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 sway so gently That when she passes each one she passes goes ah Oh But I watch her so sadly How can I tell her he loves her? Yes he would give my heart gladly But each day when she walks to the sea She looks straight ahead not at him Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes I smiles But she doesn't see Oh But I watch her so sadly How can I tell her he loves her? Yes he would give my heart gladly But each day when she walks to the sea She looks straight ahead not at him Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes I smiles But she doesn't see Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes I smiles
