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 that
looks out on Corcovado,
oh how lovely

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 that
looks out on Corcovado,
oh how lovely
This is where I want to be here
with you so close to me
until the final flicker
of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
believing life 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
until the final flicker
of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
believing life was only
a bitter tragic joke,
have found with you,
the meaning of existence,
oh my love
