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 sways so gently
that when she passes
each one she passes goes ah

Oh but he watch her so sadly
how can he tell her he loves so
yes he would give his 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 he smiles
but she doesn't see

Oh but he watch her so sadly
how can he tell her he loves so
yes he would give his 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 he smiles
but she doesn't see
but she just doesn't see
no she doesn't see
but she doesn't see
