Jabulani (his Story) Lyrics - Singles - Kevin Paris

Jabulani (His Story) 

My friend I must say that you have brightened my day 

Im coming from the north, the Great Zimbabwe 

See now I refuse to lose my soul 

Or my love for all its worth as this life unfolds 

And so I raise my arms to greet the new day 

Grateful for this land where I live, where I stay 

But blown astray by the winds I must obey 

I tell you that my heart is in Zimbabwe, Zimbabwe 

You see now, I start my morning with a look into the sky 

Standing ankle deep, my thoughts arriving with the tide 

With each grain of sand that sifts right through my hand 

I feel strong love for my own homeland

But wait you see, this life has treated me 

As well, most would say, quite unpleasantly 

As I pay the fee, to feed my family 

My life here is not easy as a refugee. 

Pre-chorus 

Some days Id feel so alone // Kicked around like an old, small stone 

Rolling down through the deep unknown // Its in my bones, deep in my bones 

Chorus: 

See Im a refugee, been carried from my homeland // A working man, can see it in the palms of my hands And Im holding true, just got to push on through // You know Im living this life the best way that I can 

Again I say, my heart is in Zimbabwe // Where I grew strong, I lived and I learned 

Again I say, my heart is in Zimbabwe // But one day you know I will return 

Well Ive been asked, of the things that I can give 

So I think of this life that Ive lived and Ive lived 

And Im not sold, by the cold craze for gold 

My love, my life is my child I hold 

Photos 

You see now, just one look into her eyes 

I know that she put the stars in the sky 

Made the rivers flow and the soft winds blow 

Im telling you, I love her so 

I love her so, oh I love her so 

She gives a smile as the sun dips low 

I love her so, oh I love her so 

She keeps my heart strong, wherever I go 

Ive seen it all, both the large and small 

Tough to say Ive seen my whole world fall 

So I say, I rise to convey 

Im grateful for my daughter, our health, and this day 

Pre-chorus 

I struggle still, I know // But I have hope of abundant flow // That one day I will take her home, 

Yes, well go home. Yes, well go home! 

Chorus 

But Im a refugee, been carried from my homeland 

A working man, can see it in the palms of my hands 

And Im holding true, just got to push on through 

You know Im living this life the best way that I can 

Again I say, my heart is in Zimbabwe 

Where I grew strong, I lived and I learned 

Again I say, my heart is in Zimbabwe 

But one day I will return
