December African Rain

Standing on the earth, seagull flying
Standing on the earth, the sky is bleeding
Standing on the earth, the sun is leaving
Or leaving us behind

Once there was an African love song
Helped us on our way
And made our hearts feel as strong
As an African day

Singing bye, bye December African rain
Well long gone, summer has passed
And I hear the owls calling my name
The firelight has danced its last across your face my friend
Although I love you
I somehow know this is going to be the end

Now the sun has disappeared and all that remains
An old tin mug and a photograph
So, wipe away those tears and remember the good times

Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh

Standing on the earth, the moon is rising
Somewhere in the world the spirit flying
Standing on the earth, the leaves are falling
While taking us away

I never knew whom I could love more
You or the land
Till I stood lost upon that shore
Naked and alone

Singing bye, bye December African rain
Well long-gone Summer has passed
And I hear the owls calling my name

The firelight dances last across your face my friend
Although I love you, I somehow know this is gonna be the end
'Cause all the birds have flown away
The night is closing in
It's so hard to say goodbye to eyes as old as yours now my friend

Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh

Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh
Yim boh

Where did the time go?
Can you tell me where did the time go?
Where did my life go?

And can you tell me where did my life go?
Where did your life go?
Well can you tell me where did your life go?
