One Note Samba

(album: Kinda Latin - 1966)

In Brazil, they have a samba
With a simple melody
Just a single note is sounded
And repeated constantly

Well my love is like that samba
With that simple melody
Just a single, steady feeling
That's repeated constantly

That's the way my love is like
The sun that shines above
Is ever burning, a burning fire
I will leave you never
For I know that you'll forever be
Returning my great desire

So my single note's a symbol
Of the love I have for you
And my single note's repeated
For my love is constant, too

Yes, if ever I should leave you
I would cry a while and then
I'd return to you, my true love
And my single note again

In Brazil, they have a samba
With a simple melody
Just a single note is sounded
And repeated constantly

Well my love is like that samba
With that simple melody
Just a single, steady feeling
That's repeated constantly
Yeah

My love is like that samba
Mmm, just a single, steady feeling
That's the way my love is like
The sun that shines above
Is ever burning, a burning fire
I will leave you never
For I know that you'll forever be
Returning my great desire

So my single note's a symbol
Of the love I have for you
And my single note's repeated
For my love is constant, too

Yes, if ever I should leave you
I would cry a while and then
I'd return to you, my true love
And my single note again

I'd return to you, my true love
And my single note again
