From Album A Night at the Opera (1975)
“Love of My Life“ was written for Mercury’s girlfriend at the time, Mary Austin, and is one of his most covered songs (there have been versions by many acts like Extreme featuring May, Scorpions and Elaine Paige). Mercury played piano (including a classical solo) and did all of the vocals with startling multi-tracking precision. May played harp (doing it chord by chord and pasting the takes to form the entire part), Gibson Hummingbird acoustic guitar (which he’d bought in Japan) and his Red Special.
“Love of My Life“ was such a concert favourite that Mercury frequently stopped singing and allowed the audience to take over. It was especially well received during concerts in South America, and the band released the song as a single there. When Queen and Paul Rodgers performed the song (specifically Brian solo) he sang almost none of the words and let the audience sing it all, continuing the tradition. (Wikipedia)
Love of my life, you hurt me,
You broken my heart, now you leave me.
Love of my life cant you see,
Bring it back bring it back,
Dont take it away from me,
Because you dont know what it means to me.
Love of my life dont leave me,
Youve stolen my love now desert me,
Love of my life cant you see,
Bring it back bring it back,
Dont take it away from me,
Because you dont know what it means to me.
You will remember when this is blown over,
And everythings all by the way,
When I grow older,
I will be there by your side,
To remind how I still love you
I still love you.
Hurry back hurry back,
Dont take it away from me,
Because you dont know what it means to me.
Love of my life,
Love of my life.
