Kumbaya Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Rain falling on a lonely night
Just waiting on the sun to rise
Come morning and my tears are dry
Still praying it will be alright

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm supposed to stay strong
Heaven knows, I try

[Chorus]
They got me singing Kumbaya
But I don't know what it means
'Cause I've been to the moon and back
But I still can't find release
Now every time I close my eyes
It's so clear to see
Where you are is where I want to be
Where you are is where I want to be

[Verse 2]
Water flows to the lowest place
I'm holding on till I see your face
No colours, only shades of grey
My heart's calling for a warm embrace

[Pre-Chorus]
I'm supposed to stay strong
Heaven knows, I try

[Chorus]
They got me singing Kumbaya
But I don't know what it means
'Cause I've been to the moon and back
But I still can't find release
Now every time I close my eyes
It's so clear to see
Where you are is where I want to be
Oh, where you are is where I want to be

[Bridge]
Whatever happens, I
Want you to promise
You'll hold me close and don't let go, no, no
Whatever happens, I
Want you to promise
You'll hold me close and don't let go
(Ooh, ooh)
Oh, mama

[Chorus]
They got me singing Kumbaya
But I don't know what it means (Don't know what it means)
'Cause I've been to the moon and back
But I still can't find release (Can't find release)
Now every time I close my eyes
It's so clear to see
Where you are is where I want to be (Oh-oh)
Where you are is where I want to be (Oh)
Where you are is where I want to be
