The Crossing osiyeza Lyrics

    (for dudu)

    Through all the days that eat away
    At every breath that i take
    Through all the nights i've lain alone
    In someone else's dream, awake
    All the words in truth we have spoken
    That the wind has blown away
    It's only you that remains with me
    Clear as the light of day

    Chorus: o siyeza, o siyeza , sizofika webaba noma
    (we are coming, we are coming, we will arrive soon)
    O siyeza, o siyeza, siyagudle lomhlaba
    (we are coming, we are coming, we are moving across this earth)
    Siyawela lapheshaya lulezontaba ezimnyama
    (we are crossing over those dark mountains)
    Lapha sobheka phansi konke ukhulupheka
    (where we will lay down our troubles)

    A punch drunk man in a downtown bar
    Takes a beating without making a sound
    Through swollen eyes he sways and smiles
    'cause noone can put him down
    Inside of him a boy looks up to his father
    For a sign or an approving eye
    Oh, it's funny how those once so close and now gone
    Can still so affect our lives

    Chorus

    Take me now, hold me close
    Don't let go, i'm coming home

    Chorus
