Autumn In Rio Lyrics

John & Mary & The Valkyries Autumn In Rio

Look to the sky in the afternoon hue
The pink and the yellows and the waves aqua blue
Oh the time was open and I knew I wouldn't be lonely
And the shine was ever falling down below

Look to the sky, the breeze is blowing new
There in the sky Corcovado view
I could put a pen to paper, write my friends I'm not lonely
I could spend my days in Rio living just for me

Autumn in Rio
Autumn in Rio
Autumn fires by the sea

Flying past my hair
Hummingbirds humming a tune I won't forget
On the beach I'm twirling and my mind is swirling Brazilian slow
And the people passing, colors flash away

Autumn in Rio
Autumn in Rio
Autumn fires by the sea

Blue is the sky on the horizon
Outstretched arms in sunset glow
And a Sunday morning, the ending of my holiday
On a tarmac shuffling back to Buffalo

Farewell, Rio
Farewell, you
Farewell to Rio
Ooh, farewell to Rio.
