Lyrics:

[00:00.00]Youssou N'Dour & Neneh Cherry - 7 Seconds
[00:26.69]
[00:28.69]Boul ma sene, boul ma guiss madi re nga fokni mane
[00:34.79]Khamouma li neka thi sama souf ak thi guinaw
[00:40.98]Beugouma kouma khol oaldine yaw li neka si yaw
[00:47.17]mo ne si man, li ne si mane moye dilene diapale
[00:52.90]Roughneck and rudeness,
[00:54.54]We should be using,
[00:56.25]on the ones who practice wicked charms
[00:58.69]For the sword and the stone
[01:00.47]Bad to the bone
[01:01.96]Battle is not over
[01:03.53]Even when it's won
[01:07.06]And when a child is born into this world
[01:11.87]It has no concept
[01:14.60]Of the tone the skin is living in
[01:18.00]It's not a second
[01:19.88]7 seconds away
[01:23.03]Just as long as I stay
[01:27.06]I'll be waiting
[01:30.37]It's not a second
[01:32.38]7 seconds away
[01:35.17]Just as long as I stay
[01:39.47]I'll be waiting
[01:42.63]I'll be waiting
[01:48.88]I'll be waiting
[01:50.74]
[01:56.76]J'assume les raisons qui nous poussent de changer tout,
[02:02.60]J'aimerais qu'on oublie leur couleur pour qu'ils esperent
[02:08.35]Beaucoup de sentiments de race qui font qu'ils desesperent
[02:12.14]Je veux les portes grandements ouvertes,
[02:13.81]Des amis pour parler de leur peine, de leur joie
[02:16.25]Pour qu'ils leur filent des infos qui ne divisent pas
[02:20.10]Changer
[02:21.88]
[02:22.25]7 seconds away
[02:25.29]Just as long as I stay
[02:29.29]I'll be waiting
[02:32.66]It's not a second
[02:34.60]7 seconds away
[02:37.73]Just as long as I stay
[02:41.67]I'll be waiting
[02:44.89]I'll be waiting
[02:51.11]I'll be waiting
[02:52.80]
[03:24.18]And when a child is born into this world
[03:28.75]It has no concept
[03:31.68]Of the tone the skin is living in
[03:34.96]And there's a million voices
[03:40.50]And there's a million voices
[03:45.50]To tell you what she should be thinking
[03:48.37]So you better sober up for just a second
[03:52.43]7 seconds away
[03:55.62]Just as long as I stay
[03:59.56]I'll be waiting
[04:03.00]It's not a second
[04:04.87]7 seconds away
[04:08.03]Just as long as I stay
[04:12.03]I'll be waiting
[04:15.07]It's not a second
[04:17.38]7 seconds away
[04:20.54]Just as long as I stay
[04:24.50]I'll be waiting
[04:26.56]
[04:27.86]It's not a second
[04:29.80]7 seconds away
[04:32.92]Just as long as I stay
[04:36.83]I'll be waiting
[04:40.30]It's not a second
[04:42.27]7 seconds away
[04:45.36]Just as long as I stay
[04:49.33]I'll be waiting
[04:51.36]
[04:53.33]
[04:58.62]
[05:01.45]END
