Charlie Wood and Jacqui Dankworth - Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars

Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence
That surrounds us
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And a window looking out on
Corcovado, oh how lovely

This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
Believing love was only
A bitter tragic joke
Have found with you
The meaning of existence
Oh, my love

This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
Believing love was only
A bitter tragic joke
Have found with you
The meaning of existence
Oh, my love

Mmm-mm-mm-mm
Mmm-mm-mm-mm
Mmm-mm-mm-mm
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Corcovado
Quiet nights of quiet stars
