[Nelly Furtado, Caetano Veloso - Island of Wonder lyrics]

The man wrinkles his face
But, it's already worn the coffee is sour
And the shirt is torn
But the smile is bigger than the Atlantic sea
And it happens to bring out
The Atlantis in me

Island of wonder where do you come from
Is it the way the sun hit's my face
Or is it your memory which I cannot trace
I cannot trace

Eu vejo mais ao longe pessoas sem fome
Com pés sangrando na vereda Florida
And the church bell dongs a remarkable song
And I swallow the salt as I hum along
The woman she laughs as I pass her by
In a patchwork (dream) I left behind

Island of wonder where do you come from
Is it the way the sun hit's my face


Or is it your memory which I cannot trace
I cannot trace

Look at me I have so much pride
I took my shoes off I ran I did not hide
Look at me I have so much pride
I will give my dowry for the prize

Island of wonder where are you going
Nobody knows it but it is snowing
In the hearts
And minds of every kind of universe
Every kind of universe
