Quiet Nights is the tenth studio album by Canadian singer Diana Krall, released on March 31, 2009 by Verve Records. The album marks Krall's first work with arranger Claus Ogerman since 2002's Live in Paris, and her first studio work with Ogerman since 2001'sThe Look of Love. In 2010, the title track earned Claus Ogerman the Grammy Award for Best Instrumental Arrangement Accompanying Vocalist(s).

The album's title comes from the English-language title of the bossa nova standard "Corcovado", written by Antonio Carlos Jobim and first made popular in the early 1960s. The title track is one of three selections written or co-written by Jobim. Krall had previously included the Jobim-penned "How Insensitive" ("Insensatez") on her 2006 release From This Moment On, and performed Jobim's "The Boy from Ipanema" with Rosemary Clooney on the latter's 2000 album Brazil.

Someone to hold me tight

That would be very nice

Someone to love me right

That would be very nice

Someone to understand each little dream in me

Someone to take my hand and be a team with me

So nice life would be so nice

If one day I find

Someone who would take my hand and samba through life with me

Someone to cling to me stay with me right or wrong

Someone to sing to me some little samba song

Someone to take my heart and give his heart to me

Someone who's ready to give love a start with me

Oh yes that would be so nice, nice

Should it be you and me

I could see it would be nice

Someone to cling to me stay with me right or wrong

Someone to sing to me some little samba song

Someone to take my heart and give his heart to me

Someone who's ready to give love a start with me

Oh yes, life would be so nice, nice

Should it be you and me

I could see it would nice
