the heart its a wild beast...

(Parati, Brasil)

 

the heart, it is a wild beast
that no one can tame,
you can't choose
who you fall in love with,
so there's no need
for blame.

in every winding road
he still sees her smile,
and in
every map he reads
her name.

outside he learns
to dance in fire,
inside burns an
undying flame.

and only she can make
this blind artist see:
he has no use for
riches, power or fame.

and when all else
is gone,
government's fall
& cities crumble...

his love
for her,
it will still remain.
