Johnny Clegg & Savuka - Shine a light lyrics

Shine a light, shine a light Oh you've got to careful in this world a little sister said to me Beware of the silver tongue which hides a gun and a tyranny It will speak in words of water It will drown you in its lies You must be like the fish in the river Ad learn to swim against the tide CHORUS: Some of de man give light in de darkness Some of de man he give a cry Some of de man he gonna live through the season Some of de man he gonna die Yo yo mam ye! The wheel turn around Give me no rest She want to hear me cry In the darkness - Shine a light! I drop to the ground And hope for the best I'm going through the eye Of the hurricane - Shine a light! Oh it's such a sad feeling to see the swallows in the sky It's like you leaving me behind without saying goodbye I've got to be like a bird in winter I've got to learn how to fly And if you ever leave I'll also take to the sky CHORUS Speak to me slow slow What's going on I don't know Someone's on the run Speak to me slow slow Has it all begun I don't know If he'll make this one Speak to me slow slow What's the time Idon't know Can I save this life of mine CHORUS
