Lyrics for Song: The Boy From Ipanema
Lyrics for Album: There's A Place For Us [2004]
(Jobim/Gimble/DeMoraes)
Oh, how I love him
But he just doesn't see
Tall and tan and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes
Each girl 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 girl
He passes goes - 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 goes - ah
I smile - but he doesn't see (doesn't see)
He just doesn't see, he never sees me

The Boy From Ipanema
Supremes deliver a polished rendition of 'The Boy From Ipanema' on their 2004 compilation 'There's A Place For Us.' This track captures the group's signature vocal harmony and smooth R&B style, reimagining the classic songwriting of Tom Adair and Johnny Burke. The recording showcases the Detroit-based vocalists' ability to blend soulful delivery with a sophisticated arrangement that honors the original's romantic atmosphere. While the song was originally recorded by the Brazilian bossa nova group The Bossa Boys, the Supremes' version remains a standout example of their mid-to-late career output, reflecting their commitment to covering timeless standards with their unique musical identity. |
