There are many versions of this song on youtube,
but my interpretation is based on one done
at a concert by the late Elis Regina,
which is one of the extraordinary performances I've ever seen:

Só tinha de ser com você :

The pure love she radiates in this piece is incredible, unbelievable, astounding!

If you ever wondered about the derivation
of the word "Star" to describe such people,
here it is: because she literally SHINES !

SÓ TINHA DE SER COM VOCÊ by Antonio Carlos Jobim, new words by Joel Sattler

 

Original lyrics in Portuguese by Aloysio de Oliveira

 

Hey!

So they say

Where there’s love

There’s a way

Some say no

Can’t be so

Come what may

 

Hey!

So they say

Where’s there’s love

Come what may

Some say no

Can’t be so but

there’s a way

 

 

Hey!

Did you know today was the day?

Did you know just what you would say?

Did you? What miracle occurs

With that combination of words?

The mountain we climbed to the top

It kept going up up and up

If there is a blue beyond the blue

Then there is a sky inside me too

Okay so then let’s!

 

Hey!

if you could just die of a love then

Then this is the perfect moment 

Jump off the edge don’t think twice

Who knew a paradise was so nice

Never guessed what we two could do

To make one out of us two

I never guessed just what I feel for you

 

Hey!

if you could just die of a love then

Then this is the perfect moment 

Jump off the edge don’t think twice

Who knew a paradise was so nice

Never guessed what we two could do

To make one out of us two

I never guessed just what I feel for you

 

If there is a way to die of love

This would be the perfect moment of

 

If possible to die of love

This would be the perfect moment of

 

If there is a way to die of love

This would be the perfect moment of

É,

só eu sei
Quanto amor

eu guardei
Sem saber

que era só

pra você


É, só tinha de ser com você
Havia de ser pra você
Senão era mais uma dor
Senão não seria o amor
Aquele que o mundo não vê
Amor que chegou para dar
O que ninguém deu pra você
Amor que chegou para dar
O que ninguém due

 

É, você que é feito de azul
Me deixa morar neste azul
Me deixa encontrar minha paz
Você que é bonito demais
Se ao menos pudesse saber
Que eu sempre fui só de você
Você sempre foi só de mim
Que eu sempre fui só de você

 

É, você que é feito de azul
Me deixa morar neste azul
Me deixa encontrar minha paz
Você que é bonito demais
Se ao menos pudesse saber
Que eu sempre fui só de você
Você sempre foi só de mim
Que eu sempre fui só de você

 

Que eu sempre fui só de você
Você sempre foi só de mim
Que eu sempre fui só de você
Você sempre foi só de mim

Etc.

And believe it or not, you, Joel, are most graciously refreshing my Portuguese that was withering inside my head for not getting practice!
