Lyrics

The way you’re staring you look better than midnight
On a boat over Guanabara Bay
I see your lights on the north side of the city
I hear your breath as you’re running away
In the arms of a wayfaring stranger
Trying to dance with the time we got left
I feel a pulse from the people before us
Blame the cobbled streets when it’s harder to step
Take it easy now
I’ve been running trying to free my mind
I’ve been dreaming of the nights down in Rio
Oh I wanna kiss you and I think I might
Oh maybe you can meet me in the middle
I love the way you sing it, you could sing it any way
I love the way you sing it, oh don’t leave me begging
In Ipanema there’s a girl that goes walking
When you see her your whole body will rest
You ask her name and try to beg for attention
She always leaves you, longing, heaving, gasping for breath
Come on baby it’s no fun to be perfect
It comes on fast and it simmers out slow
Everybody’s in this sea of misfortune
Everybody’s dreamin of a place they would go
I’ve been running trying to free my mind
I’ve been dreaming of the nights down in Rio
Oh I wanna kiss you and I think I might
Oh maybe you can meet me in the middle
Take it easy now
I love the way you sing it, you could sing it any way
I love it when you sing it, you could sing it any day
Any day, any way
I’ve been running trying to free my mind
I’ve been dreaming of the nights down in Rio
Oh I wanna kiss you and I think I might
Oh maybe you can meet me in the middle
