Vusi Mahlasela, Jem - Everytime Lyrics

Everytime you're in my dream
I close my eyes
And you're there
Standing in a circle of stones
Storm clouds building up in the sky

Ripe fruit splits in the sun
Thunder rolls rainstorm comes
Can hardly bear this ecstasy
This strange hold you have on me

Everytime I see the red sun fall in an African sky
You're always on my mind, everytime
Spinning me round in time, everytime (Everytime)
Everytime (Everytime)

Everytime I try to picture you
Beneath those cold northern skies
I see you walking by the river Lekwa
Your beauty burns the dusk like fire

Sacred rites from our sun-drunk days
Feel the power coming through
Hear flowing down my shivering limbs
Pulling my mind across the world
Across to you

Everytime I see the red sun fall in an African sky
You're always on my mind, everytime
Spinning me round in time, everytime (Everytime)

As the last light fades away
Darkness brings no comfort for my memories
In dreams I call you name
In dreams I read out and touch you
Oh, you already know
So don't turn away
Or make me explain
How the wind turns to steel
Cold hard and blue
When I'm away from you

ndiyakhumbula
Oh sithandwa sam
Lovey mama
Njalo nje
Njalo nje

Everytime, everytime
Spinning me round in time, everytime (Everytime)

You're always on my mind, everytime
Spinning me round in time, everytime
Everytime (Everytime)
Everytime (Everytime)
Everytime (Everytime)
Everytime
