Lyrics:

                                                  
A Night Like That 

A fog swirled ‘round the lamp posts 
on the streets of Manhattan 
a lone saxophone seduced us 
With Coltrane, and Braxton 
My baby wore a red carnation 
In her black satin hair 
stirring something in me 
with her Mona Lisa stare 

Have you ever had a night, a night like that? 
Have you ever had a night like that? 


We moved like any couple would 
Consumed by the heat of love 
We danced so close there was barely room 
For the air between us 
and then I worked up the courage 
to ask for a proper kiss 
And my life from that night on 
was magical like this 


Have you ever had a night to linger on? 
One you wanted to go on and on and on… 
Into forever and forever after that… 
Have you ever had a night like that? 

When my hourglass runs down 
to its final grain of sand 
I can say with certainty 
That I'll die a happy man 
I am wise enough to know 
That heaven already exists 
‘cause few hearts that beat 
have had nights like this 

Have you ever had a night to linger on? 
One you wanted to go on and on and on 
Into forever and forever after that… 
Have you ever had a night like that?
