| Lyrics: | (A.C. Jobim, N. Gibbel, N. Mendonca)
[Recorded Januare 31, 1967, Hollywood]
In my
loneliness, when you're gone and I'm all by myself and I need your caress
I just think of you,
and the thought of you holding me near
Makes my loneliness soon disappear.
Though you're far
away, I have only to close my eyes and you are back to stay
I just close my eyes and the sadness
that missing you brings
Soon is gone and this heart of mine sings
Yes I love you so, and
that for me is all I need to know
I will wait for you till the sun falls from out of the sky,
for what else can I do
I will wait for you, meditating how sweet life will be when you come back
to me |
