Brazil
From the Album Well May The World Go (Smithsonian Folkways)
Your eyes are filled with laughter
Your feet are like a drum
In times of danger
You sing a song of love
Brazil
Your body moves in rhythm
You wear your gift with ease
How can I refuse you
How could I ever leave
Brazil
Standing in the shadows
I hear the angels call
Your hair flows like petals
Over a waterfall
Brazil
As dark as sunlight
Standing in the rain
Without a cloud in the sky
I’m calling out your name
Brazil
Your children are hungry
There’s wealth at your door
The more that we ask of you
The more you give us more
Brazil
