Love Songs

Beauty and the Beast (Tonight, I Celebrate My Love For You)



Peabo Bryson & Roberta Flack - Tonight I Celebrate My Love




Tonight I Celebrate My Love



Tonight I Celebrate My Love Song Lyrics
By Peabo Bryson and Roberta Flack

Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
It seems the natural thing to do!
Tonight, no one’s going to find us,
We’ll leave the world behind us,
When I make love to you, tonight!

Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
And hope that you can feel that way too!
Tonight our spirits will be climbin’
To a sky lit up with diamonds!
When I make love to you, tonight!

Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
And the midnight sun is gonna come shining through,
Tonight, there’ll be no distance between us,
What I want most of you,
Is to get close to you,
Tonight!

Tonight I celebrate my love for you,
And soon this old world will seem brand new!
Tonight, we will both discover,
How friends turn into lovers,
When I make love to you, tonight!

You Are The Love Of My Life

Fall In Love



First Affections are the purest and strongest, and if such feelings are met with corresponding feelings and impressions, they are not easily effaced from the mind.


Falling In Love
"Falling in Love" is an expression which is commonly made use of, but it is an expression which is not altogether admirable.

Love steals upon the feminine heart...

Numerous and various causes may be mentioned as tending to a person's 'falling in love'. The female heart is generally soft and tender and is easily susceptible of emotions, which are soon awakened, and wrought upon by flattery and praise.

Impressions are very quickly formed on the mind of a young female, which are not easily effaced; and at once she gives up her heart to him who has been the cause of awakening those feelings in her mind.

Love steals upon the feminine heart giving a glow and brightness to what was before obscure and dim.



The Requisites most essential in a lover are:
  • An agreeable person
  • accomplished manners
  • sweetness of temper and disposition
  • free from levity and anything
  • bordering on the ridiculous
  • an unblemished reputation
  • a mind stored with virtuous principle
With a partner of this kind, none need fear to venture upon the stream of matrimony.

Love And Marriage



A marriage is an occasion for great festivity among family and friends, and its celebration has become the focus for more customs and folklore than any other event. All over the world, and in all cultures, time-honoured traditions are observed, as guests gather together to toast the bride and groom.


Marriage
Love one another, but make not a bond of love

Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.

Fill each other's cup, but drink not from one cup

Give one another of your bread, but eat not from the same loaf

Sing and dance together and be joyous,
but let each one of you be alone

Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music

Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping

For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.

And stand together yet not too near together

For the pillars of the temple stand apart

And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow

~ Kahil Gibran, The Prophet (1882-1931)
Short notes about Kahil Gibran, The Prophet (1882-1931) : Kahlil Gibran was born in 1883 near Mount Lebanon, a region that has produced many prophets. He was a poet, philosopher and artist and his poetry has been translated into more than twenty languages. His drawings and paintings were compared by Auguste Rodin to the work of William Blake.

Quotes By Kahil Gibran



The convention of a white wedding is comparatively recent: until the 19th century many women simply married in their best dress, which might be any colour. White was associated with virginity, but not specifically with brides. Blue was a popular choice as it was associated with purity and fidelity, and the old tradition of wearing blue continues as part of the custom of wearing "something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue" which is still widely followed by brides today. Each of the required elements may be on her dress or form part of the bride's accessories. The 'old' symbolizes the past, the 'new' looks to the future and the 'borrowed' is a link with the present.

My Love My Life

You are the love of my life



You Are The Love Of My Life



You are the LOve of My Life



You Are The Love Of My Life Song Lyrics
Artist: George Beson - Roberta Flack

M: You are the love of my life, I knew it right from the start
The moment I looked at you, you found a place in my heart

F: You are the love of my life, you give me reason to live
You taught me how to be strong. With you is where I belong

B: No one's ever touched me, quite the way you've touched me
People search a lifetime to find what we have.

F: You are the love of my life, one thing that's good in this life

B: I'll spend the rest of my days just loving you

M: You are the love of my life, the heart and soul of my life.

B: Once I was lost and alone, with you, at last, I am home
[instrumental line]

B: You give me so much of you and leave me room to be free.



B: No one's ever touched me, quite the way you've touched me
People search a lifetime to find what we have.

F: You are the love of my life, one thing that's good in this life

M: And in a world full of change, one thing I'm sure of
You are the love of my life,
one thing that makes sense in this life

B: I'll spend the rest of my days just loving you

M: You are the love of my life and I thank God I'm alive

B: To spend my lifetime with you, You are the love of my life.
