Not really folk, but can anyone find the lyrics of One Note Samba for me

This is just a little samba
Built upon a single note
Other notes are bound to follow
But the root is still that note
Now this one is a consequence
Of the one we've just been through
As I'm bound to be the unavoidable
Consequence of you

There are so many people who can talk and talk and talk
And just say nothing, or nearly nothing
I have used up all the scale I know
And at the end I've come to nothing, or nearly nothing

So I come back to my first note
As I must come back to you
I will pour into that first note
All the love I feel for you
Anyone who wants the whole show-
Re-mi-fa-sol-la-te-do
He will find himself with no show
Better play the note you know

These are the English words by Jon Hendricks. They are not the original Portuguese ones written by N. Mendonca. Of course the tune is by Antonio Carlos Jobim.
