Lyrics
The day is at sunset
The day is ending.
Upon the sea
Overlooking the sea.
The sunrise warms the mountains
The sunrise is warming the mountains.
And starts the day for me
Starting a new day for the speaker.
The wind brings the rain
The wind brings rain.
Turns the valleys green
Turning the valleys green.
It's a place I call home
Describing a place called home.
The most beautiful I have ever seen
It's the most beautiful place the speaker has ever seen.
And I can't get lonely just knowing that it's there
The speaker doesn't feel lonely knowing that this place exists.
I love that place only
Expressing love for that place.
And tell everybody who wants to hear
Telling everyone about this place.
That down in Africa
Referring to a place in Africa.
There's a town that I prefer
A town in Africa that the speaker prefers.
To anything that mine made or
Preferred over anything created by the speaker.
Any sum of money paid
More valuable than any amount of money.
Down in Africa
Reiterating the town in Africa as special.
There's a town that I prefer
Reaffirming the preference for the town.
To any other place in the world
It's the speaker's favorite place in the world.
It's been torn apart
Describing the town as torn apart due to a battle for human rights.
In a battle for human rights
Highlighting the struggle for human rights.
Made headlines the whole world over
The town gained global attention for human rights issues.
Always see out the fights
Always involved in fights for rights.
Turn your cameras to the mountains
Directing attention to the mountains through cameras.
And show them the scene
Showcasing a scene from the mountains.
And I pray to God that in this town
Praying for freedom for every man in that town.
Every man should be free
Expressing a desire for universal freedom in the town.
And I hate the laws
Expressing hatred for laws turning the home into a battleground.
That turn my home to a battleground
Despite the laws, the place is beautiful.
It's such a beautiful place
Emphasizing the beauty of the place.
Truly goodness and mercy must be found
Goodness and mercy should prevail in that town.
Down in Africa
Reiterating the preference for the town in Africa.
There's a town that I prefer
Preferred over anything created by man.
To anything that man has made or
More valuable than any amount of money.
Any sum of money paid
Reaffirming the town's special status.
Down in Africa
