Antonio's Song - Michael Franks
Antonio lives life's fervor 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 the rainbow We know the dance we have We still have a chance to break these chains And flow like light into the rainbow
Antonio loves the desert Antonio prays for rain Antonio knows that pleasure is the child of pain Lost in La Califusa When most of my hope was gone Antonio's samba led me to the Amazon
