[Intro]
Na-na-na, na-na
Na-na, na-na
Na-na-na, na-na
Na-na, na-na

[Verse 1]
Though I walk through
Warm sands in Africa
Winds will grow soon
To storms in Africa

[Chorus]
How far to go?
Na-na-na-na
I cannot say
Na-na-na-na
How many more
Na-na-na-na
Will journey this way?

[Verse 2]
Dark skies fall on
Black earth and ivory
Far from your sun
Clouds now close over me

[Interlude]

[Chorus]
How far to go?
Na-na-na-na
I cannot say
Na-na-na-na
How many more
Na-na-na-na
Will journey this way?

[Verse 3]
Storms have come!
Rains wash the earth away
Dark skies fall down
Into another day

[Verse 4]
Rains have now come
From storms in Africa
Time will go on
Through storms in Africa
