She's coming in 12:30 flight

The (2)______________ wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation

Hoping to find some long (3)__________________ (4)__________ or ancient melodies

He turned to me as if to say, "hurry boy, it's (5)______________ there for you"



Chorus:

It's gonna take a lot to drag me (6)________ from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in africa

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had



The wild dogs cry out in the night

As they grow restless longing for some solitary company

I know that i must do what's right

Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you



It's gonna (8)________ a lot to drag me away from you

There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do

I bless the rains down in africa, i bless the rains down in africa

I bless the (9)__________ down in africa, i bless the rains down in africa

I bless the rains down in africa

Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
