Tarde Em Itapoã

Tom Jobim 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
