Johnny Clegg Kilimanjaro song lyrics

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

All my heart is yearning

Like a candle burning in the night

Seasons keep on turning

Sometimes hard to keep up the fight

I will climb the ancient mountain

I will find the last flicker of the light

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I can see a new tomorrow

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I cast aways all my sorrows

What a strange strange freedom

Only free to choose my chains

So hard not to weaken-

Just give up and walk away

I will climb the ancient mountain

I will find the last flicker of the light

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I can see a new tomorrow (oh follow me up)

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I cast away all my sorrows (oh follow me up)

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

It thrills me right down to the marrow (oh follow me up)

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I can see a new tomorrow

Um ho um

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I can see a new tomorrow.

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I cast away all my sorrows

I'm sittin' on the top of Kilimanjaro

I can see a new tomorrow.

I've reached the sun.
