America - That's All I've Got To Say Lyrics






[Lir:] I've had time to write a book
About the way you act and look
But I haven't got a paragraph
Words are always getting in my way
Anyway, I love you
That's all I have to tell you
That's all I've got to say

And now, I'd like to make a speech
About the love that touches each
But stumbling, I would make you laugh
I feel as though my tongue were made of clay
Anyway, I love you
That's all I have to tell you

I'm not a man of poetry
Music isn't one with me
It runs from me
It runs from me
[Duet]
[Lir:] And I tried to write a symphony
[Amalthea:] Once when I was searching
[Lir:] But I lost the melody
[Amalthea:] Somewhere out of reach
[Lir:] Alas I only finished half
[Amalthea:] Far away
[Lir:] And finish I suppose I never may
[Amalthea:] In a place I could not find
[Lir:] Anyway, I love you
[Amalthea:] Or heart obey
[Lir:] That's all I have to tell you
[Amalthea:] Now that I'm a woman
[Lir:] That's all I've got to say
[Amalthea:] Now I know the way
[Lir:] That's all I've got to say
[Amalthea:] Now I know the way
[Together:] That's all I've got to say

    Beautiful like Far Longer Than Forever!

    Who thinks the notes are pretty the same at 00:22 and with this tune at https://youtu.be/oR5rpFzaBaA?t=71 at the moment I put the link?

  5. N.... H....

    I hope someday Prince Lir and Lady Amalthea will get married!

  6. N.... H....

    This song has also become one of Plum’s favorite lullabies!

  7. N.... H....

    This song has now become one of my new favorite lullabies!

  8. N.... H....

    That song is so beautiful as Far Longer Than Forever!

  9. W.... A....

    I keep coming back to this....My favorite “cartoon” EVER it’s my childhood, and the music was so beautiful and haunting (just like the movie) 🦄 So beautiful

  10. t.... M....

    This song makes me cry that how much I miss my childhood herring this song.😢 I love it. And it's my Most favorite movie of all time!😂❤

  11. C.... B....

    The Orville did it...

  12. r.... ....

    I got “The Last Unicorn” VHS for my 5th birthday, now it’s almost 30 years later and I still own that copy. This song absolutely ruined me for love songs the rest of my life. I think no love song I’ve ever heard has ever matched up to how perfectly sweet and simple this song feels inside.

  13. m.... W....

    666=WWW

  14. M.... V....

    i am shocked they used this song from the Orville

  15. p.... ....

    Wtf is Orville?

  16. A.... L....

    The Last Unicorn was a great movie with a memorable soundtrack I saw it when I was a kid. I remembered it was the same song when I saw the Orville.

  17. B.... T....

    The Orville brought me here. What a fantastic episode!

  18. S.... W....

    I was looking for something else but I found this. I haven't seen this movie in soo long and the nostalgia hit me like a wave.

  19. P.... A....

    This is without a doubt the most beautiful song in the world!!!

  20. T.... M....

    yes, I spent an hour after the Orville saying "I know that song from some place in my childhood" then a quick search sent me here.

  21. C.... ....

    I’m sorry, but am I the only one who doesn’t like Prince Lir that much..? I never found his romance with Amalthea to be that interesting.

  22. L.... ....

    The Orville brought me here

  23. C.... W....

    Just watched this episode of orville (UK) love this great characters and episodes that have these moments with a great song but also a joke about WTF in text.

  24. D.... M....

    All I have to say is all us Prince Lirs usually have a very similar or familiar destiny like his. The love is never allowed to be realized for one reason or another. But that was one of the charms of this movie. Not everyone got the happy ending they desired but needed to have.

  25. M.... N....

    Admittedly, The Orville brought me here, as well. As soon as I heard the song playing I started singing along. 'The Last Unicorn' has always been one of my favorite movies, and I passed that legacy on top my children who both expressed "Now I want to watch 'The Last Unicorn'!" Thank you, Todd McFarland, for the nod back to my childhood.

