The Look of Love
Chris Botti feat. Sy Smith Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Is in your eyes
A look your smile can't
disguise
The look of love
Is saying so much more than
Just words could every say
Well it takes my breath away
[Chorus]
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
Baby be mine, tonight
Let this be just the start of
So many nights like this
Let's take a lovers vow
And seal it with a kiss
[Chorus]
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so
The look of love
Let this be just the start of
So many nights like this
Let's take a lover's vow
And baby we'll seal it with a kiss
[Chorus]

Sy Smith's voice is brilliant, sensational, and breathtaking. No one can compare with her interpretation for this song "The look of Love", especially at the very beginning. I heard it on PBS in 2011. In 2024, I am still overwhelmed by it.

Chris really presents a great performance, both the vocalists, band members, especially including Mark. Chris makes his trumpet talk as though it is another vocalist. Truly sensational!
@Bruingebak
Isn't she lovely? Isn't she beautiful? Isn't she musically talented? What an awesome performance!
@KutWrite
Yeah... I'd love to hear her with Stevie Wonder.
