Lyrics Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars (Corcovado) - Astrud Gilberto

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
Quero a vida sempre assim
(I want life to always be like this)
Com vocé perto de mim
(With you right next to me)
Até o apagar da velha chama
(Till the love ends)
E eu que era triste
(And I who was sad)
Descrente deste mundo
(Having lost faith in this world)
Ao encontra você eu conheci
(I found you and then I knew)
O que é felicidade, meu amor
(What happiness is, 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
