Love Theme from "A Star Is Born"
Barbra Streisand & Kris Kristofferson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Love soft as an easy chair
Love fresh as the morning air
One love that is shared by two
I have found with you
Like a rose under the April snow
I was always certain love would grow
Love ageless and evergreen
Seldom seen by two
You and I will
Make each night the first
Everyday a beginning
Spirits rise and their dance is unrehearsed
They warm and excite us
'Cause we have the brightest love
Two lights that shine as one
Morning glory and midnight sun
Time, we've learned to sail above




Time, won't change the meaning of one love
Ageless and ever, evergreen
