what I say? Listen to me, don't you hear what I say' We're lookin' at the judgment day
[Incomprehensible] brothers and sisters Can they mess 'em around Pullin' the wool over their eyes But the Dealer, we can't fool 'coz He put the cards into play And He know what me and you are holdin' all the time
Listen to me, don't you hear what I say' Can't you hear what I say, can't you hear what I say? Listen to me, don't you hear what I say 'Coz we're lookin' at the Judgment Day comin' down
(Introduction) Yo Mona Lisa, could I get a date on Friday and if your busy, I wouldn't mind taking Saturday.
(Wyclef Talking) Right about now, if you are in your jeep. Please turn up your radio. If you don't have a Jeep, and you have a little hooptie I still want you to crank up your volume. We want all the ladies to sit back, relax, let your hair out. Wyclef presents the Neville Brothers in the house tonight.
(Neville's Singing) I know a girl, she ruled my world. Whatever I need, she supplied. Living in paradise. She ruled my heart, till death do we part. (Her love was like esctasy)
*Chorus* Atleast that's how I thought it would be. (So Neville brothers what you telling me) Atleast that how I thought it would be (One question, what was her name) Mona Lisa, you called my name. Laid it apart but I did not respond And you ask me what I am thinking of In the morning I'll be gone, no more loving after dawn. No longer we can share the love that was never there. When the moon has lost its light. And the stars no longer bright And no longer can we share, the love that was never there. (Ain't no need to cry girl. Its gonna be alright)
Girl don't you cry. (Girl don't you cry) Please dry your eyes All you ever been was faithful in my life. So I apologize I hope the future brings us back together. Atleast that's how I thought it would be. Atleast that's how I thought it would be. (Yo, neville brothers. What was her name)
*Repeat Chorus*
(Wyclef speaking) Right about now if you are in dance, I want you to hold your girl real tight. We got the neville brothers in the house tonight. Along side Wyclef, you know how we do it. I want to apologize to you. I never wrote a love song. This is my first one.
