Made You
John Barry And His Orchestra Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You made me love you
I didn't want to do it
I didn't want to do it
You made me want you
And all the time you knew it
I guess you always knew it

You made me happy sometimes
You made me glad
But there were times
You made me feel so bad

You made me cry for
I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to tell you
I want some love that's true
Yes, I do, 'deed I do
You know I do

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I cry for
You know you've got the brand of kisses
That I'd die for
You know you made me love you

You made me cry for
I didn't want to tell you
I didn't want to tell you
I want some love that's true
Yes, I do, 'deed I do
You know I do

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme what I cry for
You know you've got the brand of kisses




That I'd die for
You know you made me love you

Oh this makes me close my eyes and dream of my husband... he's gone 19 years... if only I could go back in time even for one more day.... just one more day 💜

@thepub245

@@derekkess4103 I would hardly have thought so but it is obviously a piece of music that brings an emotional response out in the lady for someone she obviously loves and misses very dearly. Asking her if it is her favourite song is a bit crass in my opinion.

@marisamontenegro8224

So, close your eyes and remember him, he will always be close to you...❤️✨

I'm a 49 year old man. Single, never married, no children. I love this movie and especially this song. My beautiful cats and dogs who have been my guardian angels my whole life fill my heart with a thousand loves. When I listen to this music I feel my love transcend to Heaven for them and God to feel and understand. It opens my heart and sole so that I can properly thank everyone for caring for me so deeply. To God, Jesus, the Holy Spirit, all my pets who have passed and the ones still here with me please feel my love and gratitude soar to Heaven and back. My tears are tears of joy for having known each of you. THANK YOU!!!!

I saw my best friend of 11 yrs for the last time 2yrs ago this month. I miss him as much as his family misses him. I read "Somewhere In Time" falling in love with the thought of undying love. I watched the movie from the first time that it was televised and every year since. I never get tired of it. Dan u are missed Rest in Peace my darling. We had no or children or pets but we had each other that was enough.

This music has the same effect on me. I also am alone, I saw the movie the day it was released and it with the music has had a profound effect on my life. To this day, 39 years later it remains my favourite and most loved movie and music. It brings tears to my eyes still today. I guess it always will.

@donwilcox3928

@@rda4265 I can tell you have a kind heart. Keep up the good work. I would recommend getting a shelter cat, maybe a adult cat who needs a second chance. You'll receive unconditional love, I promise and even the cranky ones will come around eventually. Good luck my "somewhere in time" co-fan.
