Toto - Africa

Una canción alegre, una canción de una banda llamada TOTO, que como exito mayor tuvo la canción de Roxana, si embargo esta para mí es la mejor, África un continente oscuro, enigmatico, y donde se estan celebrando los mundiales de Fútbol, que busca muchos países salir de la extrema pobreza, donde la corrupción, la ambición han hecho de varios países los mas pobres del mundo, donde la gente sufre para tener que comer, sin embargo África ahi esta, de pie, luchando por lo que nosotros tenemos y despreciamos y es más hasta nos damos el lugar de desperdiciar, algun día este será el continente mas prospero...

Africa
Toto

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
Shes coming in 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, hurry boy, its waiting there for you

Chorus:
Its gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Theres nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had

The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do whats right
Sure as kilimanjaro rises like olympus above the serengeti
I seek to cure whats deep inside, frightened of this thing that Ive become

Chorus

(instrumental break)

Hurry boy, shes waiting there for you

Its gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
Theres nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in africa, I bless the rains down in africa
I bless the rains down in africa, I bless the rains down in africa
I bless the rains down in africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
