"Only A Dream In Rio" lyrics |
 More than a distant
Over a shining sea
More than the steaming green
More than the shining eyes
Well they tell me itґs only a drea in Rio
Nothing could be as sweet as it seems
On this very first day down
They remind me
Son have you so soon forgotten
Often as not itґs rotten inside
And the mask soon slips away
Strange taste of a tropical fruit
Romantic language of the portugese
Melody on a wooden flute
Samba floating in the summer breeze
Take it easy
Itґs alright you can stay asleep
You can close your eyes
You can trust the people of paradise
To call your keeper
And tender your goodbyes
Oh what a night
Wonderful one in a million
Frozen fire brazilian stars
Oh holy southern cross
Later on
Take me way downtown in a tincan
I cant come down from the bandstand
Iґm never thrown for souch a loss
When they say
Quando a nossa mãe acorda
Andaremos ao sol
Quando a nossa mãe acorda
Cantará pelo sertão
Quando a nossa mãe acorda
Todos os filhos saberão
Todos os filhos saberão
E regozijarão
Caught in the rays of the rising sun
On the run from the soldiers gun
Shouting out loud from the angry crowd
The mild the wild and the hungry child
Iґll tell you
Itґs more than a dream in Rio
I was there on the very day
And my heart came back alive
There was more
More than the singing voices
More than the upturned faces
And more than the shining eyes
But itґs more than the shining eye
More than the steaming green
More than the hidden hills
More than the concrete christ
More than a distant land
Over a shining sea
More than the hungry child
More like another time
Born of a million years
More than a million years
