REACH OUT
(SONG FOR MARGARET )

Like a hunger eats the flesh
The warmth of a mother's breast
We need someone, somewhere, somehow
Like the earth needs the sun
The little ants meet one-to-one
There's a need in me, every minute, every hour
Who'll be there when strength has lost its power
When the loneliness starts to devour
In my dying state, in all my ill fate
Who'll be there, will you be there
When I...

CHORUS
(Reach out) No feelings left to hide
(Reach out) The pain lies deep inside
Take me to summer's high
I can't let my spirit die
I walk where vultures fly
And I've got no more tears to cry

I'm at war with myself
Seeking solace in my mind
Is there some way out, somewhere, somehow
To the world I seem complete
But the fear runs strong and deep
If you could see me now, stripped bare by pain and sorrow
Now I long to find comfort in your shade
I can't fix the past mistakes I've made
But there'll come a time when I won't be fine
Who'll be there, will you be there
When I...

CHORUS
(Reach out) No feelings left to hide
(Reach out) The pain lies deep inside
Take me to summer's high
Please let my spirit die
I lay where vultures fly
And I've got no more tears to cry

Haunted by those piercing cries
Oh yeah, I need to let go of my mind
There's so much pain in being alive
Life's beauty turns me off all the time

I think my time has finally come
I won't make it till the setting of the sun
But before I go I know you'd like to know
That I really tried, God knows I tried to

CHORUS
(Reach out) no feelings left to hide
(Reach out) Death becomes my tortured mind
Take me to paradise
Away from those prying eyes
I walk where angels fly
And I have made forever mine

Robala ka khotso moya waka [May your soul rest in peace]
Thula mphefumlo wam [Be still my soul]
