Need help name of song from 70s Goldie Hawn movie


From The Dutchess and the Dirtwater Fox, Does anyone know the name of the song played at the Jewish wedding reception? It's the song after Hava Nagila. Thank you for your help.

Are there lyrics?

Here are the lyrics to the song title: "Touch Of Love" - Movie Title: "Duchess and The Dirtwater Fox."

“Touch Of Love”

Touch me tenderly, love
Touch me gently and then
I'll make this vow to you
Here and now to you
As I bid to you
As I vow to you
Will I leave you?
Never ever

If you look in my eyes
Then you must realize
That as we go through life
As we grow through life
We will learn through life
We will know through life
Love will make us grow forever

This my darling
We will surely taste the fruits of love
This night surely
Hold your kisses firm on mine
Tender soft and warm on mine
We will know the sweet fulfillment of our love

On this day of all days
On this night of all nights
We'll let our hearts combine
When our hearts can bind
With you're faith in me
And your hand in mine
Giving just for one another
Living just for one another

Are you sure that was the film? Hava Nagila and wedding scene sound like they are from Private Benjamin. Here is the list of songs from that film:

I am sure it was Dutchess. Someone posted the movie on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gTCURZyQEZQ) . The song is at 50:15

reply

That makes it easier! still dont know though , i cant tell what the y are saying

reply

Try playing that clip and using the Shazam app. I did that once to id. a song in a movie and it worked.

reply

Thank you . I will try

reply

No result using Shazam. It may be because the You Tube video is not playing at normal speed.

reply

Just based on the lyrics and the titles from the soundtrack, it's most likely "A Touch of Love" by Charles Fox (words by Sammy Cahn and Melvin Frank).

I'm confident that I am hearing most of the lyrics correctly, but I don't get any hits from google searching the lyrics I hear. It's possible that the song was written for the movie, even though it sounds like it could be a hundred year old folk song.

Don't confuse this with the R&B song "Just a Touch of Love"

Hi there,

I know your post is one year old, but I only just now came across it.
I have an audio copy of that song if you want it.

The lyrics are as follows:

“Touch Of Love”

Touch me tenderly, love
Touch me gently and then
I'll make this vow to you
Here and now to you
As I bid to you
As I vow to you
Will I leave you?
Never ever

If you look in my eyes
Then you must realize
That as we go through life
As we grow through life
We will learn through life
We will know through life
Love will make us grow forever

This my darling
We will surely taste the fruits of love
This night surely
Hold your kisses firm on mine
Tender soft and warm on mine
We will know the sweet fulfillment of our love

On this day of all days
On this night of all nights
We'll let our hearts combine
When our hearts can bind
With you're faith in me
And your hand in mine
Giving just for one another
Living just for one another
