African Sunrise
African Sunrise: Embracing Newfound Passion in the Rhythm of Life
Lyrics
Here is a chance
Expressing the opportunity or moment at hand.
I can see it in the glance
Observing a positive indication in a quick look.
Oh there's a new found passion for the land
Acknowledging a newfound passion for the land.
In an African band
Highlighting a musical connection to Africa.
Stab him in the back and the breaking of the bones
Describing betrayal and harm with metaphorical language.
Cover my eyes but the ears can hear
Suggesting an attempt to avoid seeing something unpleasant.
The sound of thunder
Noting the audible presence of a powerful force (thunder).
Is the rhythm, is the rhythm, is the rhythm, coming home?
Pondering the return of a rhythmic element, possibly symbolic.
Is the rhythm, is the rhythm, is the rhythm, coming home?
-Hush now my angel oh don't say a word
Advising someone to remain silent, possibly for reflection.
As I'm no longer cold but I'm warmed by the thought and I'm stilled in my heart
Expressing warmth and stillness in response to a comforting thought.
And stronger by will
-One too many and a thousand not enough
Emphasizing excessiveness in love, with a play on words.
This love is no surprise this is an African sunrise
Declaring that the love experienced is not surprising, likened to an African sunrise.
Oh up, up whole world
Encouraging an upward perspective for the entire world.
Is the rhythm, is the rhythm, is the rhythm, coming home?
Repetition, questioning the return of a rhythmic element.
Is the rhythm, is the rhythm, is the rhythm, coming home?
-Here is the chance now I can see it in the glance for my newfound passion (Newfound passion)
Reiteration of the chance and newfound passion, emphasizing the glance.
Here is the chance now I can see it in the glance for my newfound passion (My newfound passion)
-Hush now my angel oh don't say a word
Repeating the call for silence and expressing emotional strength.
'Cos I'm no longer cold but I'm warmed by the thought and I'm stilled in my heart
-Stronger by will
-One too many and a thousand not enough
Restating the idea of excessive love.
This love is no surprise this is an African sunrise
Reaffirming the unsurprising nature of love, likened to an African sunrise.
(Up, up) Up whole world (Up whole world)
Encouraging a positive outlook for the entire world.
If you see her, will you tell her it's the rhythm, coming home
Pose of a question about conveying a message related to the rhythm.
Is the rhythm, is the rhythm, is the rhythm, coming home?
-Is the rhythm
Repetition and emphasis on asking someone to convey the message about the rhythm.
Will you tell her
-If you see her
-Coming home
-If you see her
Continuation of the request to convey a message about the rhythm and coming home.
Will you tell her
-If you see her
-Coming, come home
-Is the rhythm tell me coming
Repetition emphasizing the question about the rhythm and coming home.
Is the rhythm (Is the rhythm)
-Is the rhythm (Is the rhythm)
-Is the rhythm tell me coming home
-If you see her can you tell her
Finalizing the request to convey a message if someone sees "her."
