He is someone who has never allowed commercialism to clip his wings, and who has always, for over 30 years, continued to open new musical frontiers.
Still searching, hungry, and outside conventional pathways, Frank Duval has long since escaped from the "golden cage" of show-business, and is again heading towards new artistic experiences.
Duval is the composer and virtuoso of sounds, who catered for "international highlights" with his albums, and has "often been copied", has remained settled, but musically, he remains out of reach. He has written a section of German television and pop-music history, which is, as yet, open ended, as we shall still hear from him and see him.
Born into an artists' family, he studied as an actor and dancer, but also sang with his sister, Maria. By the '60s, Duval was also composing music, both orchestral and pop, and his debut soundtrack, for an episode of the German serial Tatort, aired in 1977. From his 1979 debut "Die Schönsten Melodien Aus Derrick und der Alte", "Todesengel" became a moderate hit.
During the '80s, Frank Duval released several soundtracks, as well as proper artist albums (with occasional lyrical help from his wife, Kalina Maloyer). He hit the German charts several times, with 1983's "Ways," 1986's "Lovers Will Survive," and 1987's "When You Were Mine".
In addition, he wrote songs for the following artists: Ivan Rebroff, Alexandra, Karin Huebner, Margot Werner, Klaus Löwitsch and Maria Schell.
It Was Love
Frank Duval Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
A special formed light and a far away voice was talking to me:
Give me your love
Try to believe in feelings.
Give me your love
Try to believe in me.
Give me your love
Time has a special value
A moment of love that's eternity.
Give me your love
You'll find a door of glass and light
You'll open it
You'll leave the night
You'll never feel alone.
Give me your love
That's the sign for you to rise
Into a new dimension of life
Give me your love.
The woice strange and light faded away when dawn came
And left me behind with these words in the air:
Give me your love
You'll find a door of glass and light
The lyrics of Frank Duval's song "It Was Love" present a dreamlike experience with a spiritual message about finding love and belief in oneself. The song sets a mystical atmosphere, right from the beginning of the first verse, where the singer describes a strange sensation that he experienced as he woke up in the middle of the night, with a special formed light and a faraway voice speaking to him. The voice asks for his love and encourages him to believe in feelings, and in the singer himself.
The lyrics in the chorus continue with the meaning that time is of the essence when it comes to love, and a moment of true love is a moment of eternity. The voice in the singer's dream entices him to give his love, leading him towards a door of glass and light that he must open. Once he opens it, he shall never feel alone, and this will lead him to rise into a new dimension of life.
The song provides a message to search for the inner self and to open the door leading to spiritual growth. It encourages people not to fear love, to believe in themselves and their intuition, and to take risks to open doors previously unseen. The song “It Was Love" stands as a timeless example of golden age pop music with its invocation of otherworldly and spiritual elements.

Give me your love
I still hear the voice pleading for love.
You'll find a door of glass and light
And the path to the illuminated realm.

Sorrow
Now you're gone and I feel sorrow
Now you're gone and I feel love, love
Maybe love
Sorrow
Now you're gone and I feel sorrow
Now you're gone and I feel love, love
Maybe love
Silence
The room is filled with deadly silense
I'm longing for your touch your voice
I'm longing for your love
It was love
We didn't recognize
We were prisoners
Of conventions
It was love
All those silly lies
Covering our face
We will tear them down
Moments
They will return those happy moments
When I will feel your touch your smile
When I'll feel your love
Moments
They will return those happy moments
When I will feel your touch your smile
When I'll feel your love
It was love
We didn't recognize
We were prisoners
Of conventions
It was love
All those silly lies
Covering our face
We will tear them down

Вот где жизнь!!!
Вот где Любовь!! Вот где верность!!
Преданность и счастье!!

Сум
Зараз ти пішла, і я відчуваю смуток
Зараз ти пішла, і я відчуваю кохання, кохання
Можливо кохання
Тиша
Кімната сповнена мертвою тишею
Я дуже хочу твого дотику, твій голос
Я дуже хочу твого кохання.
Це була любов,
Ми її не впізнали
Ми були бранцями
умовностей.
це була любов
Всю ту дурну брехню,
Яку сховали наші обличчя,
Ми оплакуватимемо
Миті
Вони повернуться, ті щасливі моменти,
Коли я відчуватиму твій дотик, твою посмішку,
Коли я відчуватиму твоє кохання.
