Shape of a Broken Heart
Chorus:Africa has the shape of a broken heartAnd the heart of a broken land,
You fell from heavenStraight to hell,Now your children are missing
Verse 1:I try to understandWho I amYears after yearsGod, it feels the same
Parted favoursEverybody's goneAin't no war that I knowAnybody won
Chorus:Africa has the shape of a broken heartAnd the heart of a broken land,
You fell from heavenStraight to hell,Now your children are missing
Verse 2:Kiss their foreheadAnd hold their handsClose their eyesAnd put their name on their graves
Dust is dustAnd so goes our faithSo goes our faith
Chorus:Africa has the shape of a broken heartAnd the heart of a broken land,
Fell from heavenStraight to hell,Now your children are missing
Verse 3:And the wind blows,And the children roamSitting on a side of a roadWatching all the boats, ooh
Chorus:Africa has the shape of a broken heartAnd the Heart of a broken land,
You fell from heavenStraight to hell,And now your children are missing
