Samba De Uma Nota Só (One Note Samba)

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 came 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 sol la si do

He will find himself with no show

Better play the note you know
