African Sky Blue

African Sky Blue - Johnny Clegg/Soweto Gospel Choir

African sky blue your children wait

For the dawn

African sky blue soon a new day

Will be born

African sky blue

African sky blue

Will you bless my life

African sunshine

Soon you will warm your children's eyes

The african river water will dance and

Leap in your morning light

African sunshine

African river water

Will you bless my life

Oh will you bless my life

Oh will you bless my life

Oh will you bless my life

What can I know

What can I dream

What can I hope

What will the future bring

You shine through me

But will you see me through

African sky blue

African thunderstorm

Your soldiers march through the air

The african rain will fall

And wash away all my tears

African falling rain

African falling rain

Will you bless my life

Oh will you bless my life

Oh will you bless my life

Oh will you bless my life

The warrior's now a worker

And his war is underground

With cordite in the darkness he milks

The bleeding veins of gold

When the smoking rockface murmurs

He always thinks of you

African sky blue

Will you see him through
