Lyrics Laia Ladaia (Reza) - Live - Marvin Gaye

Last summer we had the pleasure of being in Brazil
Before we begin, first, there must be lights
Music, and of course, girls
Now, in Brazil, when the natives wanted something very badly
They wanted to pray in Latin for it
But since they could not speak it, they made up words that had a Latin sound
They sounded something like this

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

I′ve been searching for love
I've been longing for love
Oh, oh, where is she?
Since the love I offered hasn′t found another
Then I know what I'd better do
Oh yes, I'll wait for you
Or I may just spend my whole life all alone

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

If it′s not enough, my prayer
Send me someone to care

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

Please, my friend, hear my prayer
Oh, tell me someone to care

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria
Laia, ladaia, sabatana, Ave Maria

I′m still searching for love
I'm still longing for love
Oh, oh, where is she?
Since the love I offered hasn′t found another
Then I know what I'd better do
Oh yes, oh yes, I′ll wait for you
Oh, I may spend my whole life all alone
All alone, searching for love
Longing for love
I need your love
Ah, I'm searching, searching, searching, ah
