2 Weekends in Beirut

                                    Words and music by Zane

 

Saw her for the first time

On a steamy summer night

I took a look all over

Taken by her sights

 

Never thought her beauty

Was something I would see

She was nothing like

Any pictures on TV

 

I danced all night on a roof in that city

I fell in love with the way she moved me

And it only took 2 weekends in Beirut

 

Damaged on the outside

So frail she is within

I felt her inner warmness

Underneath her skin

 

Deep inside her shadows

Lies the mystery

Of how she still can smile

With such a history

 

I danced all night on a roof in that city

I fell in love with the way she moved me

And it only took 2 weekends in Beirut

 

I danced all night on a roof in that city

Yes, I danced all night to the rhythm of her beat

And it only took, it only took 2 weekends

in Beirut
