Lebanese Night
(专辑: Timing Is Everything - 2002)
It was late in a
Lebanese restaurant, in the
heat of a
Lebanese night, There was dancing, people were singing, she came in from the
garden outside, And in her eyes I
saw the
stars, And I
felt something happen in my heart; Then I
knew I
was going to meet her in the
heat of a
Lebanese night, And the
girl inside the
woman, who came over to sit by my side, And when she smiled, the
whole world stopped, It was then I
heard the
echoes of a
child; And did you go to your bed with a
sweet lullaby, And the
sound of the
guns in the
night, And did you dance in the
fields, did you run for your life, From the
hell that came down from the
sky? On a
Lebanese night, on a
Lebanese night; We went down to the
edge of the
water, by the
light of a
Lebanese dawn, And she told me all the
stories of her beautiful land in the
war, Her tears fell down, the
sun came up, And I
saw again the
young girl in her eyes; And did you go to your bed with a
sweet lullaby, And the
sound of the
guns in the
night, And did you dance in the
fields, did you run for your life, From the
hell that came down from the
sky? On a
Lebanese night, on a
Lebanese night; All of my life, all I
have known, only a
place where peace cannot go; All over the
world, the
gift from before, nothing is left for the
children of war; And did you go to your bed with a
sweet lullaby, And the
sound of the
guns in the
night, And did you dance in the
fields, did you run for your life, From the
hell that came down from the
sky? On a
Lebanese night, on a
Lebanese night, On a
Lebanese night, on a
Lebanese night, I
will be waiting, in the
Lebanon.
