In My African Dream

	作曲 : Clegg
	Something broke the place where the rain is bornb
	Something stole the promise from the light of dawn
	People, people were everywhere struggling to get their share
	Honest cruelty in the eyes of the innocent
	Squeezing one more harvest from this tired earth
	They call to you, but the wind just blows away their words
	Didn't believe in miracles, didn't believe you'd come
	Didn't see any reason to carry on
	Chorus:
	But in my african dream, you touched my face
	Raised up my children and gave them grace
	In my african dream you wiped away my tears
	And whispered the promise of a thousand years
	Children with eyes like souls ready to fly
	Looking at me -- for some kind of sacred sign
	Who will teach the young, the names of the ancient ones
	Who will tell them from whence they come
	I have no answer, don't even have a prayer
	All i can do is close my eyes and hope that you will be thre
	In my african dream you blessed the rain
	Let me stand proud, eased the pain,
	You raised me up,
	Gave me love, filled my cup.
	Old man sits in the shade of the thorn treee
	He says "these thorns are all that are true
	Life is suffering, suffering is life,
	Be happy with the small things that come to you
	They will come to you, come to you."
	Chorus
