Lebanese Night
Lebanese Night -Chris De Burgh
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;
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
