One Note Samba (Samba de Uma Nota So)

This is just a little samba built upon a single note
Other notes are sure 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 and I know 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-ti-do
He will find himself with no show, better play that note you know

He will find himself with no show, better play that note you know
