How Insensitive (Insensatez)

(by Antonio Carlos Jobim. English translation by Norman Gimbel)

How insensitive
I must have seemed
When she told me that she loved me
How unmoved and cold
I must have seemed
When she told me so sincerely
Why she must have asked
Did I just turn and stare in icy silence
What was I to say
What can you say when a love affair is over

Now she’s gone away
And I’m alone with the memory of her last look
Vague and drawn and sad
I see it still
All her heartbreak in that last look
How she must have asked
Could I just turn and stare in icy silence
What was I to do
What can one do when a love affair is over...

Sing again, with your dear voice revealing a tone of some world far from ours, Where music and moonlight and feeling are one. (Percy Bysshe Shelley)
