Phil Collins - Lorenzo lyrics

Once upon a time I made a lion roar
He was sleeping in the sunbeams
On the old zoo floor
I had gone to see the park
Where my papa used to play
It's called called Villa Borghese and
It's on the way

Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa

Down on Grand Comoro Island
Where I grew past four
I could swim and fish and
Snorkel on the ocean floor
And the wind laughed
And the wind laughed through the
Trees as if to say
Here's a child who'll want the
World to go his way

Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa

Suddenly for me the world turned upside down
Far from my friends the lions and
The dolphins came this awful sound
Dark shadows
Sounds of thunder raging over me
Came this monster called
'A-dre no leu-ko-dys-tro-phy

Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa

Well they said, they said, they said
(the ones who know it all)
They said from now on for you there
Will be no more standing tall
So I took my parents hands
I lifted my head to say
I'll just have to be a hero
There's no other way!

Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa
Back to To east Africa

I am going back to east Africa
Come with me I am going back
Well I think I am going back
COme with me to east Africa
