Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Quiet nights of quiet stars
Quiet chords from my guitar
Floating on the silence that surrounds us
[Verse 2]
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams
Quiet walks by quiet streams
And the window looking on the mountains
And the sea
How lovely
[PreChorus]
This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Until the final flicker of life's ember
[Chorus]
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
[PreChorus]
This is where I want to be
Here with you so close to me
Until the final flicker of life's ember
[Chorus]
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
Written by: Antônio Carlos Jobim, Gene Lees
