Tall and tan
And young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes each one
She passes goes ah
When she walks
She's like a samba that
swings so cool
And she’s so gentle
And when she passes each one
She passes goes ah
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
when she walks to the sea
She looks straight a head
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
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
when she walks to the sea
She looks straight a head
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 doesn't see
She doesn't see
She doesn't see
