Gilberto Gil – Nêga (Photograph Blues) lyrics

Nega you spent so blissfully
The last few days with me
Nega I spent so nicely too
The last few days with you (What did you do wrong Nega?) ?

Nega you spent so blissfully
The last few days with me (What did you do wrong Nega?) ?
Nega I spent so nicely too
The last few days with you (What did you do wrong Nega?) ?
(What did you do wrong Nega?) ?

When I met you, when I met you it was so fine
I didn't talk a lot to you
I only mentioned, I only mentioned your smooth hair (she talks like ?)
You made a speech about shampoo (she talks like ?)
We let our moments, we let our moments
We took many, many, many photographs downtown as we passed through (with ?)

Nega
You spent so blissfully the last few days with me (?)

Nega I spent so nicely too
The last few days with you

Nega you spent so blissfully
The last few days with me
Nega I spent so nicely too (the tropical nega)
The last few days with you

You've been going just where I've gone
All of my friends you have seen
I've been doing just what you've done, you've done , you've done , you've done
Now I can dig your cup of mu tea
We let our moments, we let our moments, we let our moments, we let our moments
Become, become, become, become, become, become, become
What they really had, what they really had, what they really had, what they really had to be
Or not to be, to be or not to be, to be or not to be

Nega you spent so blissfully
The last few days with me
Nega I spent so nicely too
The last few days with you (is it you nega)
With you, with you, with you, with you, with you

Develop our photographs
A simple dreams that will come true
Perhaps, perhaps they will make you laugh
Make you laugh, make you laugh or make you sure about we two
Perhaps they will show you nothing
They will show you nothing they will show you nothing, nothing
Nothing, but a shade of blue
They will show you nothing
Nega, they will show you nothing
Nega they will show you nothing
But a shade of blue (I love you)
My tropical woman, its you, it's you, it's you, it's you, it's you
My tropical woman, its you, nega I love you
