1959 – Luiz Bonfá
The sun is hot, the nights are long
With feelings high, I kiss the sky
And ask the stars to put their sparkle in your eyes
The sun is hot, but passion’s not
I kiss the breeze and call the wind to pass my love on
I need you near, but you’re not here
And so I trust my love and passion to the skies
I dance for you, Samba de Orfeu
With rhythm blue, I dance for you
A samba beat, let two hearts meet
And let the beat, rise up high into the dark sky
I think of you, I dream of you
And now I pass my love and passion to the skies
I dance for you samba de Orfeu
With rhythm blue, I dance for you
The sun is hot, the nights are long
With feelings high, I kiss the sky
And ask the stars to put their sparkle in your eyes
Passion in your eyes
Into your eyes
Into your eyes ….
