Aaron Neville - Such A Night

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!!
