Durban Skies

Lyrics

[Intro] All that I've got to be thankful for All that I've got to be thankful for In the heat, try to love these streets [Verse 1] In this town, it all went down Our chromosomes in sepia tones In my mind, in my mind Where you led your lives before From our small island, brought right back To these shores, to these shores, to these shores [Chorus] It's alive, it's alive when I see it through your eyes It's alive, it's alive, now I understand your lives When you take me there You show me the city, I see it through your eyes When you take me there We drive through the city beneath the Durban skies [Post-Chorus] Oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh All that I've got to be thankful for [Verse 2] On the day, you made your vows The heavens opened, rain poured down It poured down, down, down Grey and brown, the seventies The suits you wore and the ones you loved Were so young, were so young, God, you were so young [Chorus] It's alive, it's alive when I see it through your eyes It's alive, it's alive, now I understand your lives When you take me there You show me the city, I see it through your eyes When you take me there We drive through the city beneath the Durban skies [Bridge] Oh-oh oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh oh-oh, oh Oh-oh-oh oh-oh oh, oh-oh-oh-oh oh-oh, oh All that I've got to be thankful for Oh, all that I've got to be thankful for All that I've got to be thankful for [Chorus] It's alive, it's alive, when I see it through your eyes It's alive, it's alive, now I understand your lives When you take me there You show me the city, I see it through your eyes When you take me there We drive through the city beneath the Durban skies [Outro] When you take me there, there When you take me there, there When you take me there, It's alive, it's alive When you take me there, It's alive, it's alive
