Flack, Roberta - Making Love Lyrics
Here close to our feelings
We touch again
We love again
Remember when we thought
Our hearts would never mend
There's more to love I know
Than making love
Here no more confusion
We see our lives
We live our lives
Remember when we thought
We never would survive
But now neither one of us is breaking
There's more to love I know
Than making love
Some things never change
Some things sometimes do
[Instrumental Interlude]
And now I'm feeling strong enough to let you in
And now neither one of us is breaking
Knowing now there's more to love
Than making love
And I'll remember you and making love
And I'll remember you
And I'll remember you
And I'll remember you
And I'll remember you

Flack, Roberta Making Love Comments
I was just reading an old journal with an entry from May 13th 1988 and I mentioned the song to myself in the journal and I realized I have not heard this song since then, so here I am and it sounds as good as it always has
Some songs have a way of transporting you through space and time...
OMG this is a staple in my childhood and I couldn't remember anything about it except the harmony ! I knew it must of been Roberta flak that unmistakable voice! Thanks for sharing I totally balled my eyes out
Love the movie love the song the movie was ahead of its time
The movie to this song was controversial for its time. I never saw the movie through. However, I did hear that Kate Jackson and Michael Ontkean did an excellent job at playing their respective roles in the film. In any event, there's nothing controversial about the song itself. Nobody could have sung this song better than Roberta Flack. I was a teenage kid back when this song was all over the radio dial, and it brings back memories of the summer of 1982. I give it a thumbs-up. :-)
OMG. This is a really beautiful song.
Intimately Yours
Written By: Kelli Elaine?
Intimate Conversations
Mental masturbation
Though quite stimulating
CunningLinguistic pro
Trying to get ahead in my bed
Fellatio
Philosophical
Go getter
Story teller
I know you well
I know me better
It starts slow
A smile here
A kind gesture there
Before you know it
Late night words
Spoken
Pillow talk, evoking
Slow, sweet and sensual
Are the thoughts that internalize
You just know he's got to see the desire in your eyes
The tension is palpable
Intentions mused
She's confused
She loves time spent
But can't be sure
If what's happening is meant
To be
Reality
What are we doing here
I'm grown
I'm aware
Feelings getting in the way is what
I fear
It's all or nothing
Always has been
Can't be a lover
Without first being a friend
In doing so
The story is over
Before it begins
Intimacy
Desire
Stroking that fire
Watching your lips
Needing to feel your hands on my hips
I'm not good at games
A novice, if you will
You're looking in the wrong direction
If all you need is a release for your massive erection
I could put my feelings on the shelf
But I've never been one to play myself
Games Games and more Games to be played
You should have come with instructions
Thought it was more
But no, we were just two people fucking......
Bed games
Became
Head games
To think,
I did things to you and with you
I never thought I'd do
To know I would be with you intimately,
I would anticipate
Shit, couldn't wait
But for all my efforts
Being disregarded
Should've just had a V8
I shouldn't have come over
I shouldn't have stayed
I lost myself in a moment in time
Looking for
Seeing something that wasn't there
Shit, I wear glasses but when it comes to shit like this
I may as well be blind
Time is too precious
To be played with and playing around
Intimacy is too delicate
Things shared so privately
From you I want to flee
But that shit you do so well
You did that shit to me
It wasn't the sex
That's just gravy
I opened up and shared
Like never before
To have a trust like that broken
But it's cool, it's okay
I don't get even
I don't keep score
Never request
From another
What you're not willing to give in return
Trust, is an honor
And with me It must be earned
I am just a woman
Just like any other woman
But if games are what's on the menu
You've got another thing coming
Check please
I am no mystery
I'll give you a clue
The friendship
The connection
Whatever it may be Is history
No matter what you do
Never value one more than they value you
Intimate friends
Maybe, once
As we mature
And look at our lives
We must grow up
What I see
What I had hoped
Well, was just a dream
Because people wear masks
Things aren't always as they seem
Looks like we've run our course
Lack of care On your behalf
Now mine
Out of sight
Out of mind
No time to waste
I've lost my taste
What a fucking waste
I'll bow out gracefully
No need to try
All that's needed is a simple
Take Care
&
Goodbye
Intimately Yours........
This song always makes me feel better no matter how bad things get. Roberta's beautiful voice is better medicine than any drug.
Heard this song when I was very young, but didn't understand it until after the hurt, pain and spiritually of Marriage...
My gosh her voice is so beautiful.
Ever since discovering this song, I've been wanting to see it on YouTube for the longest time (so I can pull it up and listen to it anytime I want). One of my favourite things about Ms. Roberta is that raw, warm voice that drips of emotion. You feel every note. This one showcases that perfectly. The rather simple instrumentation also reinforces that. A real gem !
❤️12/2019
This movie changed everything 💕
Oh my 🙏
I 💗this song
......and I remember you......Susan......thirty years ago...... How could I ever forget.....two years of pure magic...... A lifetime of memories!!!!!
The emotion that makes its way through the stillness of this song - anguish revealed. 11/2019
This gay man is thinking of sending this to his dearest female friend. I'm sure she'll understand. I love her deeply, and there's more to love than making love.
It is just kind of weird but sweet nostalgia.
Underrated song!
Ahh, the 70’s!
This song takes me back. life is good!
I did see the movie that goes with this song. I thought it was too pretty of a song to be associated with that movie. Just saying.
Awesome Song for Sure...1982 GEM!!
Y’all should watch the movie making live way before its time
Beautiful
Written for a film about 2 men in love 39 years ago.
This is such a Beautiful song from such an breakout and interesting movie.
This song stirs a lot with my heart. Roberta Flack's voice has made me float in this song for many years.
This came out at the same time me and my first love broke up in high school. Today was the first time after our breakup, where I could make it through the entire song...still feel the pain, but I have someone that I love just as dear, even more..."and now I'm feeling strong enough to let you in..."
Back when people could still love someone other than themselves.
Great comment!!
💖💜💛💚💙
Tearful love song.
I almost forgot about this song... I haven't heard it in well over twenty years! And just right now a memory popped up in my head and simple little note came to my head after and this song popped up... And here I am right here listening to it such a beautiful song!
o_O. .. our 💙 never mend.......
The entire track is so perfectly composed...thank you Burt!
But oh those few last measures when Roberta’s angelic voice is singing “...and I’ll remember you” followed by the Rhodes keyboard emulating the same notes.
My entire being is immersed in the most powerful melancholic state; tears aching to stream down my cheeks while the corners of my mouth break into a subtle smile as poignant memories of past love affairs parade through my mind!
Where are those women now...
A great song and I love the movie
There is more to love...and life and air and heart beats....please ALL OF YOU READING THIS...remember you are ALL lovely, sweet, handsome, beautiful and incredibly delicious and soft and lovely... PLEASE believe that.!!!! Here is a hug for all of you reading this!! and a soft kiss on the forhead of each and everyone of you!!!
This is song is magical and mistical.
I remember this song from the summer of 1982 in Greenville, N.C., listening to this one summer night looking at the stars in the sky with my girlfriend, before I went away to college at Morgan State University !!! 💓
💘 💘 💘...chills and tears...💘 💘..
Roberta's ability to go from soulful purr to amazing power has her as my #1 all time female vocalist.
And i'll remember you...
Classics Voices. Great Singer!
This song brings back so many great memories
So true!! True love is beyond lust, its internal the heart
A very sad movie and when they played this song at the end both my wife and I were in tears.
Here close to our feelings we touch again
We love again
Remember when we thought
Our hearts would never mend
And we're all the better for each other
There's more to love, I know
Than making love
Here no more confusion, we see our lives
We live our lives
Remember when we thought
We never would survive
But now neither one of us is breaking
There's more to love, I know
Than making love
Some things never change
Some things sometimes do
And now I'm feeling strong enough to let you in
And now neither one of us is breaking
Now we know there's more to love
Than making love
And I'll remember you and making love
And I'll remember you
And I'll remember you
And I'll remember you
And I'll remember you
INDEED... THIS IS A VERY TOUCHING 💓💔❤️ SONG. THEN YOU SHOULD SEE THE MOVIE OF THE SAME TITLE. THE MOVIE ITSELF IS MOVING AND HEART RECTHING, TO SEE HOW THIS MAN'S WIFE FINDS OUT THAT HE'S GAY, BUT REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT. EVEN HER HUSBAND IS FIGHTING THE FEELING THAT HE IS GAY BY GOING OUT TO GAY CLUBS AND FIND A GUY THAT HE SURPRISINGLY FIND DEEP FEELINGS FOR. IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN THE MOVIE " MAKING LOVE" ,. CHECK IT OUT.
I miss my Beautiful Wife and Beautiful Daughter so much. I never Dreamed I could hurt this bad. I Love You TD and LCB.
WOW, this song is so classy, elegant, and gorgeous compared to the crap out today. This coming from a white boy still in high school. I'll be sure to play this for my girlfriend but not my friends haha.
Such beautiful lyrics
This song sent me off to my adventure of finding the meaning of LOVE... I've meditated with this song looping it for hours... cried tears of mystery... Roberta I still am in wonder where you dreamed up these devotional lyrics... Thank you So much for the inspiration... I will remember you!
Great song from a great movie with the same title.
Fantabulous
Great song still after all these years
Absolute classic.
I got married 12/23/86. A few weeks later I was driving to work on the freeway and this song came on the radio. I was thinking how lucky I was to be married to this beautiful girl that I was in love with. It’s 2019 and I am divorced and feel intensely lonely at heart. How do people recover?
Just a beautiful song from the heart. Wow
🌷I Remember Listening To You,Your Words Are Astounding💓
And I remember you....
just so so good.....a song that was overlooked....
For you chouvis I love you so very much. I'm so glad we finally found each other.
Such a romantic song.
I loved this song the movie was good 12years old
As fine a delivery as on he "First Time..." and "Killing Me Softly..." three inimitable deliveries by Ms. Flack -genius. 1/2018
One of my favorite songs ever...deep song!
Therevis more to love I know than making love
And I remember you and Making Love

