I Never Was To Africa - Ferron

    If you're ever sitting where the rushes grow
    Or you catch a red rose bloom
    Or if you're ever standing where a raging river flows
    And you feel yourself a lonesome tune
    That's right it's me again
    Right by your side
    And you can yell out through the wind "She's mine"
    And 'tho the wind might wail it will not cry
    It will say "She always was and so am I"

    I never was to Africa 'tho it comes up in my dreams
    And we never got our hearts in tune
    If time is what it seems
    But maybe when you're with someone who you understand
    And you tell them "I love you"
    Well maybe I'll be with someone and I'll take their hand
    And I'll say "I love you too"

    And if I'm ever where the rushes grow
    Or I catch a red rose bloom
    Or if I'm ever standing where a raging river flows
    And I feel myself a lonesome tune
    I'll know it's you again right by my side
    And I'll yell out through the wind "She's mine"
    And while the wind might wail it will not cry
    It will say "She always was and so am I".
