The Boy From Ipanema Songtext
von Crystal Waters

Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema
Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema

Tall and tan and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes
Each one he passes goes, ah

When he walks he′s like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when he passes
Each one he passes goes, ah

(Ipanema, Ipanema)

Oh, how 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

(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)
(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)

(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)

Tall and tan and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes I smile
But he doesn′t see

(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)
(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)

Oh, how 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, he doesn't see
No, no, no, no, no

(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)
(Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema, Ipanema)
