What is a youth? Impetuous fire. What is a maid? Ice and desire. The world wags on, a rose will bloom.... It then will fade: so does a youth, so does the fairest maid.
Comes a time when one sweet smile has a season for a while.... Then love's in love with me. Some they think only to marry, others will tease and tarry. Mine is the very best parry. Cupid he rules us all.
Caper the cape, but sing me the song, Death will come soon to hush us along. Sweeter than honey... and bitter as gall, Love is a task and it never will pall. Sweeter than honey and bitter as gall. Cupid rules us all.
Play our love's theme tonight My love's here, it's no dream tonight It's been so long Since we've danced to our love song I know the melody that made him mine Will be the melody that keeps him close to me (love's theme)
Play our love's theme once more Make him feel, like he felt before While the lights are low Please, let the music flow I know that the melody that made him mine Will be the melody that keeps him close to me (love's theme)
Come and play our love's theme again Touch his heart, touch his soul and then Once we sip the wine His lips will come to mine I know that the melody that made him mine Will be the melody that keeps him close to me Love's theme...
Barry White 2003年逝世,樂壇真的痛失英才. 他身軀龐大,聲線磁性低沉, 只要看過他一次表演,就會印象難忘, 1966年曾組成 LoveUnlimitedOrchestra,
1974 Barry White的《Love'sTheme》更震驚全球,不但排行榜首 很多航空公司都採用其曲作為自己公司的商品廣告曲

When I was young I'd listen to the radio Waiting for my favorite songs When they played I'd sing along It made me smile
Those were such happy times And not so long ago How I wondered where they'd gone But they're back again Just like a long lost friend All the songs I loved so well
Every sha-la-la-la Every wo-o-wo-o Still shines Every shing-a-ling-a-ling That they're starting to sing So fine When they get to the part where he's breaking her heart It can really make me cry Just like before It's yesterday once more
Looking back on how it was in years gone by And the good times that I had Makes today seem rather sad So much has changed It was songs of love that I would sing to then And I'd memorize each word Those old melodies Still sound so good to me As they melt the years away
All my best memories Come back clearly to me Some can even make me cry Just like before It's yesterday once more
