Topic: Love at First Sight

Came up with this this morning thinking about the first night I ever spent with my wife (of 36 years).

Love At First Sight by Jim Kenyon


Verse 1




[G]My heart is burning, can you [Em]feel the flame


[C]every time you touch me and [D]say my name


[G]Each kiss and touch makes me [Em]love you more


I [Am]swear I’ve never felt this [D]way before [D]




[G][Em] [C][D]


.


Verse 2




[G]Love’s one desire is to [Em]join two hearts


[C]It doesn’t matter how that [D ]fire starts


[G]give your love freely and [Em] have no fears


And [Am]let happiness roll [D] through the years [D]




.



Chorus


[C]Do you believe in love at first sight ?


[G]Can there be magic in just one night ?


[C]Is it destiny, the fate of souls ?


[Am]You never know what [D]love controls




[C]Do you believe in love at first sight ?


[G]Is there magic in the air tonight ?


[C]Is this how it’s supposed to feel


[Am]Is this love and [C]baby is it [G]real ?



[Am]Is this love and [C]baby is it [G]real ?


.


Verse 3




[G]How am I to know what [Em]tonight’s begun


[C]When one heart is both and [D]bothare one


[G] I want to hold you close, and [Em]make you mine


I’ll [Am] love you tonight, and [D]for all time [D]







.


Chorus


[C]Do you believe in love at first sight ?


[G]Can there be magic in just one night ?


[C]Is it destiny, the fate of souls ?


[Am]You never know what [D]love controls




[C]Do you believe in love at first sight ?


[G]Is there magic in the air tonight ?


[C]Is this how it’s supposed to feel


[Am]Is this love and [C]baby is it [G]real ?




[Am]Is this love and [C]baby is it [G]real ?


slower


[Am]oh I think this is love and [C] baby I'm sure it's [G]real

Re: Love at First Sight

Happy new year Jim, I see you've started the new year in great form. I've sung it over in my mind and it works well, I love the sentiments cos you're describing how Ann and I met and fell in love 40 years ago, and still are I hasten to add.

Great song my friend, I will give it a go when I have time.

Re: Love at First Sight

Thank you fellas !

It's a doo wop throwback love song from  the fifties I think. smile
It has a nice sound to it when I play through it - too bad that when I add my singing it doesn't go too well  sad   

ps = if anyone wants to see a great show about the development of music in the early sixties - go to NETFLIX and watch  " Echo in the Canyon"  - it is really,really good !
