YASHIMBAWULA ! (the watchman’s fire is burning)
YASHIMBAWULA ! HAM! YASHIMBAWULA ! YASHIMBAWULA! HAM! YASHIMBAWULA ! What happened to the diamonds in your eyes YASHIMBAWULA ! What happened to the hunger for the days chase ? YASHIMBAWULA ! What happened to the electric smile YASHIMBAWULA ! That danced your life across your face ? YASHIMBAWULA ! We used to talk about changing the world YASHIMBAWULA ! Now all you want to do is change your name YASHIMBAWULA ! Oh Come on baby don’t surrender now YASHIMBAWULA ! To the empty heart of these days. We used to talk so deep into the night You had the heart of a wild horse running You bared your soul to me And we both knew these days were coming Chorus : These days - Blood in the heavens These days - Fire and ice These days - Burning streets and visions These days - Of the loveless child YASHIMBAWULA ! You are the reason I came here YASHIMBAWULA ! You will always be the one I’m looking for YASHIMBAWULA ! I can’t stand to see the way YASHIMBAWULA ! These days are pushing you up against the wall YASHIMBAWULA ! Got to get up, got to move out YASHIMBAWULA ! Face the tide beyond the door Outside there’s a whole world changing We can’t stand here, trapped inside Let’s step out and test the weather Hang on baby, it’s going to be a rough ride thru’ Chorus : These days - Surching for a vision These days - Gun metal blue These days - Will be changing my religion These days - Hearthless and cruel Say the words and fill my sails I will love you through the coming gale We’ll get through the darkest heart of these days It’s killing time Who will watch the watchers ? It’s killing time Who will keep the keepers ? It’s killing time Who will love the lovers ? It’s killing time - could you ? Chorus : These days These days - Oh blood in the heavens These days - Oh fire and ice These days - Oh burning streets and visions These days - Of the loveless child Ah! Ah! These days are the fire nights These days of the loveless Childs Ah these days... I’m taking about of these days Oh these days These days... OH JOP HUM OH JO |
