Like a simple question looking for an answer Now I am a whae listening to some inner call Swimming blindly to throw myself upon your shores But what if I don't find you when I have landed Would you leave me here to die on your shores stranded? I think I know why the dog howls at the moon. I think I know why the dog howls at the moon.
I say: "Dela! Dela: Ngiyadela (Content, content I am content) When I am with you! Dela! Sondela mama (Closer, closer, come closer mama) I burn for you !"
CHORUS I've been waiting for you all my life - waiting for a miracle I've been waiting day and night - waiting for redemption I burn for you
A blind bird sings inside the cage that is my heart And the image of your face comes to me when I'm alone in the dark If I could give a shape to this ache that I have for you If I could find the voice that says the words that capture I think I know, I think I know I think I know why the dog howls at the moon I say : "Dela! Dela ! Ngiyadela (Content, content !i am content) When I am with you Dela ! Sondela mama (Closer, closer, come closer mama) I burn for you"
