Antonio’s song
Lyrics by Michael Franks
Antonio lives life's frevo
Antonio prays for truth.
Antonio says our friendship is a hundred proof.
The vulture that circles Rio hangs in this L..A. sky.
The blankets they give the Indians only make them die.
But sing the song forgotten for so long
And let the music flow like light into a rainbow
We know the dance we have
We still have a chance to break
these chains and flow like light into a rainbow
Antonio loves the desert.
Antonio prays for rain
Antonio knows that pleasure is the child of pain
And lost in la Califusa when most of my hope was gone
Antonio samba led me to the Amazon.
But sing the song forgotten for so long
And let the music flow like light into a rainbow
We know the dance we have
We still have a chance to break
these chains and flow like light into a rainbow
