Dela (i Know Why The Dog Howls At The Moon)

One day i looked up and there you were

Like a simple question looking for an answer

Now i am a whale listening to some inner call

Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shores

what if i don't find when i have landed

Would you leave me here to die on your shores stranded?

I think i know why the dog howls at the moon.

I think i know why the dog howls at the moon.



I say:

"dela! dela! ngiyadela!



When i am with you!

Dela! sondela mama! sondela!



I burn for you!





I've been waiting for you all my life

hoping for a miracle

I've been waiting day and night, day and night

I've been waiting for you all my life

Waiting for redemption

I've been waiting day and night

I burn for you



A blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart

And the image of your face comes to me when i'm alone in the dark

If i could give a shape to this ache that i have for you

If i could find the voice that says the words that capture you

I think i know, i think i know

I think i know why the dog howls at the moon.

I think i know why the dog howls at the moon.



I say:

"dela! dela! ngiyadela!



When i am with you!

Dela! sondela mama! sondela!



I burn for you!



I've been waiting for you all my life

hoping for a miracle

I've been waiting day and night, day and night

I've been waiting for you all my life

Waiting for redemption

I've been waiting day and night



sondela! sondela mama! sondela!

I burn for you



I've been waiting for you all my life

hoping for a miracle

I've been waiting day and night, day and night

I've been waiting for you all my life

Waiting for redemption

I've been waiting day and night

I burn for you



I burn for you

burn for you

I burn for you

burn for you

I burn for you

burn for you

I burn for you

burn for you.
