Corcovado/Waters Of March/Aquarela Do Brasil

Quiet nights 'n quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar

Floating on the silence that surrounds us

Quiet thoughts 'n quiet dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams

Climbing hills where lovers go to watch the world below together

We will live eternally in this mood of reverie away

from all the earthly cares around us

My world was dull each minute until I found you in it

And all at once the happiness I knew,

Became these quiet nights of loving you!

We will live eternally in this mood of reverie away

from all the earthly cares around us

My world was dull each minute until I found you in it

And all at once the happiness I knew,

Became these quiet nights of loving you!

Hmmm

A stick, a stone, it's the end of the road

It's the rest of a stump, it's a little alone

It's a sliver of glass, it is life, it's the sun

It's the night, it is death, it's a trap. it's a gun

The oak when it blooms, a fox in the brush

The knot of the wood, the song of a thrush

The wood of the wind, a cliff, a fall

A scratch, a lump, it is nothing at all

It's the wind blowing free, it's the end of the slope

It's a beam, it's a void, it's a hunch, it's a hope

And the river bank talks of the waters of March

It's the end of the strain

It's the joy in your heart

Brazil

The Brazil that I knew

Where I wandered with you

Lives in my imagination

Where the songs are passionate

And a smile has flash in it

And a kiss has art in it

For you put your heart in it

And so I dream of old Brazil

Where hearts were entertaining June

We stood beneath an amber moon

And softly murmured somehow soon

We kissed and clung together

Then tomorrow was another day

The morning found me miles away

With still a million things to say

Now when twilight dims the sky above

Recalling thrills of our love

There's one thing I'm certain of

Return I will

To old Brazil