  26. J.... R....

    Presenting me: that one person who hasn't watched Orville. :)

  27. S.... ....

    gonna go cry myself to sleep now... :(

  28. K.... t....

    Team Orville checking in.

  29. I.... O....

    Just watched the newest Episode of "The Orville", where Gordon falls in love with a simulated girl from the 21st century. There's a scene where she's singing a beautiful song in a bar, and I just couldn't remember where I've heard it before. So I just typed in some of the lyrics, and voila: It's from one of my favorite childhood movies, of course 😁

  30. L.... J....

    I hadn't watched this movie in decades. But hearing the song on the Orville brought me right back to the 80s. This movie had some amazing songs in it. I actually had a crush on the Unicorn at one point.

  31. a.... ....

    Leighton Meester on The Orville, anyone?

  32. l.... ....

    Who came here after watching the Orville?

    l.... ....

    So serious... 😆

  33. M.... S....

    Two of my favorite things, The Last Unicorn and The Orville!

    M.... S....

    I couldn't believe what I was watching!!! I thought I was the only human who knew this song. I love Seth even more now!

    M.... S....

    Best movie, best show. I love that others recognized this. 😁

    M.... S....

    I am in the middle of watching that Orville scene and was like "No! Can it be true? Where have you been? WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN!?!?! where were you ten years ago? 20 years ago? Where you when I was new? How dare you come to me now...when I am this. It;s alright, I forgive you, you're here now."

    M.... S....

    I saw that episode, and I recognized her song. I knew the song, it took me a minute to remember from what.

  34. S.... T....

    Having recently rewatched The last unicorn and then just watched The Orville I knew exactly where the song had come from, made me so happy.

    S.... T....

    Orville made me cry my eyes out! The Last Unicorn was my first tragedy as a little kid. So when they went up and sang the duet part of the tragic love song...I lost it. T~T Curse my love of tragedies, every song from this movie makes me cry.

    S.... T....

    Yeah, I had a yelling out loud "that's from the last unicorn!" moment in that episode:)

  35. T.... P....

    who is here from Orville?

  36. F.... A....

    Who else come after watching the Orville

    F.... A....

    Ding ding!

    F.... A....

    Yep... Heard this song on The Orville and wanted to see where it came from.. lol

    F.... A....

    I knew the song. THE LAST UNICORN my favorite childhood movie

  37. J.... M....

    I sing this my Son before he goes to sleep at night. It's the first song I sung to him while he was in the Intensive care when he was born, Neonatal unit I think...He is the truest love of my life! Mind you I exclude the Amalthea part...just saying.

  38. B.... ....

    the orville im crying

  39. C.... W....

    i actually own this on CD irl, i'm just wondering who's gonna come here after watching The Orville last night...

  40. w.... a....

    The latest episode of Orville brought me here.

    w.... a....

    Watch the movie show. It's a good one.

    w.... a....

    #metoo Am I using that correctly?

    w.... a....

    wow really ??? watch the f/ing movie

    w.... a....

    Amen brother

  41. D.... ....

    the Orville 💀

  42. m.... ....

    So, who is here from The Orville?


    I knew the song seemed familiar, awesome cover.

    m.... ....

    Right here! I am so glad I have DVR so I could rewind and listen again.

    m.... ....

    @thomas luhrs Here you go bro: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45DRw665EB8

    m.... ....

    I was stunned when I heard this on The Orville's Season 2 Episode 11. I played the Last Unicorn so many times for my children that I knew the song in a heart beat. Oddly, for such a beautiful song, it has not been covered by other artists.

    m.... ....

    First it was just a - hm I know that. Then kept watching. But again....where have I heard that....and again....well, here am I

  43. G.... N....

    The Orville brought me here :) never heard this song before and I love it!

    G.... N....

    me to. The Orville.

    G.... N....

    Me as well

    G.... N....

    LMAO, I heard the song on Orville and I was tearing out my hair thinking about where I'd heard it before. I love unicorns and this was one of the first movies featuring unicorns. When I figured it out I was floored they used this song!

