Quiet Night Of Quiet Stars (Corcovado)
Andy Williams
English Words by Gene Lees and Music by Antonio Carlos Jobim
(peak Adult Contemporary Billboard position # 15 in 1965)
Quiet nights and quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us
Quiet nights and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And the window lookin' on the mountains and the sea how lovely
This is where to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was a only a bitter tragic joke
Have found with you the meaning of existence oh, my love
This is where to be
Here with you so close to me
Till the final flicker of life's ember
I who was lost and lonely
Believing life was a only a tragic joke
Have found with you the meaning of existence oh, my love