September. 2018 🎶🎶❤
I absolutely love the sentiments expressed in this song my favorite line in this song is, some things never change, some things sometimes do.
We must first become that which we desire to see in another......
I embody love
Pure
Unconditional
Everlasting
When you love, you just do
There's no expiration date
And I'll remember you and making love.

My all time favorite by Legend and soulful #RobertaFlank. the theme to the movie #MakingLove. 🌏
Beautiful
Beautiful Song & Movie! 1982
Roberta Flack has, undeniably, the most beautiful voice I've ever heard.
❤❤❤
SHE DID RELEASE THIS CLASSIC MASTERPIECE AND HIT SO BEAUTIFUL 😍😚😘😗
Roberta you are truly amazing talented women your music n style and voice it blows everyone away you are treasured god blessed you with that amazing voice !!
Her voice carries this whole song
Roberta Flack is certainly a fine composer in her own right, but I believe this song was composed by Burt Bacharach.
This really is an amazing song; sad, but beautiful
Truly love her music !!
2018 still listening.
Heard this on Sirus XM Radio Channel 70.....Speechless!
Theme from "Making Love" woman finds out her husband is gay.
Reminds me of the season finale of 1981-1982 season of Knots Landing when Val left Gary for cheating on her with Abby
The scene where he is chasing her on foot by the side of her car as she is driving away crying
