Fly me to the moon
And let me play
among the stars
Let me see what
spring is like
on Jupiter and Mars
In other words,
hold my hands
In other words,
darling kiss me
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words
Fill my heart with song
And let me sing for ever more
You are all I long for
All I worship and adore
In other words please be true
In other words, I love you

Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
And be a team with me
So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me
Oh yeah, that would be so nice
I could see you and me, that would be nice
Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
To be a team with me
So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me
Oh yes, that would be so nice
Shouldn't we, you and me?
I can see it will be nice...

There's a land, Aruanda
Diamond sand, Aruanda
Silver stars on the hill top
Take me to Aruanda
Lots of fish in the stream near
Lots of dangers to dream there
Golden sun in the valley
Take me to Aruanda
There where nobody worries
There where nobody hurries
Easy life waving you're welcome
Take me there
Leave my sadness behind me
Let sweet paradise find me
Heaven waits over yonder
Take me to Aruanda

Quiet nights of quiet stars
quiet chords from my guitar
floating on the silence that surrounds us
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
and a window that looks out on Corcovado
Oh, how lovely
Quero a vida sempre assim (I want life to always be like this.)
Com vocé perto de mim (With you right next to me)
até o apagar da velha chama. ('till the love ends.)
E eu que era triste (And I who was sad)
Descrente deste mundo (Having lost faith in this world)
Ao encontra você eu conheci (I found you and then I knew)
o que é felicidade, meu amor (what happiness is, my love )
This is where I want to be
here with you so close to me
until the final flicker of life's ember.
I who was lost and lonely believing life was only
a bitter tragic joke, have found with you,
the meaning of existence, oh my love.
