You Don't Have to Know the Language

歌詞

Supposing you need a vacation Brazil is the place you should be So you can't understand what they're saying Or you can't read a sign that you see But, you don't have to know the language With the moon in the sky And the girl in your arms And a look in her eyes You stop at the Copacabana With Sugar Loaf Mountain in view So the words on the menu mean nothing You can't ask a soul what to do But, you don't have to know the language With the moon in the sky And the girl in your arms And a look in her eyes When she smiles your way What more would you want anyone to say? So you sigh, just sigh You don't have to mention that Yankee phrase "Ay, ay" Perhaps when you end your vacation You bring back a bit of Brazil So you can't understand what she's saying You need an interpreter still But, you don't have to know the language With the moon in the sky And a girl in your arms And a look in her eye, eye, eye You don't have to know the language If you don't want to say goodbye With the moon in the sky And the girl in your arms It's a look in her eyes You don't have to know You don't have to know The language isn't necessary 'Cause the meaning doesn't vary If you got the charm it takes The language isn't necessary When she smiles your way What more would you want anyone to say? So you sigh, just sigh You don't have to mention that Yankee phrase "Ay, Ay" Perhaps when you end your vacation You bring back a bit of Brazil So you can't understand what she's saying You need an interpreter still But, you don't even have to know the language With the moon in the sky And the girl in your arms And a look in her eyes, ay, ay, ay, ay No, you don't have to know the language If you don't want to say goodbye
