I don’t speak Portuguese
But this place has got a thing for me
I’m going to João’s place
To give in and and alleviate
This burning in my heart
Ropes tied so tight
And the leather, my delight
I’m a sucker for an accent
It’s my fetish, given no consent
This exotic way, this land
He said “I’m not just some fantasy for you
There are other eyes, those not blue.”
You know, Vivo sonhando
This world is not what I thought
Growing up on the farm
White lies and a whip is all I’ve got
Break the chain
It’s time for a change
Remember their names
Remember their names
Thrown out on the street
You become who you meet
Break the chain
It’s time for a change
Remember their names
Remember their names
It’s luck of the draw
To be here at all
Break the chain
It’s time for a change
Remember their names
Remember their names
There’s no better or worse
Just the recognition of our postmodern condition
See the sun set on your horizon
And know it’s daylight somewhere else
It’s been years since I’ve seen him
In that walkup
I hope João’s forgotten about me and my mistakes
It’s been a work in progress
Since I left the farm
I’d ask for forgiveness but we’re not done, we never are
This will always be
The world is not what I thought
Growing up on the farm
White lies and whip is all I’ve got
