HOUSE OF EXILE |
|
Lucky Dube |
|
Freedom fighter standing on a mountain |
|
In a foreign country |
|
Trying to send a message |
|
To his people, back in the ghetto |
|
He had a home one time |
|
Love of a girl |
|
But he left that behind |
|
Oh yes I can hear him clearly as he whispers in the air |
|
His voice came out loud and clear |
|
All he asked for was a prayer and as he turns to walk away he said |
|
Chorus: |
|
I'm still here in the house of exile |
|
For the love of the nation |
|
Sun went down on the mountain |
|
Birds flew back to their hiding places |
|
Leaving him standing there like a telephone pole |
|
In the still of the night |
|
You and I dream |
|
Dreaming of Romeo & Juliet |
|
All he dreams about is the freedom of the nation |
|
When every man will be equal In the eyes of the law |
|
As he closes his eyes |
|
For the last time he said again |
|
Chorus till fade |
