Anthonio Lyrics

Oh Anthonio, it's been nearly one year
Since our Rio nights of forever
Pictures of you and me, dancing and memories

Through the masquerade you led me by the hand
Whispered the words, "This is forever"
Said from the a silver tongue, that's where it started from

Oh Anthonio, my Anthonio, was I ever more than just a face in the crowd?
Did you even know my name? Did you ever really care?
Oh Anthonio, my Anthonio, do you ever wonder why? Or where I am now?
Do you ever feel ashamed? Do you even feel a thing?

There I was under stars, hearts made in the sand
Lying with the boy from Ipanema
Tide comes rushing in time and time again

Now that summer has gone, where did you run?
All my letters are returned to sender
For eternity, you're a part of me

Oh Anthonio, my Anthonio, was I ever more than just a face in the crowd?
Did you even know my name? Did you ever really care?
Oh Anthonio, my Anthonio, do you ever wonder why? Or where I am now?
Do you ever feel ashamed? Do you even feel a thing?

Oh Anthonio, my Anthonio, you got everything you ever wanted from me
I was just another girl, it was just another night
Oh Anthonio, my Anthonio, there is only one thing I've been trying to say
It may come as a surprise, my baby has your eyes
