Sao Paulo Lyrics - Chic & C'est Chic - Chic

Where the cross flashes red to the street 

And gasoline dreams of girls in blue jeans 

He's grazing the surface of sleep 

The vultures on main street are eying you up 

Calculating the weight of your bones 

And midnight graffiti appears on your door 

So we all can sleep safe in our homes 

And the storms in the distance hold no rain 

And I feel my resistance giving way 

Shelter me from this sky, dance with me one last time 

Sau Paulo rain, Sau Paulo rain 

Do not disturb this blood red earth 

There's giants sleeping beneath 

And carnival queens on their deathbed scenes 

All go through the motions of grief 

Take another hit, let the bottle slip through 

Your fingers and break like a promise made 

The day I remember, my heart I will keep 

My voice I surrender and I will not speak to lie 

We were so alive, we were so alive 

Shelter me from this sky, dance with me one last time 

Sau Paulo rain, Sau Paulo rain 

Where the cross flashes red to the street 

And gasoline dreams of girls in blue jeans
