Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
[Verse 2]
Witch doctors are screamin'
Nymphs are dreaming
This girls' lost someone
Who is that someone she's leavin'?
[Verse 3]
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
[Verse 4]
Hot latitudes, cool attitudes
She's leavin'
Moon in her mirror, chasing Northern lights
She goes, ah
[Verse 5]
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
[Verse 6]
Remember wherever you go
There you are
[Verse 7]
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl from Ipanema she goes to Greenland
Girl
