A village in a distand land Calling thier name The spirit of the jemba drum Guiding thier way Into thier dreams the ship set sail Bound for far away In the search for the shores of her bay
Cape Town Ohhhh, cape town
Rode the liberation wave Away from the tide Searching for a better day Babies trapped to thier sound Not knowing where the ship would sail Faith was all they had And they finally found thier way home
To the land of love and freedom To the place where we belong Truth and reconciliation Is what's going on It's a time for celebration
The night has just begun So dance in the light of the land That they call cape town
MUSIC.....
It's the land of love and freedom To the place where we belong Truth and reconciliation It's what's going on It's a time for celebration The night has just begun So dance in the light of the land of the sun To the land of love and freedom To the place where we belong Truth and reconciliation Is what's going on It's a time for celebration The night has just begun So dance in the light of the land That they call cape town
La la la la la la La la la la la Oh lu la la la la la Da la la la
Keep the music soft and low If you love her, let her know It's OK to be a little shy Watch the sunset hand in hand Moonlight walks along the sand Dancing underneath the starlit sky
(Hush) There's no need to.. (rush) Listen to the prelude for lovers (Ooh yeah)
You can see her body's arms Deep inside the fire burns Dancing in the glow of candle light Looking in her eyes you know She was here to take it slow You can make this long and last all mine
(Ooh) (Hush) There's no need to.. (rush) Listen to the prelude for lovers Listen to the prelude for lovers (Whisper) Touch her hair
(Kiss her) Come on and listen to the Prelude for lovers
La la la la la la la
la la la la la la
(Hush) There's no need to rush Listen to the prelude.. (for lovers) Prelude for lovers (Whisper) Run your fingers through her hair (Kiss her) Listen to this.. Prelude for lovers
(Ooh.. I know) I know..ooh I know that you're feeling, darling (Prelude for lovers) (There's no need to rush) Just let the music flow (Prelude for lovers) (There's no need to rush)
(Verse 1) I can't believe she's going I said please show me What selfish seeds I plant along the way Black harvest today The empty bed she left me, cold on one side I can't believe, only me Shadows in purple thrill me I cry myself awake at night I can't believe that it's true Here am I, where are you?
(Chorus) Can I cope with today? My love is leavin' me Still I'm hoping she'll stay My love is leavin' me
(Verse 2) But I'll control my feelings And I find faith healing I'll find hope singing The way is so long But I'm going to be strong Oh, what a turn around Soon, someday gonna be bound
(Chorus) Cope with today
My love is leavin' Still I'm hoping she'll stay But my love is leavin' me
(Verse 3) I can't believe, only me Shadows in purple thrill me I cry myself awake each night I can't believe that it's true Here am I, where are you?
Breathing your perfume chills me Dreams never lie Is it true? I'm asking you
Oh my love is leavin' me Still I'm hoping she'll stay My love is leavin' me
Oh Oh my love is leavin' me Still I'm hoping she'll stay My love is leavin' me
There's a voice deep inside me telling me which way to go It's the voice that will guide me when I don't seem to know anymore It's the light when the sun goes down crossing the road that I have found And I'm here on this journey but I don't want to go it alone When the darkness surrounded didn't know where I wanted to go Then I looked and I found you Now I don't need to search anymore Here and now gonna live my life and I wanna have you by my side Cause I'm here on this journey but I don't want to go it alone Standing here in the light No more tears in the night when I look at the love that surrounds me Making my way as your smile is the light of my day
You're my light when the sun goes down crossing the road that I have found And I'm here on this journey and I don't want to go it alone And I'm here on this journey and I don't want to go it alone
