Lyrics of Samba de Orfeu - From the Film, "Orfeu Negro" by Johnny Mathis
The sun is hot, the nights are long.
---love′s the inspiration to write this song.
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.
---love's the inspiration to write this song.
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 ...
