The winner - first one that jumped into my head.
Really fond memory of this track. A rave called "Slippery When Wet" in Curtain Road. Danny Rampling the closing DJ on and they moved those of us left at 5am into a smaller room - he played this as the last track of the night/morning. Immense.
Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal

Milton Nascimento and Fernando Brant wrote this song about a train that ran from Bahia, a small beach on the Brazilian Atlantic coast to Minas Gerais (or just "Minas"), a very productive but landlockced state in the heart of the Brazilian territory. Minas Gerais is also the birthplace of both Milton Nascimento and Brant. The railroad and its locomotives (generally known in Brazil as Maria Fumaça, "Smokey Mary") were deactivated in 1966, so it seems the song is a nostalgic account of a lost time, a simpler time, as this seems to be the theme of many songs by Nascimento and Brant. I got this info from a comment about this song.
When you reach the place beyond thoughts, the only thing you'll find is love and the only purpose of life becomes to ease the suffering of others.
