Stevie Wonder - Dark 'N' Lovely Lyrics

Stevie Wonder Lyrics

"Dark 'N' Lovely"

There is a place
On earth's motherland
Where a people
Die in bantu stands
Boy child at eight
Will face guns of hate
Woman child's fate
Is life second rate?

Just because they're dark and lovely
Just because they're dark and lovely

They do a dance
Called Mbaqana jive
Rainbow people
Dancin' to stay alive
After hours
Party hand in hand
After Shebeen
Terror strikes again

Just because they're dark and lovely
Just because they're dark and lovely
Dark and lovely
Dark and lovely
Dark and lovely

The whole planet's watchin'
And the Sun God is watchin', too
Hey there Botha
Yes, we are watchin' you
Spirits can do
Jah will stop this reign
Watch our world turn
To help those in pain

Just because they're dark and lovely
Just because they're dark and lovely
Just because they're dark and lovely
Just because they're dark and lovely

Dark and lovely
Dark and lovely
Dark and lovely, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Dark and lovely
Dark and lovely, yeah yeah
Yeah yeah, yeah yeah
Dark and lovely, yeah yeah
Dark and lovely, dark and lovely people
Dark and lovely
