Tall and tan and young and lovely The girl from Ipanema goes walking And when she passes, each one she passes goes Oh, 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 Oh, 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 as 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 Look what a beautiful thing, so full of grace She's the girl who comes and goes In a sweet swing on the sea Girl with a golden body, from the sun of Ipanema Your swing is more than a poem It's the most beautiful thing I've ever seen Oh, 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 as 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 Por causa do amor No, she just doesn't see Nem olha pra mim No, she doesn't see me
