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
