Johnny Clegg, Savuka - Dela - Dcup Remix Lyrics

One day I looked up and there you were
Like a simple question looking for an answer
Now I am the whale listening to some inner call
Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shore

What if I don't find you when I have landed
What if I don't find you when I have landed
I've been waiting for you all my life
I've been waiting day and night, day and night
I've been waiting for you all my life
I've been waiting day and night, I burn for you

I sing, Dela, dela ngyanya dela when I'm with you
Dela, dela mama sondela, I burn for you
Dela, dela ngyanya dela when I'm with you
Dela, dela mama sondela, I burn for you

A blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart
The image of your face comes to me when I am alone in the dark
If I could give a shape to this ache that I have for you
If I could find the voice that says the words that capture you
I think I know why the dog howls at the moon
I think I know why the dog howls at the moon

What if I don't find you when I have landed
What if I don't find you when I have landed
I've been waiting for you all my life
I've been waiting day and night
I've been waiting for you all my life
I've been waiting day and night,
I've been waiting for you all my life
I've been waiting day and night, day and night
I've been waiting for you all my life
I've been waiting day and night, I burn for you

I sing, Dela, dela ngyanya dela when I'm with you
Dela, dela mama sondela, I burn for you
Dela, dela ngyanya dela when I'm with you
Dela, dela mama sondela, I burn for you
