I know what they're saying is hard to see
But it was a friend of mine that made it known
That what you’re wanting most is to see me hanging around
I know you threw it in so casually
But things aren't working out with your new love
And what you’re wanting most is to see me hanging around
And so, this samba is for you, o meu amor
This samba is for you
Cos I gave you peace
Took away your fear
And I gave you dreams
Took away your tears
Trying to keep you near
I know that what they're saying is hard to see
But it was a friend of mine that made it known
That what you’re wanting most is to see me hanging around
I know you threw it in so casually
But things aren't working out with your new love
And what you’re wanting most is to see me hanging around
And so, this samba is for you, o meu amor
This samba is for you
Cos I gave you peace
Took away your fear
And I gave you dreams
Took away your tears
Trying to keep you near
And so, this samba is for you, o meu amor
This samba is for you
Cos you took my peace
And you gave me fear
And you took my dreams
And you gave me tears
Now this game is clear
