Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from ipanema goes walking
And when she passes each one she passes goes
When she walks she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes each one she passes goes
But I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I loves 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 she doesn't see
Oh she doesn't see
All right
But I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I loves her
Yes oh yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead not at he
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from ipanema goes walking
And when she passes I smile she doesn't see
She doesn't see
Well she never sees him
