Great Heart - Live

Great Heart
 By: Johnny Clegg
 1987
 Travelling always increases the appetite for new music and I found Johnny Clegg tapes in the south of France and was immediately hooked on them. I'm glad there are still younger artists who write and play their own songs that I wish I had written. This is one of them.

 The world is full of strange behavior
 Every man has to be his own savior
 I know I can make it on my own if I try
 But I'm searchin' for a great heart to stand me by
 Underneath the African sky
 A great heart to stand me by
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 To hold and keep me by
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Under African sky
 Sometimes I feel that you rarely know me (sometimes)
 Sometimes there's so much you can show me (sometime)
 There's a highway of stars across the heavens
 There's a whispering song of the wind in the grass
 There's a rolling thunder across the savannah
 And a hope and a dream at the edge of the sky
 And your life is the story of the wind
 Your life is a story like the wind
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 To hold and keep me by
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Under African sky
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 I see the fire in your eyes
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 That beats my name inside
 Sometimes I feel that you rarely know me (sometimes)
 Sometimes there's so much you can show me (sometime)

 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Under African sky
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 I see the fire in your eyes
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 That beats my name inside
 Sometimes I feel that you rarely know me (ah... sometimes)
 Sometimes there's so much you can show me (ay yai... sometime)
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Guk a 'mzimbo sala 'nhilziyo
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Guk a 'mzimbo sala 'nhilziyo
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Guk a 'mzimbo sala 'nhilziyo
 I'm searching for the spirit of the great heart
 Guk a 'mzimbo sala 'nhilziyo
