Sound Of Your Name ((French Version: Ton Nom (Charles Aznavour)) Composer(s): Herbert Kretzmer - Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour & Liza Minnelli
The sound of your name comes to me any hour On the wings of the wind, like the scent of a flower How can I explain its impossible power The sound of your name
The sound of your name is a valentine greeting A dare when it rings and a heart when it's beating And alone in a cell where all things keep repeating The sound of your name
Your name is a song that I long to be writing The music is strong and the words are inviting Exchangeable melodies, strangely exciting I found in your name
The sound of your name can bring times of desire That flares like a plane as it climbs ever higher That burns in my senses and turns then to fire The sound of your name
But love is a game that can't easily change The players discover the risk and the dangers We started as lovers, we ended as strangers Now where can I turn
Your name is the ghost of a chance that you gave me That original day, just enough when plainly And only my grief, what is there that can tame me If you don't return
As night in my dreams you are there, an obsession I whisper your name, I expel a confession You've entered my soul and you've taken possession And who can I blame
For you are the heaven on earth that I sigh for The high unattainable moon that I cry for As long as I live, I will live and I'll die for The sound of your name
