Shape of a Broken Heart lyrics

Chorus:

Africa has the shape of a broken heart

And the heart of a broken land,

You fell from heaven

Straight to hell,

Now your children are missing

Verse 1:

I try to understand

Who I am

Years after years

God, it feels the same

Parted favours

Everybody's gone

Ain't no war that I know

Anybody won

Chorus:

Africa has the shape of a broken heart

And the heart of a broken land,

You fell from heaven

Straight to hell,

Now your children are missing

Verse 2:

Kiss their forehead

And hold their hands

Close their eyes

And put their name on their graves

Dust is dust

And so goes our faith

So goes our faith

Chorus:

Africa has the shape of a broken heart

And the heart of a broken land,

Fell from heaven

Straight to hell,

Now your children are missing

Verse 3:

And the wind blows,

And the children roam

Sitting on a side of a road

Watching all the boats, ooh

Chorus:

Africa has the shape of a broken heart

And the Heart of a broken land,

You fell from heaven

Straight to hell,

And now your children are missing

Outro:

Now I understand

Who I am, who I am, who I am…

Tell me how,

Tell me how,

Tell me how,

I can accept the thing

Things that I can’t change

Except the things that I can change
