Isabella - Antônio Carlos Jobim

Isabella Lyrics

Isabella, Isabella
I heard you crying through the walls
What's the matter, What's the matter
All the neighbors can hear it down the halls
And I didn't wanna be the first to say
Everyone around here thinks you're crazy
And I didn't wanna be the first to say you shouldn't stay
Isabella, run away
All your heroes, all your records
You play 'em loud but I don't mind the noise
Why you hidin' why you stayin
Maybe you don't think you have a choice
And I didn't wanna tell you face to face
That your mom and dad are straight up crazy
It's really hard for me to say that you shouldn't stay
Isabella, run away
Don't you be afraid
It's never too late

You're a sleeping tiger come awake
Isabella, run away
Out the window of your bedroom
Climb on down the firescape
I left some money and a ticket
For the first time in your life don't be afraid
And baby I will be the first to say
You are stronger than you know you'll find your way
Isabella, run away
Don't you be afraid
It's never too late
You're a sleeping tiger come awake
Isabella, run away
(Isabella, Isabella) x2
Don't you be afraid
It's never too late
You're a sleeping tiger come awake
Isabella, run away
