Trying hard to speak and
Fighting with my weak hand
Driven to distraction
It's all part of the plan
When something is broken
and wewe try to fix it
Trying to repair it anyway wewe can
I dive in at the deep end
and she become my best friend
I want to upendo wewe but I don’t know if I can
I know something is broken
and I’m trying to fix it
Trying to repair it anyway I can
Oooohh, oooohh
Oooohh, oooohh
wewe and me are floating on a tidal wave… together
wewe and me are drifting into outer space
and singing
Oooohh, oooohh
wewe and me are floating on a tidal wave… together
wewe and me are drifting into outer space
wewe and me are floating on a tidal wave… together
wewe and me are drifting into outer space
and singing
Oooohh, oooohh

To my surprise, and my delight
I saw sunrise, I saw sunlight
I am nothing in the dark
And the clouds burst to onyesha daylight
Ooh and the sun will shine
Yeah on this moyo of mine
Ooh and I realise
Who cannot live without
Ooh come apart without
It
On a kilima top, on a sky-rise
Like a first born child
At full tilt, and in full flight
Defeat darkness, breaking daylight
Ooh and the sun will shine
Yeah on this moyo of mine
Ooh and I realise
Who cannot live without
Ooh come apart without
Daylight
Slowly breaking through the daylight (x22 to fade)
I saw sunrise, I saw sunlight

Lovers, keep on the road you're on
Runners, until the race is run
Soldiers, you've got to soldier on
Sometimes even right is wrong
They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
But I have no doubt
One day, we are gonna get out
Tonight maybe we're gonna run
Dreaming of the Osaka sun
Ohh ohh...
Dreaming of when the morning comes
They are turning my head out
To see what I'm all about
Keeping my head down
To see what it feels like now
But I have no doubt
One siku the sun will come out
Ooh...
Runners, until the race is run

There's a wild wind blowing
Down the corner of my street
Every night there the headlights are glowing
There's a cold war coming
On the radio I heard
Baby it's a violent world
Oh upendo don't let me go
Won't wewe take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
I could hear the sirens sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Time came a-creepin'
Oh and time's a loaded gun
Every road is a ray of light
It goes o-o-on
Time only can lead wewe on
Still it's such a beautiful night
Oh upendo don't let me go
Won't wewe take me where the streetlights glow
I could hear it coming
Like a serenade of sound
Now my feet won't touch the ground
Gravity release me
And dont ever hold me down
Now my feet won't touch the ground.
