A Night Like This

"A Night Like This" is the eleventh song on Caro Emerald's debut album, "Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor".

Description

 * "One night in a casino where dreams come true, leads to an oceanside cliff party of the rich and richer. Swim, dip, bet, bite, stuff, bluff, turn, twist, wink, blink, and of course, that Martini drink. The perfect combination where you're in like Flynn and fawned like Bond in search of the romantic fantasy where intrigue meets dreams."

Lyrics
From where you are You see the smoke start to arrive where they play cards And you walk over, softly movin' past the guards The stakes are gettin' higher, you can feel it in your heart

He calls your bluff He is the ace you never thought he'd play that much And now it's more than all this cards you want to touch You never know if winnin' this could really be enough

Take a look beyond the moon You'll see the stars And when you look around You know the room by heart

I have never dreamed it Have you ever dreamed a night like this I cannot believe it I may never see a night like this When everything you think is incomplete Starts happening when you are cheek to cheek Could you ever dream it I have never dreamed Dreamed a night like this

How many times Have I been waiting by the door to hear these chimes To hear that someone debonair has just arrived And opened up to see my world before my eyes

That silhouette Creates an image and a night I can't forget It has the scent of something special - I can't rest If I resist temptation, oh I know for sure that I will lose the bet

I walk away, and suddenly it seems I'm not alone In front of me he stands I stop before he goes

I have never dreamed it Have you ever dreamed a night like this I cannot believe it I may never see a night like this When everything you think is incomplete Starts happening when you are cheek to cheek Could you ever dream it I have never dreamed Dreamed a night like this
