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 Oh what a night it was, it really was Such a night The moon was bright Oh how bright it was, it really was Such a night The night was alive With the stars above Oh when she kissed I had to fall in love. Oh it was a kiss Oh what a kiss it was, it really was Such a kiss How she could kiss! Oh 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 Oh how I remember! I'll always remember Oh that night Oh 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 Oh such a kiss Oh such a night And I gave my heart to her in sweet surrender Oh how I remember! I'll always remember Oh that night Oh 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 Oh such a kiss Oh 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! --- Such a Night - Aaron Neville