  44. n.... ....

    she never spoke to him before and he *loves* her. what a bad message, looks are everything then i guess.

    n.... ....

    @neiljuice First, learn how to form a proper sentence and punctuate. Otherwise you come off as a moron. Second you haven't listed any fact about something you've never experienced. You keep stomping your feet and screaming "It's a crush! It's a crush!" Pathetic really.

    n.... ....

    @LawLibertyCompassion Justice i think the rest of the world would agree with me that the characters have no developed any relationship for they have not ever interacted before this song(not significantly), especially when you're pointing fingers and calling names because your argument is invalid and you made a mistake but it's too late to go back and acknowledge it. i sometimes too will get to a point where i realise i'm wrong, but i've been in the argument for far too long to turn around and say i'm wrong, but i still do even though it's humiliating. i'm not saying you have to, but you know in your head that i'm right. they have *not interacted properly* therefore could not possibly be *properly in love* with the *person* instead of their *looks*

    n.... ....

    @neiljuice No. The only mistake is yours, because you apparently can't conceive that there could be something more than your five senses. Here we are talking about an emotion. One not caused by extended exposure as a crush would be. But an instant flash of recognition. Something you have never experienced and apparently lack the capacity to imagine. Why are you even here?

    n.... ....

    ​@LawLibertyCompassion Justice well it appears that i'm talking more scientifically when you are talking in spiritual terms. too bad there is no magical bond between people or else i would say you're right.

    n.... ....

    @neiljuice Emotion isn't magic.

  45. D.... ....

    Bisexual culture was being in love with both Amalthea and Lir as a child!

    D.... ....

    I know 😢

  46. F.... b....

    This is one of the most beautiful love songs honestly . And the fact that his voice isn't perfect makes it more raw and real to me. He's not a singer. He's not a poet. But he sings and writes to her, just to get her to smile or even look at him. He goes out of his comfort zone to show her his love.

  47. T.... J....

    damn, get me every time. i love u L.

  48. T.... B....

    Everything about this song is so beautiful - the lyrics, the strange and bittersweet melody, the way Amalthea and Lir sing in harmony and complement each other's words, the way the song is a partial reprise of Now That I'm a Woman, the instrumentals, the innocent and loving sentiment, everything. There will never be another like it.

  49. F.... ....

    one of the most beautiful cartoon movies

  50. S.... A....

    Angelica Lansbury sounds a lot better in this song than the previous. It's so weird.

  51. M.... ....

    He's got a heavenly voice.

  52. A.... ....

    I'd love to waltz to this song... I always tell my fiance "I love you", because it's the best way I know to convey how I feel. That's all I have to tell you.. That's all I've got to say. <3

  53. T.... N....

    "The Dude" at his best.

  54. L.... G....

    Yes, the rest of us soft hearted guys are forgotten an lost in the shuffle because we don't want to cause trouble. We'll leave out the side door an let you get back to your handsome boyfriend who beats you up an you will forgive him an drop the charge after we protected you. In a few weeks we'll see you in court where he's bring charges against us for beating him up. Love sucks. You can keep your boyfriend an your screwed up existences. Freak. Thank You Loader. I meant you no disrespect, just wanted to get this off my chest.

  55. w.... d....

    i get that prince lir had good intentions, and he didn't know, but i can't help but feel angry that he tried to make her give up her mission all just because he had some crush.

    he convinced lady amalthea to give up on saving an entire species all because "hey i wanna date you"

    call me a terrible person, but that is my unfortunate point of view. however, i found it lovely that amalthea felt love, and that is simply beautiful.

    w.... d....

    How many people don't feel like listening to the heart when they fall in love? It takes a strong willingness to say no to that want when we know there is something more important that has to be done. I don' t think anyone really wants to let go of love when they find it. Just my view on it.

  56. F.... ....

    I feel like this song gives the answer to the ultimate question. Anyway, I love you - that's all I have to tell you, that's all I've got to say. - Now, I know the way..

