About

At one point I’d just come off the road and wasn’t feeling very inspired. I was talking to my mom on the phone. She said, “What do you mean you’re not inspired?” I said, “I guess I just don’t know what to write about anymore.” That summer my family and I had taken one of our trips to The Azores [the...

Island of Wonder Lyrics

[Verse 1: Nelly Furtado]
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

[Chorus: Nelly Furtado]
Island of wonder
Where do you come from?
Is it the way the sun hits my face
Or is it your memory which I cannot trace?
I cannot trace

[Verse 2: Caetano Veloso]
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

[Chorus: Caetano Veloso]
Island of wonder
Where do you come from?
Is it the way the sun hits my face
Or is it your memory which I cannot trace?
I cannot trace

[Bridge: Nelly Furtado]
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

[Chorus: Nelly Furtado & Caetano Veloso]
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
