Antonio's Song
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 the L.A. sky
The blankets they give the Indians, only makes them die

(Chorus) ... (But, we)... 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

..... repeat (Chorus).....

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

..... repeat (Chorus)......
