Jennings, Waylon - Unchained Melody Lyrics






Oh my love my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God-speed your love
To me.

Lonely rivers flow to the sea, to the sea
To the open arms of the sea
Lonely rivers cry wait for me wait for me
I'll be coming home wait for me

Oh my love my darling
I've hungered for your touch
Such a long lonely time
Time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine
I need your love
I need your love
God-speed your love
To me.

  36. D.... F....

    This is a great performance, but listen to Angelina Jordan sing it.

  37. E.... l....

    The Righteous brothers did a great job on this BUT Waylon owns it now.

    Belle interprétation de Walong il chante pour Jessi leur amour était si profond très beau xxxxxxxx

  52. l.... s....

  54. M.... L....

    Tellement une belle voix chaude je l'adore triste qu'il soit parti mais c'est chansons font parties de mon quotidien

  55. D.... H....

    Love ya Waylon.. Listen to ya every day

  56. F.... W....

    iS THAT HIS WIFE IN THE VIDEO WITH HIM?????????????

  57. a.... s....

    Aside from the great Mr Cash, Waylon was my next favourite country singer, but this doesn't work for me. Even at his most gentle and vulnerable on songs like Amanda, he kept that authentic "outlaw" edge to his voice. This sounds almost like he was listening to the Righteous Bros in the cans as he was singing and got caught up in that sweet as syrup delivery they had. I'm not very interested in U2, but when they covered Unchained Melody they at least had a go at taking a great pop song and putting it in a contemporary setting that suited their sound and strengths. Waylon took a great pop song and pretty much slapped a cookie cutter down on it. With the chops he had, he could have lifted the tempo, put some steel guitar or even some slide on it, a little bass and maybe some brushes and made it a Waylon song. I'd have liked to hear that.

    a.... s....

    Spot on buddy. You know your music and I'd have admired hearing the song how you described.

    a.... s....

    I believe Waylon recorded this way before the outlaw movement.

    a.... s....

    Cash's problem is he couldn't carry a tune, nice voice though.

  58. B.... V....

    I would have loved to see a video singing this song, what a voice, Waylon could sing anything and make it the best.

  59. E.... F....

    Not bad at all. I think it may be a better cover than of "I'm on fire"

  60. K.... 0....

    Even better than Elvis!! I love the video, also! Waylon and Jessi were such a beautiful love story for 33 years, until he passed away. She must miss him terribly. RIP Waylon.

  61. J.... ....

    what a gorgeous song...done wel by the great waylong jennings...

  62. L.... S....

    what a song I love it much

  63. I.... F....

    Jimmy Young had a hit with this song in 1955......... It didn't sound this good though!

  64. m.... k....

    Excellent.

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

    what a song, what a singer!!!

  66. J.... ....

    Oh GOD... did not know he had the ability to do this gentle rock.......he is fantastic.. Loved Waylon like so many others.... <3 This is very 'special song to me'.. <3

  67. B.... V....

    The Righteous Brothers were always my favourites to sing this song, not anymore, Waylon by far is the greatest. Gosh I miss him.

    B.... V....

    Agreed Barb...I liked his "Bridge over troubled waters" too. Punch it in?

  68. J.... h....

    My husband Mitch and his dad Melray both in heaven loved Waylon's music. Amanda for our daughter Amanda born December 29,1982.we had been married 13 yrs. 1982 by Randy Travis. She was our blessing our miracle

  69. C.... 1....

    If you didn't tell us who was singing this song I would've never guessed it was Waylon

  85. A.... H....

    lord this man loved jessi, did the same myself with his help to a teen.

  86. R.... H....

    He was the best--at least as good as Johnny C.  Good thing he did not get on that playe with Buddy Holly and the Big Bopper.  

  87. W.... ....

    Elvis' version and this one are the two best. Long live Watasha.

    W.... ....

    @woodmaj Can't forget good ol Roy Orbison haha

    W.... ....

    +David Browning Yea Dave, ol Roy is still one of my all time favorites, ever since I heard Pretty Woman, I was hooked.

    W.... ....

    Hey, when you are a half decent singer and tackle a song like this and get it right well just became full decent, the Brothers Got Rightous whit this one.

  88. T.... J....

    I agree that no one owns this song like Waylon does.  "   He has been my favourite singer for the past 40+ years and he will always be.    I miss him so much.   What a voice on this song.
    Waylon could have sung any type of music.   I'm  so glad he chose Country though
