Lebanese Night (Featuring Elissa) Lyrics by Chris De Burgh

Lebanese Night (Featuring Elissa)

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
And 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
And 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

  
   ?
?     

    ?
     ??
?  ?  

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 the Lebanon
