Tarde Em Itapoã
Tom Jobim
Afternoon in Itapoã
An old bathing suit
The day to laze around
A sea that has no size
A rainbow in the air
After Caymmi square
Feeling lazy in the body
And on a wicker mat
Drinking a coconut water
It's good to spend an afternoon in Itapoã
Under the burning sun in Itapoã
Listening to the sea of Itapoã
Talking about love in Itapoã
While the sea unveils
A brand new green
Arguing sweetly
With a corked cachaça
And with the gaze forgotten
In the meeting of sky and sea
Very slowly and feeling
The whole earth spinning
It's good to spend an afternoon
It's good to spend an afternoon
Then feel the shiver
Of the wind that the night brings
And the soft gossip
That sprouts from the coconut trees
And in the serene spaces
Without yesterday or tomorrow
Sleep in the tanned arms
Of the moon of Itapoã
It's good to spend an afternoon
It's good to spend an afternoon
