Aldrich studied at the Guildhall School of Music in London and played and arranged for the RAF Dance Orchestra during World War Two. After the war, he remained associated with the group as it mutated into "The Squadronaires" and became one of the most popular groups in England. Aldrich eventually became the band's leader and conductor, and stayed in that role until the group dissolved in 1964. He also worked as musical director for Thames Television.

Aldrich's albums are usually pretty , easy listening,but if you haven't heard one, it's worth spending up to three bucks to own your own little bit of authentic 60s experience. Not the Haight-Ashbury-Woodstock-Jimi Hendrix kind of experience, but the experience most people had. What he produced entertained millions, although obviously not cutting edge music. Put on Ronnie's take on "Music to Watch Girls By" and you can imagine yourself strolling down the aisle at the A&P or shopping for school clothes at J.C. Penney. Or riding an elevator to your dad's office. Or waiting at the Omaha Airport. Who needs Eastern philosophy to get blissed out?

Born at Erith , Kent, U K, 15th February 1916, educated in Folkestone and proved musically talented as he learnt to play the piano aged only 3 !!! After his musical career he retired to the Isle of Man, where he died, from prostate cancer, aged 77, on the 30th September 1993.

I Wish You Love
Ronnie Aldrich Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream
Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain
Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head
And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread
I think I love you (I think I love you)

This morning I woke up with this feeling
I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself

I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room
I think I love you (I think I love you)

I think I love you so what am I so afraid of
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for

I think I love you isn't that what life is made of
Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way

I don't know what I'm up against
I don't know what it's all about
I got so much to think about

Hey, I think I love you so what am I so afraid of
I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for

I think I love you isn't that what life is made of
Though it worries me to say I never felt this way

Believe me you really don't have to worry
I only wanna make you happy and if you say "hey go away" I will
But I think better still I'd better stay around and love you
Do you think I have a case let me ask you to your face
Do you think you love me?

I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you
I think I love you

I think I love you
I think I love you

Line by Line Meaning

I was sleeping and right in the middle of a good dream
I was fast asleep, having a pleasant dream

Like all at once I wake up from something that keeps knocking at my brain
Suddenly, something was bothering me and I woke up from my dream

Before I go insane I hold my pillow to my head
In order to prevent myself from going crazy, I hold my pillow tightly against my head

And spring up in my bed screaming out the words I dread
I jump out of bed and yell the words that scare me

I think I love you (I think I love you)
I believe that I am in love with you

This morning I woke up with this feeling
When I woke up this morning, I had this unusual feeling within me

I didn't know how to deal with and so I just decided to myself
I didn't know how to handle this feeling, so I decided to keep it to myself

I'd hide it to myself and never talk about it
I chose to keep my emotions to myself and never discuss them with anyone

And did not go and shout it when you walked into the room
I didn't shout out my emotions when I saw you walking into the room

I think I love you (I think I love you)
I truly believe that I am in love with you

I think I love you so what am I so afraid of
I'm scared about the fact that I'm really in love with you

I'm afraid that I'm not sure of a love there is no cure for
I'm worried that I'm unsure of a love that cannot be remedied

I think I love you isn't that what life is made of
Isn't love an essential part of everyone's life?

Though it worries me to say that I never felt this way
Even though I'm uneasy to admit it, I've never felt this way before

I don't know what I'm up against
I'm uncertain about what I'm facing

I don't know what it's all about
I'm not fully aware of what's going on

I got so much to think about
I have a lot to contemplate

Hey, I think I love you so what am I so afraid of
I just realized that I might be in love with you, but I'm unsure of what to do

Believe me you really don't have to worry
You don't have to be concerned that I'm in love with you

I only wanna make you happy and if you say "hey go away" I will
All I want is to make you happy, and if you want me to leave, I will

But I think better still I'd better stay around and love you
However, it's better if I stay and continue to love you

Do you think I have a case let me ask you to your face
Do you think that I stand a chance? Let me ask you directly

Do you think you love me?
Do you believe that you love me?

I think I love you
I'm certain that I am in love with you
