If someone tells you the samba
Is merely a beat
Or is a song that you sing
For a dance in the street
Don't even bother to listen
If they say it's so
I'd tell you right now
That the answer is no
If someone tells you the samba
Was born in the hills
That it came down just to
Bring you a couple of thrills
Don't even bother to listen
To people who cares
If they say it's love
Then the answer is yes
My heart was empty
Now it's filled with music
The kind of music
Only love would know
And so
If someone tells you the samba
Was bright as the star
That it can take you and make you
Much more than you are
Then you can bother to listen
For lovers all know
The answer to the samba is love
My heart was empty
Now it's filled with music
The kind of music
Only love would know
And so
If someone tells you the samba
Was bright as the star
That it can take you and make you
Much more than you are
Then you can bother to listen
For lovers all know
The answer to the samba is love
