9. The Look Of Love
Diana Krall Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The look of love
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
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away

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

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

The look of love is in your eyes
The look, your smile can't disguise
The look of love, it's saying so much more
Than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well it takes my breath away
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, is on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight

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, don't ever go, don't ever go

THE LOOK OF LOVE

The look of love
Is in your eyes
A look your smile can't disguise
The look of love
It's saying so much more than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard, well, it takes my breath away

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 that look of love

How long I have waited
Waited just to love you now that I have found you

Don't ever go
Don't ever go
Don't ever go

I'm typing on my wife of 53 years FB page as I listen to this. She's sleeping on the sofa after her chemo treatment--thankfully she's OK & has only 3 more treatments. After 53 yrs I still 'can hardly wait to hold her & feel my arms around her'

@VivienneHope

Beautiful song. You obviously have a special bond with your wife. Merry Christmas and all the best for your future life together.

@kennethfendley4122

Irene Harris Love this sultry alto voice. The girl’s got the goods.

@noiseintheoffice

May Irene be stronger than the monster. 53 years is a beautiful thing that not many get. And you still want to hold each other! That's the most beautiful part.
