She looks straight ahead not at he
That swings so cool and sways so gently
When she walks, she's like a samba
Each one she passes goes, ah
Oh but he watch her so sadly
And when she passes
Oh but he sees her so sadly
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
Yes he would give his heart gladly
Tall and tan and young and lovely
Tall and tan and young and lovely
How can he tell her he loves her
But each day when she walks to the sea
But she doesn't see, she just doesn't see
But each day when she walks to the sea
Tall and tan and young and lovely
Yes he would give his heart gladly
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
She looks straight ahead, not at he
And when she passes he smiles
How can he tell her he loves her
And when she passes he smiles
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
Each one she passes goes ah
That when she passes
But she doesn't see
No she does not see, but she does not see
