Lyrics
This is just a little samba, built upon a single note
Other notes are bound to follow but the root is still that note
Now this new one is the consequence of the one we've just been through
As I'm bound to be the unavoidable consequence of you
There's so many people who can talk, and talk, and talk
And just say nothing or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale I know
And at the end I've come to nothing or nearly nothing
So I come back to my first note as I must come back to you
I will pour into that one note, all the love I feel for you
Anyone who wants the whole show, re-mi-fa-so-la-si-do
He will find himself with no show, better play the note you know
There's so many people who can talk and talk, and talk
And just say nothing or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale I know
And at the end I've come to nothing, I mean nothing
So I come back to my first note, as I must come back to you
I will pour into that one note all the love I feel for you
Anyone who wants the whole show, re-mi-fa-so-la-si-do
He will find himself with no show, better play the note you know
Writer(s): Antonio Carlos Brasileiro De Almeida Jobim, Newton Ferreira De Mendonca
