Mushanga |
| I can’t forget you, my little Mushanga, I keep a place in my heart for you |
| The days of waiting, they keep getting longer, and not a thing I can do I was a poet, a magazine writer, sent to report on political views |
| It was by chance, through a lens that I met you, a Kingston girl with no shoes |
| You were runnin’down the road, I was going your way |
| You stopped and turned around, and lent you my hand |
| You smiled though you were suffering, I didn’t understand, then |
| You broke into my heart, I saw your eyes and then I knew |
| You broke into my heart, like the wind and rain that followed you |
| You broke into my heart, had the Lord above forgotten you? |
| You broke in from the start, and all my tears belong to you |
| Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh I sat and watched as she danced by the fires |
| Through ancient songs did the tale unfold |
| They sang of diamonds that came from their mountains |
| And loss of lives mining white man’s gold |
| I had to leave and go back to Manhattan |
| Where all my stories are bought and sold |
| I know the city would surely be saddened, if what I knew could be told |
| It’s been so long since I last heard your laughter |
| So many letters and still no news |
| I hope you find all the things that you’re after |
| You know my heart is with you |
| Mushanga, oh, Mushanga, oh (repeats 3x) |
