Yashimbawula! (the watchmans fire is burning)
What happened to the diamonds in your eyes,
What happened to the hunger for the days chase?
What happened to the electric smile
That danced across your face
We used to talk about changing the world
Now all you want to do is change your name
Come on baby dont surrender now
To the empty heart of these days.
We used to talk so deep into the night
You had the heart of a wild horse running
You bared your soul to me
And we both knew these days were coming
Chorus:
These days -- blood in the heavens
These days -- fire and ice
These days -- burning streets and visions
These days -- of the loveless child
Yashimbawula!
You were the reason I came here
You will always be the one I am looking for
I cant stand to see the way
These days are pushing you against the wall
Got to get up, got to move out
Face the tide beyond the door
Outside theres a whole world changing
We cant stand here, trapped inside
Lets step out and test the weazther
Hang on baby, its going to ge a rough ride thru
Chorus
These days -- searching for a vision
These days -- gun metal blue
These days -- changing my religion
These days -- heartless and cruel
Say the words and fill my sails
I will love you through the coming gale
Well get through the darkest heart of these days
Its killing time
Who will watch the watchers?
Who will keep the keepers?
Who will love the lovers -- could you?
Chorus....
Savuka, occasionally referred to as Johnny Clegg and Savuka, was a multi-racial South African band formed in 1986 by Johnny Clegg after the disbanding of Juluka. Savuka's music blended traditional Zulu musical influences with Celtic music and rock music that had a cross-racial appeal in South Africa. Their lyrics were often bilingual in English and Zulu and they wrote several politically charged songs, particularly related to apartheid. Some better-known Savuka songs include "Asimbonanga", and "Third World Child", from their 1987 album Third World Child. Band percussionist Dudu Zulu was killed in 1992; their song "The Crossing" was a tribute to him.
