johnny clegg - new world survivor lyrics
[verse 1]
i was sitting at the corner cafe
looking across montego bay
i wanted to remember the perfect view
but i was looking at my watch
i was waiting for you
with secrets and your eyes that sing
with your soft skirt flowing in the wind
it’s a picture that you always paint
between the sinners and the saints
[chorus]
is this water?
am i drowning?
is this water?
there’s a boat out on the ocean
there’s a swimmer in the tide
there’s a nervous crowd that’s watching
hope he makes it to the other side…
ah ah
in this strange and new territory
i await your arrival
i’m strong when you stand next to me
i’ll be your new world survivor
[verse 2]
in a world that’s changing
nothing is what it seems
the old order is caving
hold onto your dreams
you stand out like a beacon in the night
my ship is sailing by your true light
all around us everything falling
everything falling
[chorus]
is this water?
am i drowning?
is this water?
there’s a boat out on the ocean
there’s a swimmer in the tide
there’s a nervous crowd that’s watching
hope he makes it to the other side…
ah ah
in this strange and new territory
i await your arrival
i’m strong when you stand next to me
i’ll be your new world survivor
i see the promise of your light
as we sail across these dark oceans of change
ah ah
in this strange and new territory
i await your arrival
i’m strong when you stand next to me
i’ll be your new world survivor
