A Burt Bacharach/Hal David composition

The look of love
Is in your eyes
The look your smile can't disguise
The look of love
Is saying so much more
Than these words could ever say
And what my heart has heard,
Well, it takes my breath away.

I can hardly wait to hold you,
Feel my arms around you.
How long I have waited,
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you

You've got the look of love
It's on your face
A look that time can't erase.
Be mine tonight
Let this be just the start
Of so many nights like this
Lets take a lovers vow
And then seal it with a kiss.

I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you,
How long I have waited,
Waited just to hold you,
Now that I have found you,
Don't ever go,
I love you so.

  • I believe I have only heard the Sergio Mendes version of this song. It seems I need to get out more and expand my horizons. I certainly enjoyed this version.

  • The Sergio Mendes version is very good DesertSavvy. Have you heard Dusty Springfield sing this? Some say it's the definitive version and I have to admit that it is very good. But the velvety voice of Nina Simone adds an extra dimension that few can match.

  • Thank you so much posting this !

  • You're welcome tvjustice. I thought I was old, but 108... wow! It is comforting to know that old age does not affect good taste. More Nina coming soon.

  • her voice is so warm and calming and so beautiful

  • beyond compare

  • how long i have waited...

    

  • This is it!

  • Great song and a magnificent singer! And yet the combination is all wrong for me. This song is for a husky voice like Dusty Springfield's or Dionne Warwick's. Nina's deep power comes into full bloom in Strange Fruit or Mississippi Goddamn or Don't Explain. Having said that, I like what you've done with the pictures! Very nice. :)

  • Nina Simone is a vast talent.

  • Great!

  • I am true convert! I count myself among those who have an appreciation for one Dusty Springfield.

  • Don't know if you explored Dusty Springfield any further, but Son Of A Preacher Man is a song for which she is probably better known.. Very good!!!
