The Waiting Lyrics by Johnny Clegg & Savuka

The Waiting Lyrics

    Chorus
    Here we stand waiting on the plain
    Darkness has taken the last outpost of the day
    Somewhere gunships hunt their illusive prey
    And i know inside you feel the same way

    The sky in your heart is so grey
    And the jackals howl inside
    I see you walking with your head down
    Tomorrow is always betrayed
    By too much hope displayed
    So you take it as it comes now
    Ngempilo yami yonke
    (with all my life)
    I'm waiting, i'm waiting

    Chorus
    Here we stand waiting on the plain
    Darkness has taken the last outpost of the day
    Somewhere gunships hunt their illusive prey
    And i know inside you feel the same way
    Ngempilo yami yonke
    (with all my life)
    Kudala ngilindele
    (so long i've been waiting)

    You've learned to live inside the space
    That connects each link of chain
    And you say you've got some peace of mind now
    But i know you're waiting all the same
    With an ache that has no name
    When you feel the fresh breath of the invisible wind
    Ngempilo yami yonke
    (with all my life)
    Waiting, i'm waiting

    I will undo these chains
    Ngizowakhumula amakhethanga
    (i will undo these chains)

    Chorus
