Pura Vida

Jonathan Larson

We are the people
We are the people who float on the river
We are the people
We are the people who float on the river

We run up to the hill
We run down to the water
Birds laugh and the sun she smiles
And the trees they dance in the wind

Pura vida
We race against time
Pura vida
We race for pure life
Pure life

We need the people
We need the people who live on the river
We need the people
We need the people who live on the river

Find a pace, find a speed
Nowhere to stop in big water
Fish fly and the rocks play games
And the trees sing out in the wind

Pura vida
We race against time
Pura vida
We race for pure life
Pure life

Sing in harmony
Can we endure this race?
Sing in harmony
Can this race endure?
Can this race endure?

We need the people
We need the people who live in the forest
We need the people
We need the people who live in the forest

They say "Must there be finish lines?
Can't the world drum like the water?"
The rivers will dry and the birds will die
And the ghosts of the trees will cry out in the wind

Pura vida
We race against time
Pura vida
We race for pure life
Pure life
Pure life
Pure life (We are the people)
Pure life (We are the people)
Pure life (We are the people)
Pure life
