"Love Of My Life"
Love of my life, you've hurt me,
You've broken my heart and now you leave me.
Love of my life can't you see,
Bring it back, bring it back,
Don't take it away from me because you don't know what it means to me.
Love of my life, don't leave me,
[Album version:] You've taken my love, you now desert me,
[Live version:] You've stolen my love, you now desert me,
Love of my life, can't you see?
Bring it back, bring it back,
Don't take it away from me because you don't know what it means to me.
You will remember
When this is blown over
And everything's all by the way
When I grow older
I will be there at your side to remind you how I still love you, I still love you.
[Album version:] Back, hurry back,
[Live version:] Hurry back, hurry back,
[Album version:] Please, bring it back home to me because you don't know what it means to me.
[Live version:] Don't take it away from me, because you don't know what it means to me -
Love of my life
Love of my life...
DYK:
This song was written by Freddie Mercury on the piano and guitar first. Brian May added some guitar sequences afterwards. Mercury was inspired by Mary Austin with whom he had a long-term relationship.
The tune instantly became a fan favorite and was played at nearly every Queen concert. Mercury would often stop singing and allow the crowd to carry on the tune.
The version of this song from Queen's live album "Live Killers" reached number one in the singles chart in Argentina and Brazil. It stayed in the charts in Argentina for a year in 1981.
Since Freddie Mercury's death in 1991, Brian May often sings vocals on the song on concerts. The crowd usually sings a huge part of the song which sometimes makes May to get emotional.
