About Lyrics and Love by Barbra Streisand

The lyrics to Love are just the words, phrases, verses and chorus that Barbra Streisand used when the song was created in 1971. The lyrics to Love have both easy-to-spot meanings and hidden metaphors that have been discussed by the music press and fans, but only Barbra Streisand and any collaborators know all of the inspirations for the song.

If you like etymology or breaking apart phrases and words, it is easy to understand the lyrics to Love by Barbra Streisand. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Love" means the words set to the music of Love, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Barbra Streisand. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Love and the lyrics to Love are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Barbra Streisand who came here looking just for the lyrics to Love, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
