Lyrics
Tall and tan and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes
Each time he passes I go "Ah"
When he walks, he's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when he passes
Each time he passes, I go "Ah"
Ooh
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
Ooh
But I want him so madly
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
He doesn't see
No, he doesn't see
He doesn't see
What's wrong with him?
