I want a house in the countryside
I want a house in the countryside
Where I can get the size of the peace
And just make sure
The limits of the body and nothing else
I want sheep and goats
Grazing solemn in my garden
I want the silence of tired languages
I want to hope glasses
And my son legal cuca
I want to plant and harvest by hand
The salt and pepper
I want a house in the countryside
The ideal size, cob wall and thatch
Where I can plant my friends
My records and books and nothing else
