Antonio Carlos Jobim

Why are you here?

Couldn't you tell him?

Were you afraid he'd hear?

You should have been thankful to be alone

You took off your shoes

Said anything further would be bad news

Cos you'd already started to disappear

And he couldn't complain

Just looked at yourlyric and crossed over to play

A record of quiet instrumentals

And I like what you wrote

This is a record full of sour notes

You should've been thankful to be alone

And I like what you wrote

But don't say you mean it when you know you don't

You should have been thankful to be alone, you know

You should have been thankful to be alone, you know

You should have been thankful to be alone
