Girl of
Ipanema Lyric:
Tall and tan
and young and lovely, the girl from Ipanema goes walking
and
when she passes each one she passes, goes "Ahh".
When she walks she's like a samba that swings so cool &
sways so
gentle that
when she passes, each one she passes goes, "Ahh!!".
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 when she walks to the sea, she walks 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

Garota de
Ipanema
(Portuguese)
Olha que covisa
mais linda
mais cheia de graça
É ela menina que em e que passa
nun doce balanço, caminho do mar...
Moça do corpo dourado, do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado é mais que un poema
é a covisa mais linda
que eu já i passar...
Ah! Porque estou tão sozinho
Ah! Porque tudo é tão triste
Ah! A beleza que existe
A beleza que não é só minha
que também passa sozinha
Ah! Se ela soubesse
que quando ela passa
o mundo sorrindo
se enche de graça
e fica mais lindo
por causa do amor
por causa do amor
por causa do amor
