Paraiso
[00:13.41] Return to a land called paraiso
[00:19.91] A place where a dying river ends
[00:26.65] No birds there fly over paraiso
[00:33.65] No space allows them to endure
[00:38.59] The smoke that screens the air
[00:42.10] The grass that's never there
[00:45.09] And if I could see a single bird, what a joy
[00:48.84] I try to write some words and create
[00:52.35] A simple song to be heard
[00:55.09] By the rest of the world
[01:01.85] I live in this land called paraiso
[01:08.34] In a house made of cardboard floors and walls
[01:15.10] I learned to be free in paraiso
[01:21.60] Free to claim anything I see
[01:26.85] Matching rags for my clothes
[01:30.34] Plastic bags for the cold
[01:33.35] And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy
[01:37.34] I never fight to take someone
[01:40.35] Else's coins and live with fear
[01:43.34] Like the rest of the boys
[01:49.35] Paraiso, help me make a stand
[01:55.85] Paraiso, take me by the hand
[02:02.85] Paraiso, make the world understand
[02:09.85] That if I could see a single bird, what a joy
[02:14.10] This tired and hungry land could expect
[02:17.60] Some truth and hope and respect
[02:20.09] From the rest of the world
[03:01.64] And if empty cans were all I have, what a joy
[03:05.65] I never fight to take someone
[03:08.89] Else's coins and live with fear
[03:11.64] Like the rest of the boys
[03:17.89] Paraiso, help me make a stand
[03:24.39] Paraiso, take me by the hand
[03:31.14] Paraiso, make the world understand
[03:37.90] That if I could see a single bird, what a joy
[03:42.65] This tired and hungry land could expect
[03:45.90] Some truth and hope and respect
[03:48.39] From the rest of the world
[03:55.03] Paraiso, help me make a stand
[04:01.02] Paraiso, take me by the hand
[04:08.02] Paraiso, make the world understand
[04:15.02] That if I could see a single bird, what a joy
[04:19.27] This tired and hungry land could expect
[04:22.77] Some truth and hope and respect
[04:25.02] From the rest of the world
[04:28.54] And if I could see a single bird, what a joy
[04:32.54] This tired and hungry land could expect
[04:35.78] Some truth and hope and respect
[04:38.53] From the rest of the world
