New Earth - Johnny Clegg

The watchman’s fire is burning but the watchman has gone

The singer knows the words but she cn’t recall the song

The passenger is waiting but the train won’t come

The telephone is ringing but to answer no-one

CHORUS:

I’ll meet you on new earth, new earth

Standing on common ground

New earth, new earth

Where the lost will be found

There’s too much double talk and double think and double dealing

Too many people wearing chains in the name of freedom

Don’t think I can wake up to this anymore

In my heart I know what I am looking for

CHORUS

You say I must wait for tomorrow

But I need it today

I don’t need youor pity or your sorrow

Just give what you say

Give me what you say

Give me what you say…

CHORUS:

I’ll meet you on new earth…

Brother get ready

Sister get ready
