The Love Theme
Hans Zimmer & Harry Gregson-Williams Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When chains are torn by courage born of a love that's free
A time when dreams so long denied
Can flourish as we unveil the love we now must hide
A time for us at last to see
A life worthwhile for you and me
We will endure as we pass surely through every storm
A time for us some day there'll be a new world
A world of shining hope for you and me
A time for us at last to see
A life worthwhile for you and me
And with our love through tears and thorns
We will endure as we pass surely through every storm
A time for us some day there'll be a new world
A world of shining hope for you and me
