Can't Hear the Music?

Unchained Melody
(lyrics written by Hy Zarat)




Lyrics by Hy Zaret, Music by Alex North
Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungered for your touch
a long, lonely time.
And time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much,
are you still mine?
I need your love,
I need your love,
God speed your love ..... to me!

Lonely rivers flow
to the sea, to the sea,
To the open arms of the sea.
Lonely rivers sigh,
"Wait for me, wait for me!"
I'll be coming home, wait for me!

Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungered, for your touch
a long, lonely time.
And time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much,
are you still mine?
I need your love
I need your love,
God speed your love...... to me!

Additional verse:
Lonely mountains gaze
at the stars, at the stars,
Waiting for the dawn of the day.
All alone, I gaze
at the stars, at the stars,
Dreaming of my love far away.

Oh, my love, my darling,
I've hungered for your touch
a long, lonely time.
And time goes by so slowly
and time can do so much,
are you still mine?
I need your love,
I need your love,
God speed your love to me!
