I CALL YOUR NAME

 

Ngibiza Igama Lakho

Oh no, you’ve gone again

I feel like Daniel in the lion’s den

Stone cold in the afternoon

So alone in the empty room

They say that four walls

Do not a prison make

I’m trying to find a way out

But there seems no escape

When I feel the hidden power

That lies inside your sound

Like the ghost inside the atom

That spins it round and round

There’s magic in some words

Something you can’t explain

That conjures up that feeling 

Of the sun inside the rain

 

Chorus

When the wind is blowing like a lonesome train

I reach out and touch you

And I call your name

When the night is lonesome and I fear the coming day

I reach out and touch you

And I call your name - Ngibiza igama lakho

 

Oh no, don’t let the sun go down

I’m so low, I feel under ground

No easy road, no easy way

To say the things I have to say

‘Cause I know that time is a distance

And distance is a space

I’ve come so far to find you

It’s you I can’t replace

When I feel the hidden power

That lies inside your sound

Like the ghost inside the atom

That spins it round and round

There’s magic in some words

Something you can’t explain

That conjures up that feeling 

Of the sun inside the rain

 

Chorus
