Tall and tan and young and handsome
|
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
|
And when he passes, each girl he passes goes ahah
|
When he walks, he's like a samba
|
He swings so cool and sways so gently
|
That when he passes, each girl he passes goes ahah
|
|
Oh, but I watch him so sadly
|
How can I tell him I love him
|
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
|
But each day when he walks to the sea
|
He looks straight ahead, not at me
|
|
Tall and tan and young and handsome
|
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
|
And when he passes, I smile
|
But he doesn't see, no doesn't see
|
|
Oh, but I watch him so sadly
|
How can I tell him I love him
|
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
|
But each day when he walks to the sea
|
He looks straight ahead, not at me
|
|
Tall and tan and young and handsome
|
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
|
And when he passes, I smile
|
But he doesn't see, no doesn't see
