Corcovado Lyrics


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 wanna 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
I found with you, oh my dear
The meaning of existence
Oh, my love
This is where I wanna 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
I found with you, oh my dear
The meaning of existence
The meaning of existence
The meaning of existence
Oh, my love

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Charles L. Byrd (September 16, 1925 - November 30, 1999), better known as Charlie Byrd, was a famous jazz guitarist, born in Suffolk, Virginia. He was the only jazz guitarist of that era whose primary instrument was the classical guitar which gave him his uniquely identifiable sound. Byrd primarily looked up to Django Reinhardt. He moved to Washington, D.C., to study classical guitar with the renowned Sophocles Papas. He later moved to Italy where he studied with Andrés Segovia.
