Eddi Reader It's a Beautiful Night lyrics

It's a beautiful night and I know that its all mine
the sky is darker than its ever been
the stars are brighter than I've ever seen
and this must be what love is
a moment out of time
and if I say goodbye to you
and years go by I know this will be true
that everything's alright
cause it's a beautiful night
now there's a quarter moon
and it's smiling down on me
yesterday has been and gone

I know tomorrow might never come
you see I prayed the clocks won't move
this is all I want to be
and when you turned away and laughed
I wished we were a photograph
tell me everything's alright
cause it's a beautiful night
stars never shone so bright
it's a beautiful night
