Ray Conniff;Billy Butterfield Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The time has come, let us begin
With all our voices joining in
To sing of love and brotherhood
People doing what they should to
Help there fellow man decree
And fill this land with harmony
The young and old, the rich, the poor
Making sounds, never heard before

Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony
Sing away the hurt and fear
A great new dream will soon be here

Like the shepherd guards his sheep
Watch your children as they sleep
Like the potter turns his clay

Help to shape a better day, and
Let us sing a song of love
There's one thing I'm certain of
Love will fill the hearts of men
Peace will come on earth once again

Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony
Sing away the hurt and fear
A great new dream will soon be here

Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony
Sing of love, and brotherhood
And people doing what they should





Harmony! Harmony!
Let's all join in harmony

Músicos maravilhosos...musica feliz... e pensar que naquele tempo não haviam recursos eletrônicos, os músicos entravam no estudio e "punham pra quebrar" não havia edição. Deixo aqui minhas gratas e sinceras homenagens ao Magnífico Ray Conniff e ao maravilhoso Billy Butterfield. Parabéns pela postagem, obrigado por compartilhar conosco.

Eu tinha 12 anos quando essa música era "o sucesso" nas paradas das rádios. Bastava que ela começasse a tocar e eu começava a chorar, tamanha era a emoção que me invadia. Hoje eu não choro (rsrs...), Mas me emociono sobremaneira. Obrigada pelo post. Thanks for the post!

Billy Butterfield foi um excelente trumpet, um belo timbre metálico. Boa noite a todos! Boa noite Carmen Amiel.

@marildamag

Estou chorando...meu Deus que saudade! Que amor...que romance! Que saudade do meu amor! Ficou tudo na poeira! De qualquer forma, parabéns a estes grandes músicos que, até hoje, com aquela interpretação, ainda conseguem me arrancar lágrimas e fazer trazer do passado recordações tão gostosas de serem lembradas. Amo vcs Ray Connif e Bily Butterfield!

Saudosos anos 60, faziamos os nossos "bailinhos" no salão do Julinho Zanoni ao som de Ray Connif, especialmente esta musica "Beyond The Blue Horizont" que foi a primeira musica que tirei a Bernadette para dançar e a pedi em namoro. Grande paixão da minha vida. Grato Luiz por essas lindas lembranças.

Nos anos 60, meu irmão mais velho comprou esse disco, mais tarde, anos 90, comprei um LP, depois o CD que tenho até hoje. Música maravilhosa, com a internet nos permite ouvir as inúmeras versões, mas essa com Billy Butterfield, é a mais vibrante.
