All that we got to be thankful for

In this town, it all went down

Where you lead your lives before

From our small island brought right back

To these shores, to these shores, to these shores

It's alive, It's alive

Now I understand your lives

Will you take me there
GEm
You show me the city
D
I see it through your eyes
C
Will you take me there

We drive through the city

beneath the Durban Skies

On the day you made your vows

The suits you wore, and the ones you love

Were so young, were so young, oh, you were so young
