Quiet Nights Of Quiet Stars (Corcovado)

Ella Fitzgerald

4

Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar

Floating on the silence that surrounds us.

Quiet thoughts and dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams,

And a window on the mountains and the sea - 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 existance, oh, my love.
