Sometimes alone in the evening, I look outside my window At the shadow in the night I hear the sound of distant crying, the darkness multiplying The weary hearts denied
All I feel is my heartbeat Beating like a drum Beating with confusion All I hear are the voices Telling me to go But I could never run
(Chorus) Cos' in my African Dream Theres a new tomorow Cos' in my african Dream Theres a dream that we can follow
Now when the night begins to fall, I listen for your call I listen for your heartbeat Although my dream is just a dream, another false illusion A shadow in the night
All I want is for our heartbeats The beat just as one To silence that confusion And the pain and the illusion Will dissapear again And we would never run
(Chorus) Cos' in my African Dream Theres a new tommorow Cos' in my african Dream Theres a dream that we can follow
