Missing You Songtext
von Sweet Noise

Heart rate′s hot, the cold at night
The fear's so near, behind my back
Soul′s still fight, the brain is dead
I shed a tear for blood we shed
For all the things you gave, thank you
For all the things, I've been missing you, oh, no

Been missing you for so long I've been missing you
Been missing you for so long I′ve been missing you


Heart rate′s hot, the cold at night
The fear's so near, behind my back
Soul′s still fight, the brain is dead
I shed a tear for blood we shed
For women's cry and truth′s upheld
Hunger took a child away
Sold to men, they sucked your blood
Fear is back, the cold at night
Fire fuels the flame, explosion
Nations feel the blame, corrosion
Heart broke, miss the days
Touch and walk, kiss your ways
Heart broke, miss the days
Touch and walk, kiss your ways
Missing you

I shed my tears for you now, in any way
I spill my blood for you now, in any way
You're on your own, my child now
The pain too real to feel now
The world should be ashamed now
The world should be


Beneath these big blue African skies
Where the devil rapes slaves and the babies get AIDS
Crime plays in my neighborhood of clubs, drugs, hookers and thugs
Severed in a room, attacked by an army of bugs
Kids never seen, meat in a week
And the job situation got a brother bare feet
But I keep on keeping on
Black man in the motherland, understand how to be strong
I′m a southern guy, blood running deep in the soil
Descending from kings and queens, original
From Cairo to the Camissa
I'm in love with you but I had to leave to understand
That my soul is connected to the bush and the jungle
From the roar of the lion to the beat of the warrior drum
Feel the burn of the Kalahari sun
See the joy and the pain in the eyes of a woman and child
In the city streets begging to eat
While daddy's in the yard drunk, falling asleep
Can you believe? Used to have both hands out, tears in my eyes
′Til I saw the bigger picture and it filled me with pride

Been missing you for so long I′ve been missing you
Been missing you for so long I've been missing you

Let me shout from the mountain top
Me, I′m missing the place of me birth non-stop
Me want to drink from una fountain top
It's a yearning so deep inside my heart
Woman land, what you no been through, me know now
That your heart is aching, then I see now
What dem a do fi una children, me want to
Know the truth from the start because
Dem lie about you (Dem lie about you)
Me want fi hold you (Me want fi hold you)
Can′t live without you (Can't live without you)
Me cry out for you
Africa, Africa

Been missing you for so long I′ve been missing you
Been missing you for so long I've been missing you

Heart rate's hot, the cold at night
The fear′s so near, behind my back
Soul′s still fight, the brain is dead
I shed a tear for blood we shed
For women's cry and truth′s upheld
Hunger took a child away
Sold to men, they sucked your blood
Fear is back, the cold at night
Fire fuels the flame, explosion
Nations feel the blame, corrosion
Heart broke, miss the days
Touch and walk, kiss your ways
Heart broke, miss the days
Touch and walk, kiss your ways
Missing you
