Johnny Clegg & Savuka - Rolling Ocean Lyrics
Chorus:You are the rolling oceanYou are the mighty seaYou are the breath that brings each new day to meYou are what you are, you areYou be what you are, you be what you areSome came to conquerSome came to understandSome came to live their lives as best they canMe, I looked up at the stars to find my wayBut I was young and I got them mixed upAnd so forgot my nameAs I tried to remember you were standing next to meWhile other came seeking powerYou, you had come to set them freeChorusWomen of salt and earthThey tell the same storyThey saw you walking woundedWearing rags of gloryAnd when you rejoiced they saw you smiling at your rejoicingWhen you wept they saw you smiling at your weepingWhen you smiled they saw you smiling at your smilingAnd you said thats the way Ive survived these years of dust andBlood.ChorusSuffer little childrenSuffer sister, brother tooSuffer mother, fatherThats all the world can promise youIn our hearts we feel itA mighty dream is coming trueHold on and well dream itKeep it up were going to push it throughDont give it up, dont give it up
