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 |
|
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 |
|
Then 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 the 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 |
|
I will be waiting in Lebanon |
