Valentine’s Day is a big deal!  It can have more than one song of the day, right?

I mean, how can I let this day go by without sharing my favorite Bond theme song?  All Time High may have been written because there weren’t many words that rhymed with Octopussy but it’s still not only one of my favorite Bond themes but also one of my favorite love songs.

Plus, it’s one of the few songs that I used to absolutely kill with during karaoke night at Grandpa Tony’s.

(Grandpa Tony’s was a nice little restaurant.  The owner was a former boxer who had a crush on my mom so he had no problem with her four daughters singing their hearts out every Friday!  The older you get, the more you treasure memories like that.)

All I wanted was a sweet distraction for an hour or two
Had no intention to do the things we’ve done
Funny how it always goes with love, when you don’t look, you find
But then we’re two of a kind, we move as one

We’re an all-time high
We’ll change all that’s gone before
Doing so much more than falling in love
On an all-time high
We’ll take on the world and win
So hold on tight, let the flight begin

I don’t want to waste a waking moment, I don’t want to sleep
I’m in so strong and so deep, and so are you
In my time, I’ve said these words before, but now I realize
My heart was telling me lies, for you, they’re true

We’re an all-time high
We’ll change all that’s gone before
Doing so much more than falling in love
On an all-time high
We’ll take on the world and win
So hold on tight, let the flight begin

So hold on tight, let the flight begin
We’re an all-time high
