Frank SINATRA - I Will Wait For You (Reprise® Recordings 1966)

Frank Sinatra
Reprise Recordings 1966
(M. Legrand, N. Gimbel, J. Demy)


The clock will tick away the hours one by one
And then the time will come when all the waiting's done,
The time when you return and find me here and run

If it takes for-ever I will wait for you
For a thousand summers I will wait for you;
Till you're back, back beside me,
till I'm holding you,
Till I hear you sigh here in my arms,

Anywhere you wander, anywhere you go
Every day remember how I love you so
In your heart believe what in my heart I know
That forevermore I'll wait for,
for you..

I had never heard the Connie Francis version until I heard everyone raving about it. Yes, its excellent. However, Frank's version has a "gin-soaked" passion to it that evokes an image of a man who leads a "swingin'" lifestyle almost in an attempt to hide from the world how he waits for his one true love. I always imagined him singing this song to himself or to a woman's photo after closing time at a bar. The music mirrors that swinging, smoldering passion. Its perfect!!!

I love Sinatra, but the musical distribution and the somewhat happy music destroys the rhythm and the meaning of the song . I agree that Connies recording is the best. Sounds so pure and from heart. Nevertheless Sinatra is AWESOME!
