Johnny Clegg - Witness lyrics

[Johnny Clegg - Witness lyrics]

Inside the rain i saw you talkin' to him
Like a play i saw it all unfolding

Then it happened
I couldn't hide my surprise
I'm holding my breath now
I'm trapped by my eyes



And I'm trapped inside
By these things that I've seen
There's another life that
I know could have been

I never asked to be part of this
Wrong place, wrong time to witness
Free me now keeps me down


I saw him fall to the ground i saw you do it
At the edge of the town my life has changed
And though I love you so
I can't share your chains and I have to go



And I'm trapped inside
By these things that I've seen
There's another life that
I know could have been

I never asked to be part of this
Wrong place, wrong time to witness
Free me now keeps me down
Free me now keepin' me down


That's your voice on the phone
You don't hear the pain I own

Walk away let me go
This fallen sky free my soul


And I'm trapped inside
By these things that I've seen
There's another life that
I know could have been

I never asked to be part of this
Wrong place, wrong time to witness
Free me now keeps me down
Free me now keepin' me down


Keepin' me down free me now
Keepin' me down
