(A.C. Jobim)

[Recorded Febrary 13, 1969, Hollywod]



Sad is to live in solitude far from your tranquil altitude

Sad is to know that no one ever can live on a dream

That never can be, will never be dreamer awake, wake up and see.

Your beauty is an aeroplane so high my heart can't bear the strain

A heart that stops when you pass by, only to cause me pain

Sad is to live in solitude
