João Gilberto
A certain sadness
Look out the window at that rainstorm!
I've let the wind blow up a brainstorm
And now I'm wond'ring whether weather like this gets you, too
It may go on like this for hours
Too late in fall for April showers
So while we're caught here
Got a thought or two I need to share with you
Here goes...
Darling, tell me now
Have I done wrong somehow
That you won't look at me
Needn't point it out, Can't keep my wits about
When you won't look at me
Is there something I oughta know
You're finding hard to say?
Well, there's just a trace hiding on your face
And I've learned it that way...
Just another soul that really knows my soul
And you won't look at me
Does that take the prize, how much I love those eyes
And they won't look at me...
Now the rain has gone, but something lingers on..
A Certain Sadness here now that the sky is clear
And it's also clear
Yes, it's all so clear to me now
And I can't help but fear
That Certain Sadness, here to stay
