Emotional Allegiance (Stand By Me) Lyrics


I don't want to be a tourist in your heart
I don't want to visit someone else's ruins
Don't want a day trip to the feelings in the dark
Don't want a quick-fix honeymoonWe need emotional allegiance
Devotional love
A living promise
Like in the story of RamRaghupati Raghava Raja Ram
Patite Pavana Sita Ram
Stand by me, feel the sun
Emotional allegiance, divine loveThere's a change in the weather and a hole in the sky
Snow in the summer and the rivers run dry
Who will guard your fragile dreams of rain
When your heart is tired of day trippers
And nobody staysWe need emotional allegiance
Devotional love
A living promise
Like in the story of RamRaghupati Raghava Raja Ram
Patite Pavana Sita Ram

Stand by me, feel the sun
Emotional allegiance, divine love

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Johnny Clegg's second crossover band Savuka takes its name from the Zulu word for "We have risen". Savuka, like Clegg's first band Juluka before it, mixes African music with Celtic folk music and international rock sounds. They recorded four albums: Third World Child (1987), Shadow Man (1988), Cruel, Crazy, Beautiful World (1989), Heat, Dust & Dreams (1993). The last album was nominated for a US Grammy Award for the best world music album in 1993.

In the United States songs performed by Johnny Clegg have appeared in three well-known feature films: "Scatterlings of Africa" in Rain Main, "Dela" in George of the Jungle, and "Life Is a Magic Thing" in the animated film Ferngully.
