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!! |
