Love Changes Everything

Lyrics

Love, love changes everything: hands and faces, earth and sky.
Love, love changes everything: how you live and how you die.
Love can make the summer fly, or a night seem like a lifetime.
Yes, love, love changes everything, now I tremble at your name.
Nothing in the world will ever be the same.
Love, love changes everything: days are longer, words mean more.
Love, love change everything: pain is deeper than before.
Love will turn your world around, and that world will last forever.
Yes, love, love changes everythng, brings you glory, brings you shame.
Nothing in the world will ever be the same.
Off into the world we go, planning futures, shaping years.
Love bursts in and suddenly all our wisdom disappears.
Love makes fools of everyone: all the rules we make are broken.
Yes, love, love changes everything: live or perish, in its flame.
Love will never ever let you be the same.Love will never ever let you be the same.

場刊中對這首歌的註解是這樣寫的:「愛情使人快樂,亦令人沮喪。對愛慕了女主角已十七年的亞歷士而言,世上汲有任何事物能比得上愛情;痛苦的是,愛人已把他置之不理。回憶起過去的日子,亞歷士悲從中來,淚眼裡只看到往日歡欣的情景。」其實場刊所寫的,正是《Aspect of Love》中開場的一段情節。而這首歌亦是這套音樂劇的序幕曲。

喜歡的人這分鐘將你帶到天堂,下一秒就面不改容地將你打進地獄。他面不改容不是因為他心狠手辣,只是他亦不曾為意自己的影響。這正是令人咬牙切齒的地方。因為你連怪責對方的地方也沒有。

附上Sarah Brightman的版本。
