That song you used to like

That record you used to play

I don't listen to it anymore

Or so i thought

That summer night

When you held me in your arms

That is when

I fell in love

In love with you



My bossa nova

When i remember it

I feel like crying

To a sweet melody

My bossa nova

Sounds so quiet

If i close my eyes

I can feel that day again



At that time i thought

That record was boring

And i wanted you to

Have eyes only for me



My bossa nova

It's time to remember it

The pandeiro(*) sounds

Like a moonlit night

My bossa nova

And now i feel i can

Leave it to the rhythm

And dance all by myself



Those beautiful memories

And that worn-out record

I had long decided

I would never bring

Them out again



But my bossa nova

I had known for a long time

It's beautiful but

It's a triste song

My bossa nova

Only now quietly

As i try to hum it

This love song

My bossa nova

This love song
