Lyrics
The man wrinkles his face
But it's already worn
The coffee is sour
And the shirt is torn
But the smile is bigger than the Atlantic sea
It happens to bring out the Atlantis in me
Island of wonder
Where do you come from?
Is it the way the sun hits my face
Or is it your memory which I cannot trace, I cannot trace
Eu vejo mais ao longe
Pessoas sem fome
Com os pés sangrando
Na vereda Florida
And the church bell dongs
A remarkable song
And I swallow the salt
As I hum along
The woman, she laughs as I pass her by
In a patchwork dream I left behind
Island of wonder
Where do you come from?
Is it the way the sun hits my face
Or is it your memory which I cannot trace, I cannot trace
Look at me, I have so much pride
I took my shoes off, I ran, I did not hide
And look at me, I have so much pride
I'll give my dowry for the prize
Island of wonder
Where are you going?
Nobody knows it but it is snowing
In the hearts and minds of every kind of universe, universe, universe
Island of wonder
Where are you going?
Nobody knows it but it is snowing
In the hearts and minds of every kind of universe, universe, universe
