Nana Mouskouri - The Guests lyrics

One by one, the guests arrive
The guests are coming through
The open hearted many the broken hearted few
And no one knows where the night is going
And no one knows why the wine is flowing
Oh love I need you i need you
I need you i need you
Oh i need you now

And those who dance, begin to dance
Those who weep begin
And "Welcome, welcome" cries a voice
"Let all my guests come in"

And no one knows where the night is going

And all go stumbling through that
House in lonely secrecy
Saying "Do reveal yourself" or "Why
Has thou forsaken me?"

And no one knows where the night is going

All at once the torches flare
The inner door flies open
One by one they enter there
In every style of passion

And no one knows where the night is going

And here they take their sweet repast
While house and grounds dissolve
And one by one the guests are cast
Beyond the garden wall

And no one knows where the night is going

Those who dance, begin to dance
Those who weep begin
Those who earnestly are lost
Are lost and lost again

And no one knows where the night is going

One by the guests arrive
The guests are coming through
The broken hearted many the open hearted few

And no one knows where the night is going
