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 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, sol, la, si, do

He will find himself with no show

Better play the note you know

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 nothin', I mean nothin'

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, sol, la, si, do

He will find himself with no show

Better play the note you know
