Chris De Burgh - Africa Lyrics
I hear the drums echoing tonight,
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation,
She's coming in twelve-thirty flight,
Her moonlit wings reflect the stars
That guide me towards salvation,
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient memories,
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you",
Gonna to take a lot to drag me away from you,
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do,
I’ll bless the rains down in Africa,
Going to take some time to do the things we never had;
Wild dogs cry out in the night,
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company,
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,
Gonna to take a lot to drag me away from you,
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do,
I’ll bless the rains down in Africa,
Going to take some time to do the things we never had;
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you,
Gonna take a lot to drag me away from you,
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do,
I”ll bless the rains down in Africa,
I’ll bless the rains down in Africa,
I’ll bless the rains down in Africa,
I’ll bless the rains down in Africa,
I’ll bless the rains down in Africa,
Going take some time to do the things we never had...

Chris, I would love to know why you picked this song as a cover. For me, this one has been one of my favorite songs for a long time and it is only coincidence that it was released the same year when I was born. You did a great job on this and I loved watching you perform. Greetings from Germany xoxo
Heard this again last week saw Chris in Symphony hall Birmingham awesome
Amazing song and very nice sound.

Abrigado!
OMG Chris, that Toto song. My fav song and you also. I loved. I saw Toto concert in JHCC. Remembering their amazing group band..
If he had original did this nobody would have questioned it because it sounds so much like Toto's version I questioned it even after I saw Toto live just months before Chris at the same location Rama
lol
Loved seeing him live and this song he did an awesome copy of the original
Chris, you challenge Toto.
Harıka
I have sen Tot and Chris live in the same Casino Rama and realy not much different but Chris has a smother voice
