Tekst :
In der Taverne kehrt ich ein
da sah ich dich beim Kerzenschein
und nach dem ersten Tanz mit dir hat sich die Welt gedreht mit mir.
Die Bouzouki
die Nacht und der Wein
ja
sie Iäuteten für uns die Liebe ein.
Als die andern schon alle gegangen
schien der Mond nur für uns ganz allein.
Die Bouzouki
die Nacht und der Wein
brachten uns dazu
einander nah zu sein
als das Lied von der Liebe sie sangen
die Bouzouki
die Nacht und der Wein.
Die letzten Kerzen gingen aus
da gingen wir verliebt nach Haus
und jeder hat dabei gespürt
daß dieses Lied nie enden wird.
Die Bouzouki
die Nacht und der Wein
Tekst :
Ave Maria! Maiden mild...
Oh! listen to a maiden s pray r,
For thou canst hear them in the wild.
Tis thou, tis thou canst hear amid despair.
We slumbered safely til the morrow
Though we, by men outcast, reviled;
Oh maiden, see a maiden?s sorrow.
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child!
Ave Maria.... Ahh...
Ave Maria,
Gratia plena.
Maria, gratia plena;
Maria, gratia plena.
Ave, ave Dominus,
Dominus tecum.
The murky cavern?s air so heavy
Shall breathe of balm if thou hast smil?d
Oh maiden, hear a maiden pleading;
Oh mother, hear a suppliant child!
Ave Maria...
Tekst :
I hesitate to say I was bait for you
Could that be something that you all would do
I d be lying if I did now say I wasn t intrigued
But timing is everything here
And for the moment the we is reprieved
But, as I watch the girl unfold before my eyes,
I discover that I like her
Would you please get our from under my skin
Cause I can t begin this yet
And I don t know what my intentions are
They re speaking in a different tongue
And deep inside, I m not as tough as I seem
But I won t let you know
Until it s right, I m gonna stay my distance
And you should go
I m in the dance, and it s a chance,
But stay and watch awhile
I ll be singing a tune just for you with a smile
And maybe, if I m lucky
You ll tip your hat to me, and you ll discover
That you like her
Would you please get our from under my skin
For I can t begin this yet
And I don t know what my intentions are
They re speaking in a different tongue
And deep inside, I m not as tough as I seem
But I won t let you know
Until it s right, I m gonna stay my distance
And you should go
Crazy as it al plays out
I think I m lonelier than I ve ever been before
Cause I was so close
To going through that door
But I don t want to be to blame for them
I don t want to be to blame
Would you please get our from under my skin
Cause I can t begin this yet
And I don t know what my intentions are
They re speaking in a different tongue
And deep inside, I m not as tough as I seem
But I won t let you know
Until it s right, I m gonna stay my distance
And you should go, go, go
Oh, would you please get out
I m not as strong as I seem, but I won t let you know
