Song from Disney's 1998 animated film The Lion King II: Simba's Pride
The song is sung by Kovu and Kiara, who, despite being from opposing lion prides, fall in love. Kovu has just been exiled from the Pride Lands after being falsely accused of attempting to assassinate Simba. They sing about how their love will conquer all opposition and ultimately bring them together again.
Reception
The New York Times called it a "detachable...mawkish...generic-sounding ballad", and disliked the blight against Kiara's character of not being "brave and strong and smart" that is included in the song's lyrics. However, the newspaper added that the line does call to attention her "colorless, indistinct character", which lacks the cleverness of Belle and the will of Ariel. The Disney Song Encyclopedia describes it as a "romantic ballad" about how love can overcome all obstacles. Bustle compared the line "Somewhere in my secret heart, I know love will find a way" to the work of Pablo Neruda. Geeks Of Doom negatively compared the song to The Lion King's "Can You Feel the Love Tonight", but said the "overlooked" and "forgotten" song was a "touching" musical moment from the film about the "challenges of making relationships work" in the face of hurdles. AllMusic deemed the song a "favourite". Metro controversially deemed the tune Disney's 5th best song, positively comparing it to the "boring" and artificial "Can You Feel The Love Tonight" commenting that the "romantic" tune "tugs at the heartstrings in a much more meaningful way".
As of April 2017, the song is the 15th most streamed Disney song on Deezer, the second song on the list from The Lion King franchise after "Circle of Life".
MsMojo ranked the song 8th place in their "Top 10 Best Lion King Songs" video, commenting that "while the scenery is simple throughout the song, it's still quite captivating and fitting for the message it evokes."
