Johnny Clegg & Savuka – I Call Your Name – 1988

    Paroles

    Oh no, you’ve gone again
    I feel like Daniel in the lion’s den
    Stone cold in the afternoon
    So alone in the empty room

    They say that four walls do not a prison make
    I’m trying to find a way out but there seems no escape
    When I feel the hidden power that lies inside your sound

    Like the ghost inside the atom that spins it round and round
    There’s magic in some words, some things you can’t explain
    That conjures up that feeling of the sun inside the rain

    When the wind is blowing like a lonesome train
    I reach out and touch you and I call your name
    When the night is lonely and I fear the coming day
    I reach out and touch you
    And I call your name — ngibiza igama lakho

    Oh no, don’t let the sun go down
    I’m so low, I feel underground
    There’s no easy road and no easy way
    To say the things I have to say

    ‘Cause I know that time is a distance and distance is a space
    I’ve come so far to find you, it’s you

    I can’t replace
    When I feel the hidden power that lies inside your sound
    Like the ghost inside the atom that spins it round and round
    There’s magic in some words some things you can’t explain
    That conjures up that feeling of the sun inside the rain
