The Barclay James Harvest - Paraiso Dos Cavalos lyrics

rate me

Met an old friend the other day

Recognised from a different age

Like a ghost in a photograph

Distant memories of the past

There was Nico and Limpopo

Ipaminandas and young Nero

All the old friends we've known so well

With all the stories they'll never tell

All it took was a photograph

To bring the memories chasing back

Of summer sunshine and cool green wine

And all the good times we'd left behind

We'd take the road down to Almansil

If I had known then we'd be there still

We left our hearts in the soft sea spray

With every Quinta Do Lago day

The wind in your hair

The sun in your face

The feeling of the power

The beauty and grace

Paraiso dos Cavalos

Paraiso dos Cavalos

Through our minds move the souls

Of our bygone years

As we ride through their ancient tears

To a place to a time where

We'd all be saved

To gallop on in the breaking waves

At Paraiso dos Cavalos

Paraiso dos Cavalos
