One day I looked up and there you were,
like a
simple question looking for an answer.
Now I am
the whale listening to some inner
call,
swimming blindly to throw myself upon
your shore.

What if I don't find you when
I have landed?
Will you leave me here to die
on your shore stranded?

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

I sing dela,
dela ngyanya dela when I'm 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
wating day and night, I burn for you.

A
blind bird sings inside the cage that is my
heart,
the image of your face comes to me when
I am 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 to capture
you.

I think I know, 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 sing dela, dela ngyanya
dela when I'm 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 wating
day and night, I burn for you.

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
wating day and night, I burn for you.

Burn
for you, I burn for you...
