One day I looked up and there you were, like a simple question looking for an
answer. Now I am the whale listening to some inner call, swimming blindly
to throw myself upon your shore.
What if I don't find you when I have
landed? Will you leave me here to die on your shore stranded?
I think
I know why the dog howls at the moon. I think I know why the dog howls at the
moon.
I sing dela, dela ngyanya dela when I'm with you, dela, sondela
mama sondela, I burn for you.
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 wating day and night, I burn for you.
A blind bird sings inside the
cage that is my heart, the image of your face comes to me when I am 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 to capture you.
I think I know,
I think I know, I think I know, I think I know why the dog howls at the
moon. I think I know why the dog howls at the moon.
I sing dela, dela
ngyanya dela when I'm with you, dela, sondela mama sondela, I burn for
you.
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 wating day and night, I burn for
you.
Sondela, sondela, mama sondela, I burn for you.
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 wating day and night, I burn for you.