  57. M.... ....

    This is so beautiful. I will always love the songs to this film. And wonder how long will it take until I get over the fact that she starts singing the other song "Now that I'm a woman" in the last part of this one, and it fits perfectly into each other. This is real art, it works on so many levels and you have to listen to it a couple of times before you grasp them all.

  58. J.... S....

    All I want is a love like that ♡

  59. K.... S....

    Dieser Film mit dieser so wunderschönen Musik verzaubert mich schon, seit ich ihn als Kind zum ersten Mal sah.
    Nicht nur die Melodien sind in ihrer Vielfalt und liebevollen Komposition einzigartig, sondern auch die Texte, die eine ungewöhnlich und zugleich sehr ausgewählte Wortwahl enthalten und dieses Märchen das Herz erweichen. Dankeschön für das Hochladen. So muss ich nicht immer die CD laufen lassen und kann es überall hören. 🙂

    K.... S....

    Katharina Schick also deine Worte beschrieben wirklich meine Gefühle bei dem Film ❤️ich finde ja das Ende wenn es weg läuft an herzergreifenden

  60. G.... G....

    This movie was my entire childhood. Still is. I absolutely adore this movie. I will pass it on to my kids.

  61. L.... E....

    THE NOSTALGIA IS KICKING IN-

    The Last Unicorn was my favorite movie when I was a smaller chaild.

    My sister thought it was creepy, and I agree some parts were but stilllllll.

  62. H.... ....

    I love how Almathea's song "Now that I'm a woman" merges with Prince Liir's song. Her song sounded sad until she fell in love with him and found a feeling she never knew before, for being so old and wise love really changed her as always happens.

  63. D.... ....

    More people should make more cover's of this song it's so beautiful

  64. v.... ....

    Don’t read “Two Hearts” if you want your heart broken more than it is now hearing this song.

  65. S.... S....

    This song speaks to me on the level.

  66. E.... K....

    'That's all I have to say' https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phkj5dFcCs0

  67. I.... G....

    Hands up if anyone here fell in love with Amalthea. When she was a Unicorn and a human. I know I did. AND I'M NOT ASHAMED.

    I.... G....

    Izzy Goggin im a girl and i freaking loved her

    I.... G....

    I had a crush on Lady Amalthea when i was 4 years old seeing this movie and dug her when i was a kid and a teen! her and Lee the playboy model bounty hunter alien from Critters 2 (remember her folks) were the sexiest transformed characters i've seen when i was a kid.

    Lady Amalthea easily rivals humanzied versions of the MLP ladies from fanarts in terms of humanized unicorns and she is on par with other fantasy beauties like Taarna from Heavy Metal, Red Sonja, Teegra from Fire and Ice, Leia from Star Wars and other fantasy beauties you have to admit.

    I.... G....

    I wont lie that was one of my childhood crushes

    I.... G....

    I didn't have a crush on the unicorn but always liked the design of Lady Amalthea and felt unicorns must come from Iscandar. Admit to crushing on Leader Desslok from Star Blazers which was on American tv a few years before The Last Unicorn came out, so, yeah, blue aliens for me. Not ashamed.☺️

  68. H.... J....

    I find it so cute he’s also adopted by king haggard from a poor family 😢its such a fairy tale story

  69. M.... P....

    I LOVE THIS SONG

  70. n.... m....

    In memory for the best dog in the world, she was the best friend I ever had and she´l stay in my heart forever......

  71. W.... A....

    I feel dumb for admitting this but I'm crying right now! This was my *favorite* movie as a little kid and I still watch it from time to time. It's one of the few cartoons I've seen that is actually really dramatic, very deep and beautiful with more grown up like themes. Anyway, this song and the way they sang it together was beautiful

    W.... A....

    What about Beauty and the Beast or Ghibli?

    W.... A....

    Johnlindsey289 Those movies are good but not nearly as special as The Last Unicorn

  72. R.... N....

    The Dude can sing. Who knew

  73. s.... p....

