Africa Is Where My Heart Lies
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A picturesque sunset lights up the sky
A magical moment of light passing by
Romantic rhythms that beat through the night
Mother nature's gift for you and I
Oh! Oh!
Africa is my hope
Don't you know that home is
Where my heart lies
Across the ocean
Into the African skies
Through the hills and valleys
Over the mountains
Africa, is where my heart lies
A new day dawns upon our land
Breathing life for the creation of man
Holding treasures of beauty given for all
The African dream. that touches the soul
Of all
Our motherland, our home
Don't you know that home is
Where my heart lies
Across the ocean
Into the African skies
Through the hills and valleys
This is where I'll stay
The birthplace of my heart
