Leaving for Africa

(Solo)

[Intro: Tribal singing]
Ndi muzungu, ndi muzungu, ooh-ooh
Ndi muzungu, ndi muzungu, ooh-ooh

[Verse 1]
Did you see the clock, did you see it turn?
Every second passing, will you still yearn?
I said I’m leaving, not just for show,
Africa calls me, I need to go.

[Pre-Chorus]
Are you really listening? Are you awake?
This heart is breaking, for heaven’s sake.
Is the distance a game you pretend?
Or do you understand, how much I intend?

[Chorus]
Do you know I’m really leaving?
Can you feel that I’m believing?
Is it clear, do you see?
I’m seeking my peace in Africa’s trees.

[Verse 2]
Think you’re joking when I say goodbye?
Little do you know how much I’ve cried.
This land is calling, I can’t ignore,
Deep inside, I’ll find my core.

[Pre-Chorus]
Are you really listening? Are you awake?
This heart is breaking, for heaven’s sake.
Is the distance a game you pretend?
Or do you understand, how much I intend?

[Chorus]
Do you know I’m really leaving?
Can you feel that I’m believing?
Is it clear, do you see?
I’m seeking my peace in Africa’s trees.

[Bridge: Male vocal]
(Africa, Africa, call my name)
(Leaving but still the same)
(Will you remember me?)
(As I chase my destiny)

(Solo)

[Outro: Tribal singing]
Ndi muzungu, ndi muzungu, ooh-ooh
Ndi muzungu, ndi muzungu, ooh-ooh
