Africa but Not by Toto Lyrics

Verse 1
You gave me a kiss
And then you said that you would see me later
You started to walk
But then I grabbed the sleeve of my old sweater

Chorus
When I said "I love you" I really meant it
It's hard to separate these kinds of feelings
When I said "I love you" I really meant it, I really meant it
Ooo ooo

Verse 2
Your friends never thought the best of me
And asked why we're together
You told them to fuck thеmselves
Cuz you thought that would make it bеtter

And you said ooo la la la, ooo la la la, ooo
And you said ooo la la la, ooo la la la, ooo

Chorus
When I said "I love you" I really meant it
It's hard to separate these kinds of feelings
When I said "I love you" I really meant it, I really meant it
Ooo ooo
When I said "I love you" I really meant it
It's hard to separate these kinds of feelings
When I said "I love you" I really meant it, I really meant it
Ooo ooo

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
