The Crossing (Osiyeza) [Acoustic] Video (MV)

Through all the days that eat away
At every breath that I take
Through all the nights I have lain alone
In someone else's dream, awake

All the words in truth that have been spoken
That the wind has blown away
Oh, it's only you that remains with me
Clear as the light of day

O siyeza, o siyeza
Sizofika webaba noma
O siyeza, o siyeza
Siyagudle lomhlaba
Siyawela lapheshaya
Lulezontaba ezimnyama
Lapha sobheka phansi
Konke ukhulupheka

A punch-drunk man in a downtown bar
He takes a beating without making a sound
Through swollen eyes, he sways and he smiles
'Cause no one can put him down

Inside of him a boy looks up to his father
For a sign or an approvin' eye
Oh, it's funny how those once so close and now gone
Still so affect our lives

O siyeza, o siyeza
Sizofika webaba noma
O siyeza, o siyeza
Siyagudle lomhlaba
Siyawela lapheshaya
Lulezontaba ezimnyama
Lapha sobheka phansi
Konke ukhulupheka

Oh, I'm comin', I'll be comin' home
You know the tide is turnin'
Tellin' you, the tide is turnin'
Gonna make my crossin'
Over this dark land
Gonna touch your face
Gonna lay me down
In your grace

Oh, I'm comin', I'll be comin' home
Oh, I'm comin', I'll be comin' home
Oh, I'm comin', gonna lay me down
Gonna make this crossin'
Over the dark land
Gonna touch your face
Gonna lay me down
In your green field of grace
