Shirley performs two songs on this clip as follows: 1) You Take My Heart Away, 2) Amore.
This "Rocky Movie" song was originally an instrumental, but then words were subsequently written, and it is titled, 'You Take My Heart Away. For the second song, "Amore", Shirley performed it in a wonderful dinner/theatre spot in Jamaica. This song was recorded and released on Shirley's 1977 album of the same name.
ABOUT the song, "AMORE":
"Amore", also known as "Amor Amor" and "Amor Amor Amor" is a popular song published in 1943.
The music was written by Gabriel Ruiz, with original Spanish lyrics by Ricardo López Méndez and English lyrics by Sunny Skylar. The two biggest-selling versions in the United States were recorded by Bing Crosby and Andy Russell. Crosby's version was recorded on February 17, 1944 for Decca Records as catalog number 18608. It first reached the Billboard Best Seller chart on June 29, 1944, and lasted seven weeks on the chart, peaking at number four.

It first reached the Billboard Best Seller chart on May 25, 1944, and lasted eight weeks on the chart, peaking at number five. In 1961, American soul singer Ben E.

In 2001, Luis Miguel covered the song, which was released as the lead single from his album Mis Romances (2001). The song peaked at number 13 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs chart.
LYRICS - You Take My Heart Away:
Touch me,
take me in your arm,
shelter me from harm,
let me love you for a million years or more,
I never felt this way before,
before your kiss,
you take my heart away, away.
Love me, love me from your heart,
let us never part,
bring me all the dreams you thought would never be,
we'll make them all reality,
just you and me,
you take my heart away, away.
You're my dream come true,
baby I love you,
I confess I need ya,
I will never leave you alone,
o I love you true,
my whole world is you,
I confess I need ya,
and I will never leave you alone.
You take my heart away, away.
Touch me,

You take my heart away, away.
LYRICS - AMORE:
Amor, amor, my love
This word so sweet that I repeat
Means I adore you
Amor, amor, my love
Would you deny this heart
That I have placed before you?
I can't find another word
With meaning so clear
My lips try to whisper
Sweeter things in your ear
But somehow or other
Nothing sounds quite so dear
As this soft caressing word I know
Amor, amor, my love
When you're away
There is no day
And nights are lonely
Amor, amor, my love
Make life divine
Say you'll be mine
And love me only
I ❤you so much...I've been in love with you since I was 13. 🥰🥰🥰
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
