Bossa Medley
Here’s a little samba, played on just one note
Other notes will come in, but the base is just one
This other one is a consequence, of what I just said
Like I’m the consequence, inevitable of you
How many people are out there
Who talk so much and say nothing
Or almost nothing
I’ve used up the whole scale
And in the end, there’s nothing left
It didn’t lead to anything
And I went back to my note, like I go back to you
I’ll sing with my note, like I like you
And those who want all the notes, D, E, F, G, A, B, C
Always end up with none, just stick to one note.
I live dreaming
Dreaming for a thousand endless hours
Time when I keep asking
If you like me
Time to talk about stars
Talk about a sea, a sky like this
Talk about the good we have
But you don’t come, don’t come
You not coming, without you life has no end
People passing by laughing at me
And I’m talking about stars, sea, love, moonlight.
