[male
vocals] (
Chale,
the
wind
is
biting)
Oh,
the
distance
is
a
fire,
burning
deep
within
my
soul
I
sit
here
looking
out
at
gray
skies
and
the
snow
Europe’
s
wind
is
freezing
but
my
heart
has
nowhere
to
go
I
came
here
for
the
greener
pastures,
searching
for
a
way
But
every
night
I
wake
up
wishing
for
an
Accra
day
My
clothes
are
layered
thick
but
I
am
feeling
so
exposed
The
door
to
my
true
happiness
is
firmly
locked
and
closed
I
miss
the
heat
of
your
skin,
the
rhythm
of
your
grace
I’
m
lost
inside
this
winter,
searching
for
your
face
I
am
burning,
burning
in
the
cold,
oh
my
darling
My
body
feels
the
frost
but
my
heart
is
longing
for
you
Even
in
the
freezing
rain,
it
is
only
you
I’
m
calling
Every
day
I
fight
the
hunger,
stayin’
faithful,
staying
true
Chale,
this
distance
is
a
heavy
weight
I
hold
I
am
burning,
burning
in
the
cold
There
are
beautiful
faces
passing
by
me
in
the
street
But
they
don’
t
have
the
gentle
smile
that
makes
my
life
complete
I
turn
my
head
away
because
I
swore
an
oath
to
you
My
soul
is
starving
for
the
touch
that
only
you
can
do
It’
s
a
battle
in
the
silence,
an
ache
that
won’
t
subside
I’
m
fighting
off
the
lonely
ghosts
that
linger
by
my
side
Oyiwa,
the
pain
is
real,
it’
s
deeper
than
the
skin
When
will
the
day
arrive
for
me
to
finally
let
you
in?
I
am
burning,
burning
in
the
cold,
oh
my
darling
My
body
feels
the
frost
but
my
heart
is
longing
for
you
Even
in
the
freezing
rain,
it
is
only
you
I’
m
calling
Every
day
I
fight
the
hunger,
stayin’
faithful,
staying
true
Chale,
this
distance
is
a
heavy
weight
I
hold
I
am
burning,
burning
in
the
cold
Can
you
hear
me
crying
out
across
the
deep
blue
sea?
I’
m
praying
for
a
rescue,
for
you
to
come
and
set
me
free
Wonim?
The
nights
are
longer
than
the
day
can
ever
be
I
am
dying
for
the
comfort
of
your
love,
my
heart’
s
decree
I
count
the
coins
and
count
the
days
until
I’
m
coming
home
No
matter
where
I
wander,
I
don’
t
want
to
be
alone
My
spirit’
s
tired
of
the
chill,
my
spirit’
s
tired
of
the
rain
I
just
want
your
arms
around
me
to
wash
away
this
pain
I’
m
holding
on
to
memories,
the
kente
and
the
gold
Keeping
up
the
fire
while
I’
m
burning
in
the
cold
I
am
burning,
burning
in
the
cold,
oh
my
darling
My
body
feels
the
frost
but
my
heart
is
longing
for
you
Even
in
the
freezing
rain,
it
is
only
you
I’
m
calling
Every
day
I
fight
the
hunger,
stayin’
faithful,
staying
true
Chale,
this
distance
is
a
heavy
weight
I
hold
I
am
burning,
burning
in
the
cold
I
am
burning,
yeah,
I
am
burning
Just
waiting
for
the
sun
to
rise
in
Accra
My
love,
keep
me
warm,
please
rescue
me
Burning
in
the
cold,
ah
ah,
just
you
and
me.
