Lyrics: Norman Gimbel
Music: Antonio Carlos Jobim
An instrumental fragment was played by the Grateful Dead during a rehearsal at Bob Weir's studio on 28 February 1975
The English lyrics are:
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes
Each one she passes goes "ah"
When she walks, she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes "ooh"
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 looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall, tan, 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
She never sees me
