I hear the drums echoing tonight but she only whispers of quiet conversation she's coming in 12 30 flight the 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 she's waiting there for you it's gonna take alot to drag me away from you there's nothing 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! The wild dogs cry out in the night as they grow restless longing for some solitary company I know I must do what's right sure as the Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti I seek to cure what's deep side frightened of this thing that I've become it's gonna take alot 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' waiting there for you! It's gonna take alot 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) I bless the rains down in Africa (I bless the rains) I bless the rains down in Africa i bless the rains down in Africa ( ah, gonna take the time) gonna take some time to the things we never had!
