"Goodbye sadness" ("Adeus tristeza")


"Goodbye Sadness" ( Adeus Tristeza)
(Astrud Gilberto)
La la la- la...

Tristeza, the deep sadness the heart feels
Let it leave mine forever
Let my lips sing again
From this day on my days are days of sun and roses
My life's a carnival of song
From this day on my dear the door to sorrow closes
This day when you came along

La la la- la...
[musical interlude]
La la la- la...

Tristeza, the deep sadness the heart feels
Let it leave mine forever
Let my lips sing again
From this day on my days are days of sun and roses
My life's a carnival of song
From this day on my dear the door to sorrow closes
This day when you came along

La la la- la...
(Continue to fade)...

* Do you feel sad? Aren't you happy in your town? Then listen to the music and watch the video.
This song is a very beautiful example of the Bossa Nova or Brazilian Jazz. We are learning lots of things about Brazil in our classroom. Well, this is another one.
*Dedicated to Robson, our Brazilian boy.
