Lyrics
Dear Brazil, I am writing from the heart
If you will, this is tearing me apart
I won?t get too sentimental
But you?ve got to hear my side
It was just last night that I broke down and cried and cried
Now Brazil, I approach you as a friend
Why, Brazil, must all good things have to end?
He was in my arms last Friday
And we kissed till we were sore
Then he caught that plane and left me for your shore
His Brazil, he would dream about the sights
You?re his thrill, with your golden coast and Rio de Janeiro nights
Oh Brazil, now I know we haven?t met
But Brazil, don?t do something you?ll regret
You?ve seduced him with your samba
To your land of make believe
You?re just using him because he?s so naive
His Brazil, in his travel magazines
Loves you still, though you?re just a fling of one night picture postcard scenes
So Brazil, won?t you send him back to me?
?Cause Brazil, you?re no place for him to be
He?s a crazy kid from Brooklyn
You speak only Portuguese
Won?t you leave my man alone? I?m on my knees, begging please
Please Brazil
Please Brazil
Please Brazil
