Amazon - Michael Franks

Inside my dream

I hear the jungle parrots scream

Just me and you

Alone in our dugout canoe

We kiss

The snakes hiss

We drift on

Amazon

Each day we fight

To stay alive

Make love each night

Drunk with desire

Asleep beside the jungle fire

We are

Like jaguar

And python

Amazon

In the morning we eat roast banana

In the evening we drink maté tea

And the waterfall water’s sweet

In the green equatorial heat

Like the river we journey to the sea

Like the river we journey

Like the river we journey to the

Like the river we journey to the sea
