Lyrics Africa - Toto Cutugno

Africa

You know
I never realized
That a world so incredibly far away as Africa
Could be so close to me
Look where we are right know
On this beautiful little piece of grass
Suffocated by a sea of cement
Oppressed by all the traffic
Look at the people
Running, shouting
Like they have all gone mad
You know I think I just might go back to Africa
You can joke
But you can never compare
This noisy artificial world
With the natural sounds of Africa
A time is strange, mysterious
Weird, almost unreal
Looking to the sky
And raising your arms
You can almost caress it
And you feel inside
To the will to live
Your skin burned
And you feel a man
More man, more sincere
You know I think I might just go back to Africa
