Rio Music and Lyrics by Mary Ott Copyright 2001

Verse: Last night in my dreams I flew to Paris
You see it?s springtime there and I should be there too.
I walked down my old familiar street and wondered,
Should I take the time for breakfast and to read.
I found an English paper in the café on the corner,
And ordered from a chalkboard on the wall.
The faces all around me looked peaceful yet distracted,
As they sipped on cappacinos ate their berries, tried to stall.
No one was in a hurry, to rush off to the office,
For a moment in my dreams we saw the meaning of it all.
Chorus:
Take the time to go to Rio.
Brussels would be nice
For Easter or the Fall.
Yes, I?ll meet you in Bonair for the weekend,
Did I tell you, we?re having a ball.
