Winds of Change (Mandela to Mandela)

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Nona Hendryx] Sometimes the winds of change blows your way You can choose to run or stay and face the day Sometimes you don't know why you are called You stand for something, all for one and one for all Only time will show why the wind would blow your way [Chorus: Nona Hendryx] I've loved you through the years I've cried, but not your tears Of love and separation From the ones you love and your nation [Verse 2: Nona Hendryx, Peter Gabriel] Somewhere the river flows made of tears (A river made of tears) And the hands of time can't bring back the years Somewhere in your heart you drew the lines (And you drew up the lines) Never looking back, you made the highest climb Only flesh and bone, standing on your own, you led the way (You led the way) [Chorus: Nona Hendryx, Peter Gabriel] And I've loved you through the years I've cried, but not your tears Of love and separation From the ones you love and your nation And I've loved you from a distance Your pride, your strength and your resistance to be free (To be free, yeah, yeah) [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3: Nona Hendryx] Sometimes the winds of change blows your way You can choose to run or stay and face the day Only time will show why the winds will blow your way [Chorus: Nona Hendryx, Peter Gabriel] I've loved you through the years I've cried, but not your tears Of love and separation (Separation) From the ones you love and your nation And I've loved you from a distance Your pride, your strength and your resistance to be free [Outro: Nona Hendryx, Peter Gabriel] (Free, yeah, free, yeah) To be free (Free, yeah) To be free (Free, yeah) To be free (Free, yeah) To be free (Free, yeah) To, to be free (Free, yeah) Free, yeah Free, yeah Free, yeah
