All of these Jobim tunes can be found on youtube.

Once again, my apologies for my poor Portuguese.

I FORGET TO BREATHE lyrics by Joel Sattler
for the tune THE RED BLOUSE by Antonio Carlos Jobim

When she bites into a cherry [cherry]
Stains her lips so red and very [very]
Lays a trap for the unwary [wary]
Passion hot fools find it scary [scary]
Tripping down the sand so merry [merry]
something out of ordinary [nary]
That’s when I forget to breathe
That’s when I forget to breathe

quando comer a cereja
seus bordos giram o vermelho
alguns são intimidados
é uma provocação
feliz funcionando
principal e coração
Eu esqueço respirar
Eu esqueço respirar

she knows
Just how to
How to break a heart
Just how to
just how to play the part
Just how to
Turn every head on the beach

Her scent
Takes over
over all my sense
Her eyes can
Break down all my defense
love Her smile
Is she forever out of reach?

no more sorrow
no tomorrow

she knows
Just how to
How to break a heart
Just how to
just how to play the part
Just how to
Turn every head on the beach

Sometimes don't know when or ever
just put one and one together
have our own piece of forever
sun comes up and I look over
At the goddess neath the cover
know that she and I are lovers
The world goes dizzy I believe
That's when I forget to breathe

Sun goes down and tide arises
night and stars full of surprises
inner soul full of surmises
her laughter scandalizes
worth a million sacrifices
when she reveals her disguises
that's when I forget to breath
that's when I forget to breath

and so
Like a child
waits for Santa Claus
to come down
the chimney to applause
my heart pauses
and then skips a whole beat

and so
like a sun
rise makes me full of awe
like a die
mond shines without a flaw
like a pil
grim overcome with belief

touched my hand and ran out laughing
Kicked the surf like tango dancing
With the waves and salt romancing
with the sea and tide advancing
take the risk of second chancing
she is some thing so entrancing
head and blood begin to seethe
That's when I forget to breathe

When she bites into a cherry
stains her lips all red and very
something out of ordinary
thought this dream was temporary
passion some men find it scary
lays a love for the unwary
That's when I forget to breathe
I I I forget to breathe

She walks by a flood of roses
overwhelming all my senses
heart stampeding my defenses
She looks back and she is waving
I wave back in disbelieving
That she wants to dance with me and
left with overpowering need
That's when I forget to breathe

She knows
Just how to break a heart
Just how to
just how to play the part
Just how to
Turn every head on the beach

Her scent
Takes over
All my sense
Her eyes can
Break down all
break down all my defense
Is she for
Is she forever out of reach?

Joel, you should had seen them in Copacabana, Leblon, Ipanema or Barra de Tijuca with the wind rising those "corcovados" (LOL)
