about

#1 of the unofficial Caspian's Island tracks we will be putting out in between main releases.

Caspian's Island rendition of the legendary Brazilian tune with some added lyrics of my own too cos I felt like it.

It was written in 1962, with music by Antônio Carlos Jobim and Portuguese lyrics by Vinícius de Moraes. English lyrics were written later by Norman Gimbel.

lyrics

Tall and tan
And young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking and
When she passes, each one she passes goes
ahhhh

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
ooooh

But as I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her?
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day as she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me

(Here of there)
(It's all the same to me)
(You see)
(It's just another place to be)

Tall and tan
And young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking and
When she passes, she smiles
But she doesn't see
No she just doesn't see
No she just doesn't see
No she just doesn't see
