Driving down the road |
|
Under the southern light |
|
Looking back to see |
|
Where we've come from |
|
As we watched the sun go down |
|
Rain it fell like diamonds |
|
From Kimberley mines |
|
On the road to |
|
Jo'burg With the dying light |
|
Farewal Durban |
|
City of Natal |
|
Stopped a while to stretch my thoughts |
|
As we crossed the borderline |
|
And into Transvaal |
|
I saw the sun go down |
|
Under the southern skies |
|
Over and over |
|
I'll always remember |
|
Those beautiful |
|
African nights |
|
In the old |
|
VW We'd count the miles |
|
We travelled with a friend |
|
Whose name was |
|
Farr The stories that he told us |
|
Talked of faces |
|
Times and places |
|
Sang and played his guitar |
|
Driving down the road |
|
We hear the morning rise |
|
Leaving all the past |
|
So far behind |
|
The sound man played the |
|
Eagles As we listen "Take It Easy" |
|
Echoes on through our lives |
|
I saw the sun go down |
|
Under the southern skies |
|
Over and over |
|
I'll always remember |
|
I still hear them call |
|
No matter how far |
|
Those beautiful |
|
African nights |
