Africa lyrics

They say the sights and sounds down in Africa Seem like ones you've seen and heard before Even though you arrive For the very first time You have a sense of returning They say there is a dream down in Africa Dreamt about 5 million years ago It's a dream to survive A dream of standing upright And setting out on a new life So I say to my hands, can you remember Africa? And I say to my feet, do you remember Africa? Do you remember? Do you remember Africa? You can hear a song down in Africa Between the eastern mountains and the coast It's a song that you know Rising up from the bones And it's telling your story There is a human heart born in Africa Beating now for eons, it is your own A tenacious, ancient will Quite alive inside you still And it's dreaming on Dreaming on So I say to my hands, can you remember Africa? And I say to my feet, do you remember Africa? Do you remember? Do you remember Africa?
