Baiá

Oh Baiá . . . when twilight is deep in the sky . . . Baiá

Someone that I long to see, keeps haunting my memory

An' so the loneliness deep in my heart calls to you, calls to you!

( Oh Baiá . . . ) Oh Baiá . . . 

 

( I live in the memory of many dreams ago, 

when the stars were bright and you were mine alone . . .

My love for you can not die, though the oceans run dry

or heaven's call from the sky, now you're gone! ) 

 

Baiá . . . can't you hear my lonely call? . . . 

Morea . . . make my life complete again!

How I pray for the day when I'll see you smile

an' my heart will beat again!

 

Oh Baiá . . . when twilight is deep in the sky . . . Baiá

Someone that I long to see, keeps haunting my memory

An' so the loneliness deep in my heart calls to you, calls to you!

( Oh Baiá . . . ) Oh Baiá . . . ( Oh Baiá . . . )
