Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking now
When she passes each one she passes
Goes aaaa
When she walks she's just like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes
Goes aaaaa
Oh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day as she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking now
When she passes
I smile but she does not see..
Yea I want her so badly
How, how can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile,
But she doesn't see.
She ain't looking at me.
