The Song "I Say Love" from The Young and The Restless' 12/27/07 episode is finally available!



A fan sent Soapsongs.com an email at the end of last year asking about the name of the song playing on 12/26/07's Y&R while Amber closes Crimson Lights down for the night. It was a beautiful evocation of the love she was feeling that just wasn't being reciprocated.

Well, that song, "I Say Love", is written and sung by one of my favorite Boston-based singer-songwriters -- Todd Thibaud. You can listen to many of his songs on Itunes or his own site. You'll be glad you did.


But in the meantime, this song of his that was on Young and the Restless (I Say Love) is only available at the moment at Soapsongs.com, and we finally have the rights to offer it as an mp3 download. Go for it! We've had lots of fans asking about it since that day, so take a listen at www.soapsongs.com


Here are the words - magnificent, aren't they?


I SAY LOVE ((c) 2007 Todd Thibaud


Well the path is clear, it starts right here, I see it every morning

And with every step I feel the pull of all that lies before me

So the road is long and sometimes hard but I don't even falter

See not everyone that's been in Love is waiting on the altar


I say Love when it's easy, I say Love when it's hard

I say Love's the only reason, I can open up my heart

And if Love is not the answer, I don't understand the question

If Love is not the future, I'll take a new direction

I say Love


Well a poor man lies awake at night, worrying 'bout tomorrow

And rich man knows the perfect life is just something he can borrow

But a man with Love he don't need luck, never even wonders

He sees truth in every heart and doesn't fret the thunder


I say Love when it's easy, I say Love when it's hard

I say Love's the only reason, I can open up my heart

And if Love is not the answer, I don't understand the question

If Love is not the future, man I'll take a new direction

I say Love


And out here on your own

Love can bring you home
Well it's nothing new it's been around, one for all the ages

And if it's just an open book, well maybe we're the pages


I say Love when it's easy, I say Love when it's hard

I say Love's the only reason, I can open up my heart

And if Love is not the answer, I don't understand the question

If Love is not the future, man I'll take a new direction

If Love is not the future, man I'll take a new direction

If Love is not the future, man I'll take a new direction

I say Love

I say Love
