Toto - Mushanga Lyrics
I cant forget you, my little mushanga, I keep a place in my heart for youThe days of waiting, they keep getting longer, and not a thing I can doI was a poet, a magazine writer, sent to report on political viewsIt was by chance, through a lens that I met you, a kingston girl with no shoesChorus:[You were runnin down the road, I was going your wayYou stopped and turned around, and lent you my handYou smiled though you were suffering, I didnt understand, thenYou broke into my heart, I saw your eyes and then I knewYou broke into my heart, like the wind and rain that followed youYou broke into my heart, had the lord above forgotten you?You broke in from the start, and all my tears belong to youMushanga, oh, mushanga, oh]I sat and watched as she danced by the firesThrough ancient songs did the tale unfoldThey sang of diamonds that came from their mountainsAnd loss of lives mining white mans goldI had to leave and go back to manhattanWhere all my stories are bought and soldI know the city would surely be saddened, if what I knew could be toldIts been so long since I last heard your laughterSo many letters and still no newsI hope you find all the things that youre afterYou know my heart is with youChorusMushanga, oh, mushanga, oh (repeats 3x)
