For every minute that goes by
there's an unanswered question with no reasons why
there's an eagle perching in a dying tree
with one eye on you, and one on me
And I hope to find peace on the
sweet plains of Africa
For every second of my life
there's a lion running through the night
there's an eagle perching in a dying tree
there's a rhinoceros horn on our big tv
And I hope to find peace on the
sweet plains of Africa
For every second of my life
there's a lion running through the night
there's an eagle perching in a dying tree
there's an elephant tusk on our big tv
But I hope to find peace on the
sweet plains of Africa
there's an unanswered question with no reasons why
there's an eagle perching in a dying tree
with one eye on you, and one on me
And I hope to find peace on the
sweet plains of Africa
For every second of my life
there's a lion running through the night
there's an eagle perching in a dying tree
there's a rhinoceros horn on our big tv
And I hope to find peace on the
sweet plains of Africa
For every second of my life
there's a lion running through the night
there's an eagle perching in a dying tree
there's an elephant tusk on our big tv
But I hope to find peace on the
sweet plains of Africa
