Love Of My Life

Queen · Queen 40 Limited Edition Collector's Box Set [2011]

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

You taken 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 flown 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



Back, hurry back

Please bring it back home to me

Because you don't know what it means to me

Love of my life

Love of my life

Love Of My Life

Released in 1974 on the landmark album A Night At The Opera, "Love Of My Life" stands as a quintessential example of progressive rock and hard rock. Written by Freddie Mercury and co-produced by Roy Thomas Baker, the track features a distinctive opening piano riff that sets the tone for its soaring vocals and driving rhythm section. The song explores themes of romantic devotion and the complexities of love, delivered with a theatrical flair characteristic of Queen's stage performances. It remains one of the band's most recognizable compositions, frequently performed live and celebrated for its melodic structure and emotional depth within the broader canon of rock music.
