Coldplay - Èkó lyrics

Ah hmm

Joseph rode in on a beam of light
Stray dogs to welcome him, fights
Corrugate cathedrals
The sight of the pilgrims going nowhere in
Millions of cars

Lagos a dream in the distance
From promises he'd made behind
Where there was no harvest
But he missed the sky and it's circus
And countless, the stars

In Africa the rivers are perfectly deep
And beautifully wide in Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
And say, "It's alright, child
It's alright"

Yeah ah hmm
Ah hmm

In Africa we dance in the water and hold
Each other so tight in Africa
The mothers will sing you to sleep
And say, "It's alright, child
It's alright"

Joseph rode in on a beam of light
And dreamed of his queen by his side
There'll be a beautiful sunset
And you'll be a beautiful bride
