I nearly disappeared into the mouth of a crocodile
I nearly touched the rain deep in the heaven on high
I could have been a sad piece of news on the radio
But you remembered me 'cause you know I'm not ready to go
Oh halala, I'm home, looks like I made it, oh halalo
Oh halala, oh halala, ngasinda, oh halalo

Chorus
I'm too early for the sky
Wenkunkulu wami wangisindisa mina
(oh my lord, you spared me)

Somewhere some grey computer nearly closed my file
This could have been the last time I ever saw you smile
The darkest night nearly swallowed up my eyes
But you remembered me 'cause I'm not ready for the sky
Oh halala, I'm home, looks like I made it, oh halalo
Oh halala, oh halala, ngasinda, oh halalo

Chorus
