So Nice
Sergio Mendes/Wanda Sá Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Someone to hold me tight, that would be very nice
Someone to love me right, that would be very nice
Someone to understand each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand, to be a team with me

So nice, life would be so nice
If one day, I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me

Someone to cling to me, stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me some little samba song
Someone to take my heart then give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to give love a start with me

Oh yes
That would be so nice, nice
Should it be you and me
I could see it could be nice

Someone to cling to me, stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me some little samba song
Someone to take my heart then give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to give love a start with me

Oh yes
That would be so nice, nice




Should it be you and me
I could see it could be nice

Esta cancion me traie a un punto de la vida mia de mi juventud..1965 yo todavia tengo el disco co Sergio en el medio de los otros dos companeros, Wanda no estaba en el cover del disco. Great Tune from a time gone by. Thank you for the post.

Welcome to DHL

@mauricioduron3193

This was the re-issue, of course. Still as spellbinding, though.

@shariallison5579

so nice ....pity girl singers now days can't sing like this ..I so hate the way nearly all have a same fake horrid sound

@cliftonboyz1959

That horrid sound are their mediocre vocal chords being squeezed through a tube of toothpaste..😂

@shariallison5579

@CarolynK26 thank you for having such good taste too...thanks for the information about Lani Hall and Sergio Mendez and Brazil 66...I think I had most of their albums up to Brazil 77 and then they changed .
