Where do I begin?
To tell the story of how great a love can be
The sweet love story that is older than the sea
The simple truth about the love he brings to me
Where do I start?
Like a summer rain
That cools the pavement with a patent leather shine
He came into my life and made the living fine
And gave a meaning to this empty world of mine
He fills my heart
He fills my heart with very special things
With angels' songs, with wild imaginings
He fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go, I'm never lonely
With him along, who could be lonely
I reach for his hand, it's always there
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say
I'm going to need him till the stars all burn away
And he'll be there
He fills my heart with very special things
With angels' songs, with wild imaginings
He fills my soul with so much love
That anywhere I go, I'm never lonely
With him along, who could be lonely
I reach for his hand, it's always there
How long does it last?
Can love be measured by the hours in a day?
I have no answers now, but this much I can say
I'm going to need him till the stars all burn away
And he'll be there
Rumba index | | Next song
(Where Do I Begin) Love Story
Artist: Shirley Bassey
Album: Shirley Bassey: Greatest Hits
Song Length: 3:16
George's Thoughts: This old classic from the motion picture "Love Story" makes a beautiful Rumba. To prove that the song doesn't age, the album includes a very nice modern remix with a strong Latin-style beat behind it that weighs in with a hefty time of 5:35 and is quite challenging to dance to, but can be a wonderful choice for a show dance.
Song Lyrics:
Dance: Rumba
Bars per Minute: 24
This song has complex tempo treatment that is best suited to experienced dancers or for show dance use.
Too slow for competition.
