Intro
D A G D x4
Verse
One day I looked up and there you were
Like a simple question looking for an answer
Now I am a whale listening to some inner call
Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shores
But what if I don't find you when I-- have landed
Would you leave me here to die on your shore stranded?
|* D A G D *|
|* I think I know why the dog howls at the moon *| x2
Pre-Chorus
I say: De--la! De--la! Ngiyade--la! When I'm with you!
De--la! Sonde--la mama! sonde--la I burn for you!
Chorus
I've been waiting for you all my life hoping for a miracle
I've been waiting day and night, day and night
I've been waiting for you all my life waiting for redemption
I've been waiting day and night I burn for you
Instrumental
D A G D x2
Verse
A blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart
The image of your face comes to me when I'm 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
