Paraiso Dos Cavalos Lyrics - Barclay James Harvest

Met an old friend the other day 

Recognized from a different age 

Like a ghost in a photograph 

Distant memories of the past 

There was Nico and Limpopo 

Ipaminandas and young Nero 

All the old friends we've known so well 

With all the stories they'll never tell 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

All it took was a photograph 

To bring the memories chasing back 

Of summer sunshine and cool green wine 

And all the good times we'd left behind 

We'd take the road down to Almansil 

If I had known then we'd be there still 

We left our hearts in the soft sea spray 

With every Quinta Do Lago day 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

The wind in your hair 

The sun in your face 

The feeling of the power 

The beauty and grace 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Through our minds move the souls of our bygone years 

As we ride through their ancient tears 

To a place to a time where we'd all be saved 

To gallop on in the breaking waves 

At Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos 

Paraiso dos Cavalos
