[Verse 1]

The stars in the night played a Blue Carioca

The moon shone outside as the planet revolved

The wind was caressed with the fragrance of summer

The night gentle nature impelled us to love

[Verse 2]

And I sat alone on a beach by a palm tree

Your silhouette cast a glow on the sand

And there with the sound of the waves and the smell of gardenias

Two lovers sailed on romance through a magical land

[Chorus]

Dancing and dancing all night to that Blue Carioca

Living the wonderful dream that remains

Caught up inside of a Blue Carioca

Two lovers fly on its lovely refrain

[Bridge]

(Ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on, Carioca

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on out to sea

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on, Carioca

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on out to sea

[Chorus]

Dancing and dancing all night to that Blue Carioca

Living the wonderful dream that remains

Caught up inside of a Blue Carioca

Two lovers fly on its lovely refrain

[Outro]

(Ooh-ooh)

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on, Carioca

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on out to sea

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on, Carioca

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on out to sea

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on, Carioca

(Ooh-ooh) Glide, glide on out to sea
