Aaron Neville – Such a Night
Twas the night before christmas all white with snow
I was lying back waiting for my baby to show
I was searching my mind for the right things to say
cause she had to leave the very next day
When out on the driveway I heard such a clatter
I dimmed all the lights and put on clyde mcphatter
And she came to the doorway and she gave me a kiss
And the rest of the night went something like this
It was a night
Oo what a night it was, it really was
Such a night
The moon was bright
Oo how bright it was, it really was
Such a night
The night was alive
With the stars above
Oo when she kissed
I had to fall in love
Oo it was a kiss
Oo what a kiss it was, it really was
Such a kiss
How she could kiss!
Oo what a kiss it was, it really was
Such a kiss
Just the thought of her lips sets me afire
I reminisce, I´m filled with desire
And I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender (doo wah, doo wah)
Oh how I remember! (doo wah, doo wah)
I´ll always remember(doo wah, doo wah)
Oo that night
Oo what a night it was, it really was
Such a night
Came the dawn
And my heart and her love and the night were gone
But I know I´ll never forget her kiss in the moonlight
Oo such a kiss
Oo such a night
And I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender (doo wah, doo wah)
Oh how I remember! (doo wah, doo wah)
I´ll always remember (doo wah, doo wah)
Oo that night
Oo what a night it was, it really was
Such a night
Came the dawn
And my heart and her love and the night were gone
But I know I´ll never forget her kiss in the moonlight
Oo such a kiss
Oo such a night
Well it´s now christmas morning and my baby?s gone
So I light up the tree and turn the radio on
I sit down in my chair and let out a sigh
I sang away in a manager and angels on high
Now my family and friends will soon knock on my door
So I´ll say merry christmas to you and to yours
May your days be cheerful and your burdens be light
Oh but mostly I wish everyone such a night
Now she´s gone, gone, gone
Yeah she´s gone, gone, gone
And the dawn, dawn, dawn
And the night was gone
And my heart was gone
And her love was gone
And before the dawn
Oh oh oh
Such a night!!
