Eric Serra Little Light Of Love Lyrics
I was born and in my cry, my cry
Was a little light of love
For the honoring of life
And the Pharos of my soul
Is this light of love
Precious little light of love
There’s a candle burning on
In the breezy shades of night
I keep up my faith and underset my hope
To call on a realm of light
A treasure
Your shimmer
In the middle of the shady desert
Brings on a field of light
In a light of love
Fairy light of love
Only one religion
Will lead us to the love we aim for
Over the dark illusions
Of the warring nations
A wind of anger leads the power
The destruction glorifier
And when the war is nearly over
How come the leader’s held in high honors
Would you die
For their lie
The greedy hunting cry
Rely on your light
Little loving light
A little light of sole religion
We will lead a light of love
A little light of soaring freedom
Just a little light of love
A little light of sole religion
Take this little light of love
A little light of love and freedom
Take me
A little light of love and freedom

Éric Serra’s father Claude was a famous French songwriter in the 1950s and ’60s, and, as such, Éric was exposed to music and its production at a young age. His mother died when he was just seven years old. In the early ’80s, Serra met director Luc Besson and was asked to score his first movie Le Dernier Combat (1983). Serra has scored all of Besson’s directed movies to date, except Angel-A (2005) (scored by Anja Garbarek), and several that Besson has written such as Wasabi.
In 1995, Éric Serra was chosen to compose the score to the James Bond film GoldenEye, and produced a much more modern-sounding avant-garde soundtrack compared to previous Bond films. It met with mixed reviews from film critics. Serra’s score is often criticized by Bond fans, and is considered the farthest departure from a traditional Bond score and, by some, as the most inappropriate in the series history. Others find it highly innovative, with the main problem the lack of John Barry’s traditional theme. The producers later hired John Altman to provide the music for the tank chase in St. Petersburg. Serra’s original track for that sequence can still be found on the soundtrack as “A Pleasant Drive In St. Petersburg”.
Occasionally, and mainly due to his album released by this name, he is known in credits as RXRA (pronounced like his name, in French). An example is “Little Light of Love” on The Fifth Element soundtrack, which is credited to RXRA.
