Elias (Live In Studio) Lyrics

kasiwa i makasimba ere ndakasimba ndakasimba kana makasimba ow but your boys they lie so close to you do you dare get up and wake the two you raise your head, you beat the sun oh elias, I see you there at work in the day time do you think you could answer all the questions in the world in just one word- I think you could [CHORUS:] 'cause if you die will I get word that your gone or will I stop short and fall to the ground or will I hear it in pa*sing conversation distance is short when your hand carries what your eye found hold my hand just one more time to see if you're really going to meet me hold my hand just one more time to see if you're really going to meet me honest and manuel, well they're at school now to see what's beyond section 17 given the chance that their father's never seen and in ten years when you look back at your boys well you know they've grown way taller than the tallest sugar cane in the field [CHORUS] I see your wife she stands stooped over by the fire outside and I see your boys and when they look up 'cause she looks so proud she looks so happy you know I think they got their mother's eyes she looks so proud she looks so happy [CHORUS]
