Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars (Corcovado) lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[Verse 2]
This is where I wanna 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 I found with you
The meaning of existence, my love

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2]
This is where I wanna 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 I found with you
The meaning of existence, my love
[Outro]
My love
My love
