The Soundtrack

The soundtrack for this magnificent epic was written and conducted by James Horner, the Academy Award-winning composer of Titanic. You can see some vague similarities in the two scores, but this one is a dynamic Spanish theme that carries with it the same central core... the music changes with the entrance of each character and soon you can recognize points of the film from the music.

The closing song, preformed by Marc Anthony and Tina Arena, is "I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You," by the writers of "My Heart Will Go On."  (I'm enclosing the lyrics at the foot.) You can find sound clips at numerous sources online... just type "Mask of Zorro Soundtrack" into Yahoo or locate the album on Amazon.com.

I Want to Spend My Lifetime Loving You

(Click Here to Play the Midi)

 

Moon so bright, night so fine
Keep your heart here with mine
Life's a dream we are dreaming
Race the moon, catch the wind
Ride the night to the end
Seize the day, stand up for the light

I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
Heroes rise, heroes fall
Rise again, win it all
In your heart, can't you feel the glory?

Through our joy, through our pain
We can move worlds again
Take my hand, dance with me
(Dance with me)

I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do

I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my lifetime loving you

Though we know we will never come again
Where there is love, life begins
Over and over again
Save the night, save the day
Save the love, come what may
Love is worth everything we pay

I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I want to spend my lifetime loving you
If that is all in life I ever do
I will want nothing else to see me through
If I can spend my lifetime . . . loving you.
(Loving you . . . . Oh, yeahahaha.)
