Here are the lyrics:
There, now
Her shoulder's bare, now
A yellow moon, so round and so immense
Is sailing through the air now
We stop and stare now
Across the midnight blue it gently flashes
As the silence passes
There comes a voice
Full of the starlight

Oh, but it's just that little song I wrote
To help forget, Luiza.
To you I'm just another fool in love
So full of passion
So much to learn, learn about love
Awaken love
I know that there beneath your snowy silence there beats a heart.

Come here, Luiza.
Give me your hand.
For your desire's the same as my desire
Come free my soul Luiza
Bring me your kisses
Bring me your lips now
Ah, those crazy roses
Bathed in rays of sun
Your hair so golden
And as a diamond breaks light into seven colors dazzling brightly
You reveal in me
The seven thousand loves held in my heart so tightly
just for you, Luiza
Luiza

gave it a go after a bowl and a few cocktails. the title implies that the melody is out of key...kinda fun. my first attempt at a bossa tune.

the first time i heard this song, john pizzarelli was playing   more...a bossa set. introduced me to a lot of great songs...it was a great set. think ray kennedy was on the keys, his brother on bass, and jobim's grandson(great?) sang on a few songs. after the show i got to meet john, (my stepdad/mentor took me to the show, new his pa or sommit like that), and i commented on the pink polkadotted tie he was wearing. i was in highschool at the time, and i think he thought i was taking the mick. he signed my cd, glad you liked the tie.  less

The Girl From Ipanema played on chromatic harmonica.

"The Girl from Ipanema" ("Garota de Ipanema") is a well   more...known bossa nova song, and was a worldwide hit in the mid-1960s. It was written in 1962, with music by Antonio Carlos Jobim and Portuguese lyrics by Vinicius de Moraes with English lyrics written later by Norman Gimbel. It is sometimes sung by female artists as "The Boy from Ipanema."

The first commercial recording was in 1962, by Pery Ribeiro. The version performed by Astrud Gilberto, along with João Gilberto and Stan Getz, from the 1963 album Getz/Gilberto, became an international hit. Numerous recordings have been used in movies, often as an elevator music cliché.

In 2004, it was one of 50 recordings chosen that year by the Library of Congress to be added to the National Recording Registry.  less
