See the lonesome midnight cowboy)
Once his hopes were high as the sky
Once a dream was easy to buy
Too soon, his eager fingers were burned
Soon life's lonely lessons are learned
Hearts are made for caring
Life is made for sharing
(Midnight cowboy, midnight cowboy
See the lonesome midnight cowboy)
Once his hopes were high as the sky
Once a dream was easy to buy
Too soon, his eager fingers were burned
Soon life's lonely lessons are learned
Hearts are made for caring
Life is made for sharing
Love is all that's left in the end
Love can turn the tide for a friend
Love can hold a dream together
Love is all that lasts forever
Love is all that's left in the end
Love can turn the tide for a friend
Love can hold a dream together
Love is all that lasts forever
Love can hold a dream together
Love is all that lasts forever

John Williams doesn't merely create music, he distills nostalgia into a form that decorates time itself.
@davidjensen4702
For me, his music IS each movie, the dialogues are an addition whether it's StarWars, E.T., Superman, Raiders saga, or even Schinder's List, he grabs deep inside all of us from 1 to100 yrs old, AND draws out adventure, or emotion of the moment.

@redfullpack
Even if Harrison Ford passes to a younger successor in the future, this theme is SIGNATURE music heralding Indiana Jones
@redfullpack
Star Wars, ET , Jurassic Park and the late Chris Reeve's Superman too
