Golden light dances on the shore tonight Waves whisper secrets to the fading day Your silhouette against the amber sky Makes all my worries drift away In this moment, time stands still Every heartbeat, every thrill Sunset in Ipanema, painting dreams in gold Your hand in mine, the story that we're told Ocean breeze is calling, love is in the air Nothing else can matter when you're standing there Seagulls circle overhead like notes In melodies the evening likes to play Your laughter mingles with the gentle wind As purple shadows chase the light away In your eyes I see the stars Every wish, no matter how far Sunset in Ipanema, painting dreams in gold Your hand in mine, the story that we're told Ocean breeze is calling, love is in the air Nothing else can matter when you're standing there When the moon replaces sun And the day is nearly done We'll remember how it felt When our hearts began to melt In the magic of this place Time and love in sweet embrace Sunset in Ipanema, memories we'll hold Your hand in mine, a story to be told Ocean breeze keeps calling, love is everywhere Everything that matters, we will always share
