“Out of Africa”
Music by John Barry
Lyrics by David Mentzer



Verse 1 Your smile awakes me like a sunrise,
Morning light begins with this light I see in you,
Closer…lay your lips on my lips…
Touch me like you need me beyond the end of day.

Bridge 1 Somehow, I’ve discovered heaven,
finding out with each new day
as I love you, I see my love shining back…

…inside of…

Verse 2 Your eyes, they hold me in this moment
So I can know this stillness that lives inside of me,
Show me…this is how you love me…
Touch me like you need me beyond the end of day.

Bridge 2 My hand makes its way to your hand,
what it leads to can be found
at the end of every day spent curling up…

…inside of…

Verse 3 Your arms, that take me in this moment,
I always hear you smiling each time you say my name,
Tell me…of things to come tomorrow…
Touch me like you need me beyond the end of day.