    Thank you for posting ^^ I looked a long time for the song

  74. T.... T....

    Everybody found it romantic, but for me, I hated the prince as a kid. He only deterred her from her mission. But a part of me found it beautiful she learned human emotions.

    T.... T....

    thank god I'm not the only one

    T.... T....

    I didn’t like the prince as a kid either. But as an adult, I sympathize with him. Plus it adds more conflict to the story and makes it bittersweet in the end when the Unicorn completes her mission.

    T.... T....

    "Trauma Tize" lol. Sorry, I just loved that name

    T.... T....

    I agree with you, but on the other hand, he didn't know she was on a mission or a unicorn. He thought she was just a lonely woman and he fell in love with her.

  75. B.... J....

    This part brings me to tears every time.
    There is something so precious and honest about how this song says "I love you.
    " Anyway I love you. That's all I have to tell you. That's all I've got say. "
    This is what love is to me. When there is nothing more to say than I love you. When you are so broken down, to your core being, by your love for someone, that there is nothing more to say than this...
    Just beautiful. Brings me to tears

    B.... J....

    And what do you think of the quote "Unicorn, mermaid, sorceress, vampire, gargoyle, werewolf, elf...no name you give her would surprise or frighten me...i love whom i love" which is one of my fave quotes ever

    B.... J....

    I love how you described the essence of this song. Beautiful words :)

  76. S.... J....

    Brings tears to my eyes

  77. J.... S....

    such a beautiful song from a heartwrenching movie. I always see him writing those lyrics, slaying the beast and trying to win her love. Gorgeous

    J.... S....

    Yeh i always felt sorry for poor Lir

  78. J.... D....

    Another Touching & Special Masterpiece from the Brilliant Mind of Jimmy Webb

    J.... D....

    He also did a few Tales from the Crypt episodes

  79. S.... D....

    Love this movie!! Me and my Gramma used to watch it all the time!!

  80. P.... K....

    That moment when you realize this song was sung by The Big Lebowski

    P.... K....

    Punky Kitty how funny... it is Jeff bridge's

    P.... K....

    The Dude's in love.

    P.... K....

    Who is that

    P.... K....

    If Tony Stark were in that cave he could've defeated the Red Bull with a box of scraps.

    P.... K....

    I thought Jeff Bridges only sung the song version that played in the film (same as Mia Farrow), but that 2 other singers did the CD version (this one)?

  81. H.... T....

    all the bronies and Pegasisters should watch this movie, it's so beautiful

    H.... T....

    @Johnlindsey289 both

    H.... T....

    Damned right and wasn't 1982 a great year for movies?

    H.... T....

    @Johnlindsey289 like?

    H.... T....

    @Haruka Takahashi
    I mean it was my birth year and you had so many instant classics like ET, Blade Runner, The Thing, Poltergeist, Creepshow, Star Trek 2 The Wrath of Khan, Conan the Barbarian, Rocky III, First Blood, The Dark Crystal, The last Unicorn, The Secret of NIMH, The Flight of Dragons, Tron and so much more.

    H.... T....

    @Johnlindsey289 I haven'y seen some of these

  82. L.... R....

    hermoso

  83. 1.... ....

    By the way, I too love this song and this movie.

  84. 1.... ....

    What a wonderful expression of two divergent perceptions of reality. So similar to being in love...

  85. m.... ....

    i live in Austria and it's on tv every year at christmas. and i watch it everytime. it's one of a hanful of movies that make me cry

    m.... ....

    It's just so pure and innocent

    m.... ....

    Das mach ich auch jedes Jahr zu Weihnachten. Ist ne Art Familientradition bei uns.
    I live in Austria and I watch this movie every year at Christmas with my family.

    m.... ....

    @6Kubik Ich weiß es ist ein bisschen spät, aber auf welchem kanal? Denn ich habe es noch nie gesehen....

    m.... ....

    @Lea von der Lieth rtl2

    m.... ....

    @6Kubik danke (ok so ne schnelle Antwort hätte ich nicht erwartet xD)

  86. B.... J....

    thank you...

