Rio - Michael Nesmith

I’m hearing the light from the window

I’m seeing the sound of the sea

My feet have come loose from their moorings

And I’m feeling quite wonderfully free

And I think I will travel to Rio

Using the music for flight

There’s nothing I know of in Rio

But it’s something to do with the night

And it’s only a whimsical notion

To fly down to Rio tonight

I probably won’t fly down to Rio

But then again I just might

There’s wings to the thought behind fancy

There’s wings to the thought behind play

And dancing to rhythm of laughter

Makes laughter the rhythm of rain

And I think I will travel to Rio

Using the music for flight

There’s nothing I know of in Rio

But it’s something to do with the night

And it’s only a whimsical notion

To fly down to Rio tonight

I probably won’t fly down to Rio

But then again I just might

I feel such a sense of well-being

The problems have come to be solved

And what I thought was proper in battle

I see now was proper for love

And I think I will travel to Rio

Using the music for flight

There’s nothing I know of in Rio

But it’s something to do with the night

And it’s only a whimsical notion

To fly down to Rio tonight

I probably won’t fly down to Rio

But then again I just might

And I think I will travel to Rio

Using the music for flight

There’s nothing I know of in Rio

But it’s something to do with the night

And it’s only a whimsical notion

To fly down to Rio tonight

I probably won’t fly down to Rio

But then again I just might
