Antônio Carlos Jobim
Corcovado (Quiet Nights of Quiet Stars)
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 looking 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 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

My world was dull each minute
Until I found you in it
And all at once the happiness I knew
Became these quiet nights of loving you