  87. T.... m....

    QWQ so cute

  88. S.... ....

    I like Prince Lir. He doesn't mind coming out and saying all his feelings even though it's a hard thing for people to do. And he's so kind and sweet, bless his heart.

    S.... ....

    I felt bad for him at the end always

    S.... ....

    That's "The Dude" singing.

    S.... ....

    I think the adjective I know to describe Prince Lir most accurately is, 'guileless' which is probably what most folks, including myself, find appealing about Lir as both a soldier and ruler, not to mention as a man (i imagine that has to be appealing to women, so wthe idea of a guileless woman is appealing to me as a male). Honesty is attractive and guilelessness is the overall application of honesty in every aspect of one's life. Thumbs up!

  89. M.... S....

    I just watched this movie for the first time never hearing about it before.
    So amazing and well done. And I just love this song.

  90. S.... T....

    You will now notice that nobody will ever love you as much as this prince loved that unicorn.

    S.... T....

    Exactly!

    S.... T....

    Exactly!

    S.... T....

    Yup and is a humanized unicorn no different than a mermaid, a gargoyle, a vampire, a sorceress or elf? afterall in some stories princes do fall in love with mermaids, vampires, gargoyles, sorceresses and elves too or sometimes werewolves or creature ladies.

    Would Prince Lir dig Equestria Girls Rarity or Equestria Girls Celestia in terms of humanized unicorns? he was the first brony you know

    S.... T....

    Scratchy Towel you mean, Lady Amalthea.

    S.... T....

    Disagree, it's more complicated! It may often happen that a man loves a girl like this, but he's not her type. At the end of the day, both sexes are choosy and don't just take the next best that loves them like crazy but someone they also find likeable themselves.

  91. S.... W....

    Ich liebe das Duett schmacht

    S.... W....

    @Stefanie Weber me too :)

  92. S.... G....

    This is one of the most heartfelt and one of my favorite love songs

  93. M.... F....

    Jeff Bridges only singing role ☺ I really am impressed that the voice actors were willing to sing the songs. The lyrics and the mildly off key performance really match the innocent and simple Lyr.

    M.... F....

    He sang in Crazy Heart.

    M.... F....

    Matthew fry; Jeff and I share the same birth Day, and I'm very honored to share a birthday with this man. I'm a big fan of Jeff Bridges I would also like top add that he also sang a song in R.I.P.D. If you haven't seen That one yet, I suggest that you do. ;-)

  94. C.... ....

    Surely I'm not the only one who hears two particular 'Inquisitors' singing in this song.

    C.... ....

    As in Dragon Age?
    If you are, don't bring Solas into this, this song is heart breaking enough..

    C.... ....

    I'm thinking Cullen

  95. J.... ....

    anyway I love you...forever and always my love

  96. N.... ....

    One of my all-time favorite love songs!

    To think this great movie started off as a great book by Peter S Beagle

    D.... ....

    @nightswimmer99 Yeah it made no sense how The Unicorn saved a dog but not Lir on his deathbed.

    D.... ....

    I am thinking about writing my own continuation of the Last Unicorn that has some elements of Two Hearts but is more expanded. If you like I can tell you about it via PM.

    D.... ....

    It was a story about mortality, essentially. If you don't like Lir's end you probably didn't understand that.

    D.... ....

    It still makes no sense. Why would she save a dog but not Lir if it was truly about mortality then both would have died as nothing except the Deathless ones escape Thanatos's grasp. However since she saved the dog it would have only made sense that she saved Lir as well.

    D.... ....

    @Maria Avalon “Whatever can die is beautiful — more beautiful than a unicorn, who lives forever, and who is the most beautiful creature in the world. Do you understand me?”
    ― Peter S. Beagle, The Last Unicorn

    Think that about sums it up. XD

  98. T.... ....

    Oh, Prince Lear...You poor thing.

    T.... ....

    TryMyMartini I agree, and it's spelled Lír.

  99. p.... a....

    ♥ this movie, lastima que ya no hacen películas como estas :'( y que no hicieron pelicula la 2da parte del libro
