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 the chance to break these chains

And flow like light into the rainbow

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 the 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

And lost in La Califusa

When most of my hope was gone

Antonio's samba led me to the Amazon

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 the chance to break these chains

And flow like light into the rainbow
