Johnny Clegg & Savuka - The Crossing Lyrics
(for dudu)Through all the days that eat awayAt every breath that I takeThrough all the nights Ive lain aloneIn someone elses dream, awakeAll the words in truth we have spokenThat the wind has blown awayIts only you that remains with meClear as the light of dayChorus: o siyeza, o siyeza , sizofika webaba noma(we are coming, we are coming, we will arrive soon)O siyeza, o siyeza, siyagudle lomhlaba(we are coming, we are coming, we are moving across this earth)Siyawela lapheshaya lulezontaba ezimnyama(we are crossing over those dark mountains)Lapha sobheka phansi konke ukhulupheka(where we will lay down our troubles)A punch drunk man in a downtown barTakes a beating without making a soundThrough swollen eyes he sways and smilescause noone can put him downInside of him a boy looks up to his fatherFor a sign or an approving eyeOh, its funny how those once so close and now goneCan still so affect our livesChorusTake me now, hold me closeDont let go, Im coming homeChorus
