Tell Him Again Lyrics - Johnny Clegg & Savuka

Tell him again he don't care much to hear 

Mtsheleni madoda akafuni ukulalele 

I was talking to him again 

But the never understands me 

He thinks it is very strange 

That I should question what he hands me 

He can't imagine I have a feeling for what I can be 

Hey brother! Listen to the river whenever you want to remember the sea 

Hey brother! Listen to the feeling in your heart it also flows through me 

CHORUS: 

Tell him again - he don't care much to hear 

Tell him again - I need my liberty 

Tell him again - freedom's in the air 

Tell him again - take these chains off me 

Tell him again - he don't care much to hear 

Tell him again - he is just like me 

Tell him again - freedom's in the air 

Tell him again - I was born to be free 

We have all been sentenced to this life 

Everyone is a defendent 

We are all prisoners of time 

We are destined to spend it 

But we must be free to choose the way we serve the sentence 

CHORUS 

If there comes a time 

I will take this life 

And lay it down 

For my liberty 

Oh it's such a shame 

Such a tragedy 

But it's all I have 

To make you see 

All the air I breathe 

All the things I have 

They don't mean that much 

If I can't be free 

CHORUS 

So long I've been waiting 

All my heart is breaking 

Freedom long forsaken 

Together we can make it
