Stephen Stills - Amazonia lyrics

rate me

Amazonia

Amazonia

From the heart of Amazonia

Comes the very air we breathe

But the people there are poor

Can't see the forest for the trees

In the time it takes to sing this song

Another acre's gone

Gotta save the Amazonia

Before all of it is gone

Amazonia

Amazonia

With so many people hungry

All those children there to feed

No use blaming the Sinterras

They've got families

Finding other ways to prosper

Realize the damage done

Educate them with an answer

And take care of everyone

In Amazonia

Amazonia

Amazonia

Simple answers are much harder

To accomplish than the rest

And there's always someone getting hurt

When you have to do what's best

So put your imagination

And your shoulder to the task

Save the rain forest from ourselves

There's no more we can ask

Of Amazonia

Amazonia
