Brazasia
Carol Welsman Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A storm, a cool breeze turns into a warm embrace
Just beyond the horizon you're waiting Brazasia
For me clouds will clear revealing a magic place
Slice of grey, shade of blue fragrant flowers you do
You're the way to my heart, the rhythm is silver-lace
Light a candle Brazasia and guide me, invite me
In love with the echo of your laughter
I'll be happy ever after
Greeting the morning with the sun,
On the adventure we've begun.
A land where a day lasts forever
A land where the rain lasts an hour
Where emotions rule the weather
And the moonlight has the power. Make it ours.
Mix the East with the South with the sound of Brazasia
You find something sweet a taste that will tantalize.
There's a time and a season to come to Brazasia
A dream grows so strong, you're ready for paradise.
(Instrumental)
In love with the echo of your laughter
I'll be happy ever after
Greeting the morning with the sun,
On the adventure we've begun.
A land where a day lasts forever
A land where the rain lasts an hour
Where emotions rule the weather
And the moonlight has the power. Make it ours.
Ba da day, ya da day, ya daaahhh.
Mix the East with the South with the sound of Brazasia
You find something sweet a taste that will tantalize.
There's a time and a season to come to Brazasia
A dream grows so strong, you're ready for paradise.
La lie ya, la lie ya, la lie ya, la lie ya, la lie ya, la lie ya, ba da da, ba day ya da (repeat)
"Brazasia" is a song by Carol Welsman about a mystical place that is a combination of Brazil and Asia, and the feeling of being in love. The lyrics describe the singer's anticipation and excitement before seeing their love interest, whom they compare to the enchanting Brazasia. They feel a storm of emotions within themselves that eventually turns into a warm embrace. The singer sees Brazasia as a magical place where grey is sliced with blue, fragrant flowers grow, and where they feel their way to their lover's heart. Brazasia is portrayed as a place where happiness reigns, and the sun rises with the promise of adventure, along with the power of the moon and rain.
The singer's love for their partner is further illustrated through the lines "In love with the echo of your laughter I'll be happy ever after." The lyrics suggest that the singer's love interest is the source of their happiness, and they feel content just basking in the presence of their love. The song then reinforces the idea that Brazasia is a place that everyone should visit; it creates a paradise-like feeling, and portrays it as "a dream that grows so strong, you're ready for paradise.”
