I will board the Irish ship so that I won't get left behind I am going down to Africa to search what I can find Through the trails and rivers and valleys I know there is a love that will me mine I'm at the birth of the first mankind I will lead the ghetti drumming til thy love comes home to me I will ride the lion king to meet you somewhere in my dreams I will sing with hopi birds and hang with hippo against the leaves I'm at the birth of the first mankind But when I'm all alone indside, it feels so hard dear I'm in my heart without a thing to do Africa's pretty, weather's fine and dandy But I still haven't found love It's true I hear her voice and now I hear she's coming So run about bees because the sun is so sweet We talked all night and made love the next morning But whether or not it is love It's true And let me just see you in the light Golden safari and moonlit night I can't believe this feels so real I'm finally home Put on your favourite song for me Let down your hair, African breeze Blows it around like your in love In love with me We will sail into the sunset, be as free as we can be We will dance upon the stars and sing in perfect harmony Join hands with African children give them love not property Cause they're the birth of the first mankind We can smile and joke and laugh and play the special tribal games I will tell you how I feel and yes I hope you feel the same And before you'll be my love and ever ever bear my name We're at the birth of the first mankind But when I'm all alone indside, it feels so hard dear I'm in my heart without a thing to do Africa's pretty, weather's fine and dandy But I still haven't found love It's true I hear her voice and now I hear she's coming So run about bees because the sun is so sweet We talked all night and made love the next morning But whether or not it is love It's true And let me just see you in the light Golden safari and moonlit night I can't believe this feels so real I'm finally home Put on your favorite song for me Let down your hair, African breeze Blows it around like your in love In love with me And let me just see you in the light Golden safari and moonlit night I can't believe this feels so real I'm finally home Put on your favourite song for me Let down your hair, African breeze Blows it around like your in love In love with me
