weezer - africa

노래는 아프리카의 아름다운 풍경과 함께 사랑하는 사람과의 결속을 강조하며, 이것을 잃지 않기 위한 강한 의지를 표현한다
주인공은 고독과 자기 발견의 과정을 겪으며, 사랑의 소중함과 인간의 내면에 있는 두려움에 대해 고백한다
결국, 미래에 대한 희망과 소중한 경험을 이루기 위한 여정을 다짐한다

I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some old forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say
"Hurry, boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never have
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside
Frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never have
