Through all the days that eat away At every breath that I take Through all the nights I have lain alone In someone else's dream, awake All the words in truth that have been spoken That the wind has blown away Oh, it's only you that remains with me Clear as the light of day O siyeza, o siyeza Sizofika webaba noma O siyeza, o siyeza Siyagudle lomhlaba Siyawela lapheshaya Lulezontaba ezimnyama Lapha sobheka phansi Konke ukhulupheka A punch-drunk man in a downtown bar Takes a beating without making a sound Through swollen eyes, oh he sways and he smiles 'Cause no one can put him down Inside of him a boy looks up to his father For a sign or an approving eye Oh, it's funny how those once so close and now gone Still so affect our lives O siyeza, o siyeza ( Oh I'm be coming, I'll be coming ) Sizofika webaba noma ( You know the tide is turning ) O siyeza, o siyeza ( I'm telling you the tide is turning ) Siyagudle lomhlaba ( Gonna make my crossing ) Siyawela lapheshaya ( Over this dark land ) Lulezontaba ezimnyama Lapha sobheka phansi ( Gonna lay me down ) Konke ukhulupheka Take me now Don't let go Hold me close I'm coming home O siyeza, o siyeza ( Yes I'm coming home, yes I'm coming home ) Sizofika webaba noma ( Never let me down, never let me down ) O siyeza, o siyeza ( Never let me down ) Siyagudle lomhlaba ( Gonna make this crossing ) Siyawela lapheshaya ( Over the dark land ) Lulezontaba ezimnyama ( Gonna touch your face ) Lapha sobheka phansi Konke ukhulupheka ( In that green field of grace ) O siyeza, o siyeza Sizofika webaba noma ( You know the tide is turning ) O siyeza, o siyeza ( Telling you the tide is turning ) Siyagudle lomhlaba ( Gonna make my crossing ) Siyawela lapheshaya ( Over this dark land ) Lulezontaba ezimnyama Lapha sobheka phansi Konke ukhulupheka O siyeza, o siyeza ( Yes I'm coming home, I'm coming home ) Sizofika webaba noma ( Coming home, never let me down ) O siyeza, o siyeza ( Never let me down ) Siyagudle lomhlaba Siyawela lapheshaya Lulezontaba ezimnyama Lapha sobheka phansi Konke ukhulupheka
