The mood is right for living, ooh I can't wait
I've waited so long to be with you this special way
Don't be afraid, afraid to stay
And share your love with me this way
I understand baby it's your very first time
I'll be gentle with you baby, it's gonna be alright
I'll be good to you baby, sweet to you lady
Guess what we're gonna be tonight
[Chorus:]
Lovers
Baby, let me be your lover
Lovers
Let me be the only one

Baby let me be your lover

Let me be the one
Don't let your thoughts get in the way
The time is right for love, it's not too late
The feeling's so strong to be as one this special way
Just take my hand, I'll lead the way
I need you so much, baby won't you stay
I understand baby it's your very first time
I'll be gentle with you baby, it's gonna be alright
And so if we're gonna be together tonight
I'll be good to you baby, sweet to you lady
Guess what we're gonna be tonight

I want to hold you
I want to touch you
I want to squeeze you
I'll never tease you
Hold you tight all through the night
I'm gonna make you feel alright

LOVERS ❤️
There was a field in my old town
Where we always played hand in hand
The wind was gently touching the grass
We were so young so fearless
Then I dreamt over and over
Of you holding me tight under the stars
I made a promise to my dear Lord
I will love you forever
Time has passed
So much has changed
But the field remains in my heart
Oh, where are you?
I need to tell you I still love you
So I reach out for you
You fly around me like a butterfly
Your voice still echoes in my heart
You are my true love
There was a field in my old town
Where in spring all flowers blossomed wide
We were chasing butterflies
Hand in hand 'till close of day.
Your voice still echoes in my heart ❤️

This was the movie that really launched Chinese epic marshal arts and tragic love stories cinema. This brilliant performance and song ended it. But when I saw Jackie Evancho and David Foster perform this same song live, I had to admit they might even have done it even better.

Tragic love stories have a way of playing with emotions. the nostalgia it creates though is profound
