Sao Paulo Songtext
von Deadstring Brothers

She let go, she let me down
In pure white snow, but in the springtime
I′ll go downtown, oh, São Paulo

All those years, things that we worked for
They're done, gone, and close that door
I know there ain′t no return, yeah
Oh, São Paulo, hi

How long can you hold me?
It's getting dark as hell
How long can you keep the night
Coming on its way?

On my way down that dusty road
I found you, me alone
In that valley, I found you evil
Oh, São Paulo, hi

That old man was real yellow
He says he'll know what I come for
And he points me off to the hills
Oh, São Paulo, hi


How long can you hold me?
It′s getting dark as hell
How long can you keep the night
Coming on its way?

Feeling the wind she′s blowing cold
I got no money, I got no clothes
When on that mountain, I don't need help
Oh, São Paulo, hi

No, my yellow is growing close
Smell of death in my nose
Life′s desires, I don't love them
Oh, São Paulo, hi

How long can you hold me?
It′s getting dark as hell
How long can you keep the night
Coming on its way?

How long I can hold you now?
It's getting dark as hell
How long I can keep the night
Coming on its way?
