Girl From Ipanema (Garota de Ipanema)
[Letra de "Girl From Ipanema (Garota de Ipanema)"]
[Verso]
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes (A-a-ah)
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 (A-a-ah)
Ah, 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 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 just doesn't see
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes (A-a-ah)
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 (A-a-ah)
Ah, 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 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 just doesn't see
No, she doesn't see
She just doesn't see
