Quiet Nights

Diana Krall Quiet Nights Lyrics
1.Where Or When

It seems we stood and talked like this before
We looked at each other the same way then
But I can't remember where or when
The clothes you're wearing are the clothes you wore
The smile you are smiling you were smiling then
But I can't remember where or when
Some things that happen for the first time
Seem to be happening again
And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before and loved before
But who knows where or when?

And so it seems that we have met before
And laughed before and loved before
But who knows where or when?


2.Too Marvelous For Words

You're just too marvelous
Too marvelous for words
Like glorious, glamorous
And that old standby amorous

It's all too wonderful
I'll never find the words
That say enough, tell enough
I mean they just aren't swell enough

You're much too much, and just too very very
To ever be, in Webster's dictionary
And so, I'm borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that you're marvelous
Too marvelous for words


You're much too much, and just too very very
To ever be, in Webster's dictionary
And so, I'm borrowing a love song from the birds
To tell you that you're marvelous
Too marvelous for words


3.I've Grown Accustomed To His Face

I've grown accustomed to his face
he almost makes the day begin
I've grown accustomed to the tune
that he whistles night and noon
his smiles, his frowns
his ups, his downs
are second nature to me now
like breathing out and breathing in

I was serenely independent
and content before we met
surely I could always be that way again
and yet, I've grown accustomed to his look
accustomed to his voice
accustomed to his face

I've grown accustomed to his face
he almost makes the day begin
'good morning,' every day
his joys, his woes
his highs, his lows
are second nature to me now
like breathing out and breathing in

I'm very grateful he's a man and so easy to forget
rather like a habit one can always break
and yet, I've grown accustomed
to the trace of something in the air

accustomed to his face...


4.The Boy From Ipanema

Tall and tan and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes
Each girl he passes goes - ah

When he walks
He's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when he passes each girl
He passes goes - ah

Ooh, but I watch him so sadly
How can I tell him I love him
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day
When he walks to the sea
He looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, and tan, and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes goes - ah
I smile - but he doesn't see (doesn't see)
He just doesn't see, he never sees me

Ooh, but I watch him so sadly
How can I tell him I love him
Yes I would give my heart gladly
But each day
When he walks to the sea
He looks straight ahead, not at me

Tall, and tan, and young and handsome
The boy from Ipanema goes walking
And when he passes goes - ah
I smile - but he doesn't see (doesn't see)
He just doesn't see, he never sees me


5.Walk On By

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry, each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve in private
'Cos each time that I see you I break down and cry
Walk on by, walk on by, just walk on by

'Cos I just can't get over losing you
And if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by (just walk on by),
walk on by (just walk on by)

Foolish pride, is all that I have left
So let me hide the tears and all the sadness
that you gave me when you said goodbye
When you walk on by (don't stop),

If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry, each time we meet
Walk on by, walk on by

Make believe that you don't see the tears
Just let me grieve in private
'Cos each time that I see you I break down and cry
Walk on by, walk on by, just walk on by

'Cos I just can't get over losing you
And if I seem broken and blue
Walk on by (just walk on by),
walk on by (just walk on by)

Foolish pride, is all that I have left
So let me hide the tears and all the sadness
that you gave me when you said goodbye
walk on by (just walk on by),
walk on by (just walk on by)


6.You're My Thrill

Youre my thrill
You do something to me
You send chills right through me
When I look at you
cause youre my thrill

Youre my thrill
How my pulse increases
I just go to pieces
When I look at you
cause youre my thrill

nothing seems to matter
heres my heart on a silver platter
Wheres my will
Why this strange desire
That keeps morning higher
When I look at you
I cannt keep still
Youre my thrill

nothing seems to matter
heres my heart on a silver platter
Wheres my will
Why this strange desire
That keeps morning higher
When I look at you
I cannt keep still
Youre my thrill


7.Este Seu Olhar

Este seu olhar
Quando encontra o meu
Fala de umas coisas
Que eu
Não posso acreditar
Doce é sonhar
É pensar que você
Gosta de mim
Como eu de você

Mas a ilusão
Quando se desfaz
Dói no coração
De quem sonhou
Sonhou demais
Ah
Se eu
Pudesse entender
O que dizem
Os seus olhos


8.So Nice

Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
To be a team with me

So nice, life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone who would take my hand
And samba through life with me

Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me

Oh yes, that would be so nice
I could see you and me, that would be nice

Someone to cling to me
Stay with me right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me

Oh yes, that would be so nice
I could see you and me, that would be nice


9.Quiet Nights

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
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.

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.


10.Guess I'll Hang My Tears Out To Dry

The torch I carry is handsome
It's worth its heartache in ransom
Now when that twilight steals
I know how the lady in the harbor feels

When I want rain, I get sunny weather
I'm just as blue, blue as the sky
Since love has gone, I can't get myself together
Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry

My friend ask me out, but I tell them I'm busy
I've got to get a new alibi
I hang around at home, and ask myself: 'Where is she?'
Guess I'll hang my tears out to dry

Dry little tear drops, my little tear drops
Moving on a stream of dreams
My little memories, those precious memories
Remind me of our crazy schemes

Then somebody says, just forget about her
But I gave that treatment a try
Strangely enough, I got along without her
Then one day she passed me right by - oh well
I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry

Then somebody says, just forget about her
But I gave that treatment a try
Strangely enough, I got along without her
Then one day she passed me right by - oh well
I guess I'll hang my tears out to dry


11.How Can You Meand A Broken Heart

Lyricist:Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb
Writer(s):Barry Gibb, Robin Gibb


How Can You Mend a Broken Heart

I can think of younger days when living for my life
Was everything a girl could want to do.
I could never see tomorrow, I was never told about the sorrow.

And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend a this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again.

I can still feel the breeze that rustles through the trees
And misty memories of days gone by
We could never see tomorrow, noone said a word about the sorrow.

And how can you mend a broken heart?
How can you stop the rain from falling down?
How can you stop the sun from shining?
What makes the world go round?
How can you mend this broken man?
How can a loser ever win?
Please help me mend my broken heart and let me live again


12.Every Time We Say Goodbye

Every time we say goodbye
I die a little
Every time we say goodbye
I wonder why a little
Why the Godss above me
Who must be in the know
Think so little to me
They allow you to go

When you're near
there's such an air
of Spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
begin to sing about it
Theres no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time we say goodbye

When you're near
Theres such an air
of Spring about it
I can hear a lark somewhere
Begin to sing about it
Theres no love song finer
But how strange the change
From major to minor
Every time you say
