 "For the good are always the merry,
Save by an evil chance,
And the merry love the fiddle,
And the merry love to dance."

~ William Butler Yeats, "The Fiddler of Dooney"
(1865 - 1939)

"To know someone here or there with whom you can feel there is understanding
in spite of distances or thoughts expressed ~ That can make life a garden."

Unchained Melody

Written in 1955 for the movie, "Unchained", the words and music are by Alex North and Hy Zaret.
 

Oh, my love, my darling, I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time.
Time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much.
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love,
God speed your love to me.

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea,
To the open arms of the sea. 
Lonely rivers sigh, "Wait for me, wait for me,
I'll be coming home, wait for me."

Oh, my love, my darling, I've hungered for your touch,
A long, lonely time.
Time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love,
God speed your love to me.

Lonely mountains gaze at the stars, at the stars,
Waiting for the dawn of the day.
All alone I gaze at the stars, at the stars,
Dreaming of my love far away.

Oh, my love, my darling, I've hungered for your touch,
A long, lonely time.
Time goes by so slowly, and time can do so much,
Are you still mine?
I need your love, I need your love, God speed your love to me.

 

 

 


The music you are hearing is "Unchained Melody", chosen because it was the first and last dance played on the night of the reunion.

If you can't bear not hearing The Righteous Brothers singing the Unchained Melody,
 there's a gal named Katrina who has a lovely site with their actual recording playing.
Don't ask me how she did it, but bear in mind that it takes "a long, lonely time" to load the page! Click on:
