Tall and tan and young and handsome

The Boy From Ipanema goes walking

And when he passes

Each girl he passes goes ah

When he walks he's like a samba

That swings so cool and sways so gently

That when he passes

Each girl he passes goes ah

Oh but I watch him so sadly

How can I tell him I love him

Yes I would give his heart gladly

But each day when he walks to the sea

He looks straight ahead not at me

Tall and tan and young and handsome

The Boy From Ipanema goes walking

And when he passes I smile

But he doesn't see

Oh but I watch him so sadly

How can I tell him I love him

Yes I would give heart gladly

But each day when he walks to the sea

He looks straight ahead not at me

Tall and tan and young and handsome

The Boy From Ipanema goes walking

And when he passes I smile

But he doesn't see

He doesn't see me he doesn ' t see
