Font:      
Align:    
  • More than a distant land
  • Over a shining sea
  • More than the steaming green
  • More than the shining eyes
  • Well they tell me its only a dream in rio
  • Nothing could be as sweet as it seems
  • On this very first day down
  • They remind me son have you so soon forgotten
  • Often as not its rotten inside
  • And the mask soon slips away
  • Strange taste of a tropical fruit
  • Romantic language of the portuguese
  • Melody on a wooden flute
  • Somba floating in the summer breeze
  • Its alright you can stay asleep
  • You can close your eyes
  • You can trust the people of paradise
  • To call your keeper
  • And tender your goodbyes
  • Oh what a night wonderful one in a million
  • Frozen fire brazillian stars
  • Oh holy southern cross
  • Later on take me way downtown in a tin can;
  • Cant come down from the bandstand
  • Im never thrown for such a loss when they say
  • Quando a nossa mae acordar
  • Andareimoz au sol
  • Quando a nossa mae acordar
  • Cantara pelos sertao
  • Quando a nossa mea acordar
  • Todos os filios saberao
  • Todos os filios saberao
  • E regozilarao
  • Caught in the rays of the rising sun
  • On the run from the soldiers gun
  • Shouting out loud from the angry crowd
  • The mild the wild and the hungry child
  • Ill tell you theres more than a dream in rio
  • I was there on the very day
  • And my heart came back alive
  • There was more
  • More than the singing voices
  • More than the upturned faces
  • And more than the shining eyes
  • But its more than the shining eye
  • More than the steaming green
  • More than the hidden hills
  • More than the concrete christ
  • More than a distant land
  • Over a shining sea
  • More than a hungry child
  • More like another time
  • Born of a million years
  • More than a million years
  • Portuguese version
  • Performed by james taylor & milton nascimento
  • Additional lyrics in portuguese by fernando brant
  • From angelus
  • A terra minha me
  • O mar o meu cho
  • O verde a luz
  • Sorrindo em meu olhar
  • Pois eu digo, mesmo um sonho o rio
  • Tudo ser como deve ser
  • Quero estar com voc l
  • Eu garanto, um lugar diferente
  • A minha gente carrega uma cruz
  • Mas tem fora pra mudar
  • Strange taste of a tropical fruit
  • Romantic language of the portuguese
  • Melody on a wooden flute
  • Samba floating in the summer breeze
  • Float on
  • Its alright you can stay asleep
  • You can close your eyes
  • You can trust the people of paradise
  • To call your keeper
  • And to tender your goodbyes
  • Oh, what a night
  • Wonderful one in a million
  • Frozen fire brazilian
  • Oh, holy southern cross
  • Later on take me way downtown
  • In a tin can
  • I cant come down from the bandstand
  • Im never thrown for such a loss
  • When they say
  • O lugar de onde eu vim
  • Brota no corao
  • O lugar aonde eu nasci
  • Est no mundo e em mim
  • O lugar que a gente sonhar
  • Pode existir, existir
  • Vive em ns e viver
  • Enquanto houver cano
  • Caught in the rays of the rising sun
  • On the run from the soldiers gun
  • Shouting out loud from
  • The angry crowd
  • The mild, the wild and the hungry child
  • Ill tell you its more than
  • A dream in rio
  • I was there on the very day
  • Di demais o corao, e era mais
  • Mais do que nossas vozes
  • Mais do que o nosso rosto
  • Mais do que a luz do olhar
  • But its more than the shining eye
  • (mais do que a luz do olhar)
  • More than the steaming green
  • (mais do que o verdejar)
  • More than the hidden hills
  • (tudo o que no se viu)
  • More than the concrete christ
  • (mais do que o redentor)
  • More than a distant land
  • (mais do que a terra me)
  • Over the shining sea
  • (mais do que o cu e o mar)
  • More than a hungry child
  • (a fome a nos doer)
  • More like another time
  • (o tempo a nos curtir)
  • Born of a million years
  • (mais do que um milho)
  • More than a million years
  • (de anos pra sonhar)
