Lomhlaba unzima, lomhlaba |
|
[this world is a harsh place, this world] |
|
Picture the end of a cycle |
|
Here's the fire from heaven |
|
There's a tired planeet closing down |
|
No more news at eleven |
|
Somewhere the last of a species has died |
|
Somewhere a child is born |
|
When i hold you, i tremble inside |
|
Can we ride out the storm? |
|
Are you tough enough -- can you take the strain? |
|
Are you tough enough -- to walk in the burning rain |
|
Are you tough enough -- can you take the change? |
|
Are you tough enough -- baby just say! |
|
Chorus: |
|
Into the heart of the human dream |
|
Into a strange new world |
|
Remember me under the tree of man |
|
Where i first heard your words |
|
Gonna make it through, i can feel it |
|
What we need is a miracle |
|
What we need is some time |
|
What we need is an angel of mercy |
|
In this life |
|
Are you tough enough -- can you take the heat? |
|
Are you tough enough -- to walk in the burning street |
|
Are you tough enough -- can you take the change |
|
Are you tough enough -- baby just say! |
|
Chorus... |
|
There's your mama and your papa |
|
Waving good-bye in the cold moonlight |
|
In their eyes the confusion of a world gone by |
|
And you hold me tightly as we step out |
|
Into the morning light |
|
And i know you are thinking that for something to be born |
|
Somthing has to die. |
|
Chorus... |
|
Vele vele we mama kunjalo |
|
[it is true, it's obvious. mama, it is just as you say]. |
