Cover art for Halftime lyrics by Amy Winehouse

These are the lyrics for The Girl from Ipanema. The lyrics for Half Time are:

Simple sweet guitar, humbled by the bass So when the beat kicks in Everything falls into place

And it overpowers me I can't help but dance

You can try to stop me now But you won't get the chance

Chorus: Half time Time to think it through Consider the change See it from a different view Half time Time to think it through Consider the change

Rhythm floods my heart The melody it feeds my soul The tune tears me apart And I swallow it whole

You should thank your lucky starts Cause the music is a gift And it's stronger than all else Provides me with uplift

Repeat chorus

My lyrics revealing Some natural vibe It's a kind of laid back feeling Oh just let it ride

And when Frank Sinatra Sings It's too much to take So I sing the standard shit It pacifies my ache

Chorus

Lyric Correction

Even though the booklet (and the lyrics shown for this site) say "Provides me with the bliss," she definitely says "Provides me with uplift." The "ft" is clearly audible.
