Did I ever say, how I feel about U
A thing I never found that EZ 2 do The things that U do, don't need 2 B heard U No U R actions, baby, speak louder than words Chorus I've got the bottle, bring me U R cup Pop the cork, and try a sup And when U're empty, I'll fill U up We'll drink it down till the sun comes up I'm heading home, like a steaming train Foot 2 the floor, in the driving rain My head is aching and my mouth is dry I've got a thirst only U can satisfy Chorus I've got the bottle, bring me U R cup Pop the cork and try a sup And when U're empty, I'll fill U up We'll drink it down till the sun comes up |

I am the one in ten a number on a list,
I am the one in ten even though I don't exist nobody knows me but I'm always there a statistic a reminder of a world that doesn't care. My arms enfold the dole queue malnutrition dulls my hair my eyes are black and lifeless with an underprevileged stare I'm a beggar on the corner can no one spare a dime I'm the child that never learns to read 'cus no one's spared the time. Refrain I'm the murderer the victim I'm licensed with a gun I'm a sad and bruised old lady in an alley in the slums I'm a middle aged business man with a chronic heart disease I'm another teenage suicide in a street that has no trees. Refrain I'm a starving third-world mother I'm a refugee without a home I'm a housewife hooked on valium I'm a pensioner alone I'm a cancer ridden spectre that's covering the earth I'm another hungry baby I'm an accident of birth. Refrain |

Red red wine goes to my head
Makes me forget that I still need you so Red red wine It's up to you All I can do I've done Memories won't go Memories won't go I have sworn every time Thoughts of you would leave my head I was wrong, now I've found Just one thing makes me forget... Red red wine Stay close to me Don't let me be alone It's tearing apart My blue blue heart I have sworn every time Thoughts of you would leave my head I was wrong, now I've found Just one thing makes me forget... Red red wine Stay close to me Don't let me be alone It's tearing apart My blue blue heart repeat last verse |

The night seems to fade,
But the moonlight lingers on There are wonders for everyone The stars shine so bright, But they`re fading after dawn There is magic in kingston town (chorus) Oh kingston town, The place I long to be If I had the whole world I would give it away Just to see, the girls at play Ooh, ooh, ooh And when I am king, Surely I would need a queen And a palace and everything, yeah And now I am king, And my queen will come at dawn She`ll be waiting in kingston town (chorus) And when I am king, Surely I would need a queen And a palace and everything, yeah And now I am king, And my queen will come at dawn She`ll be waiting in kingston town |

Wise men say, only fools rush in.
But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay? Would it be a sin? I can't help falling in love with you As the river flows gently to the sea Darling so we go, some things were meant to be Take my hand take my whole life too 'Cause i can't help falling in love with you |

Moon and stars sit way up high
Earth and trees beneath them lie The wind blows fragrant lullaby To cool the night for you and I On the wing the birds fly free Leviathan tames angry sea The flower waits for honeybee The sunrise wakes new life in me. (CHORUS) And every hour of every day I'm learning more The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground... The fishes swim while rivers run Thru fields to feast my eyes upon Intoxicated drinking from The loving cup of burning sun In dreams I'll crave familiar taste Of whispered rain on weary face Of kisses sweet and warm embrace Another time another place (CHORUS) And every hour of everyday I'm learning more The more I learn, the less I know about before The less I know, the more I want to look around Digging deep for clues on higher ground... |

Tenderly she smiles
Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally She shines the sun She pours the rain She touches me in places that I can't explain She's got a powerful hold on me The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free Tell me what you know Tell me is it true Do you really love me just like I love you Everything I say Everything I do It's purely cos' I'm aiming to get hold of you People tell her she could do better than me She wouldn't necessarily agree We've got a thing going on you see The two of us together for eternity Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally She shines the sun She pours the rain She touches me in places that I can't explain She's got a powerful hold on me The kind of hold from which I'd never struggle free Tell me what you know Tell me is it true Do you really love me just like I love you Everything I say Everything I do It's purely cos' I'm aiming to get hold of you People tell her she could do better than me She wouldn't necessarily agree We've got a thing going on you see The two of us together for eternity Tenderly she smiles Forgiving my mistakes Getting her to love me Was my biggest break Every place I go, she's inside of me Giving up her love unconditionally |

You know that it would be untrue
You know that it would be lie If I was to say to you Girl we couldn't get much higher The time to hesitate is true No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love becomes a funeral fire The time to hesitate is true No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love becomes a funeral fire [Chorus] Come on baby light my fire Come on baby light my fire Try to set the night on fire The time to hesitate is true No time to wallow in the mire Try now we can only lose And our love becomes a funeral fire [Chorus] You know that it would be untrue You know that it would be a lie If I was to say to you Girl we couldn't get much higher [Chorus] |

Ivory Madonna dying in the dust,
Waiting for the manna coming from the west. Barren is her bosom, empty as her eyes, Death a certain harvest scattered from the skies. Skin and bones is creeping, doesn't know he's dead. Ancient eyes are peeping, from his infant head. Politician's argue sharpening their knives. Drawing up their bargains, trading baby lives. Chorus Ivory madonna dying in the dust, Waiting for the manna coming from the west. Hear the bells are ringing, Christmas on it's way. Hear the angels singing, what is that they say? Eat and drink rejoicing, joy is here to stay. Jesus son of Mary is born again today. Chorus Ivory Madonna dying in the dust, Waiting for the manna coming from the west. Ivory Madonna dying in the dust, Waiting for the manna coming from the west. |

The great flood of tears that we've cried
For our brothers and sisters who've died Over four hundred years Has washed away our fears And strengthened our pride Now we turn back the tide We will no longer hear your command We will seize the control from your hands We will fan the flame Of our anger and pain And you'll feel the shame For what you do in god's name We will fight for the right to be free We will build our own society And we will sing, we will sing We will sing our own song When the ancient drum rhythms ring The voice of our forefathers sing Forward africa run Our day of freedom has come For me and for you Amandla awethu We will fight for the right to be free We will build our own society And we will sing, we will sing We will sing our own song |
