Eternally
Eternally is a song with music by Charles (Charlie) Chaplin, and words by the English lyricists Geoff Parsons and John Turner.

As "Terry's Theme", the tune was a charting instrumental hit in 1953 for Frank Chacksfield (UK #2, US #5), Ron Goodwin (UK #3), and Richard Hayman (US #13). As "Eternally", it was recorded by Jimmy Young (UK #8, 1953), Vic Damone (US #12, 1953), Li Xianglan (in Chinese and Japanese), Petula Clark (These Are My Songs, 1967), Bing Crosby (for his radio show), Dinah Shore, Steve Lawrence, Michel Legrand, Jerry Vale, Sarah Vaughan, Roger Whittaker, Engelbert Humperdinck (1973 and 2007), Victor Wood (1971), Amália Rodrigues, John Serry Sr. (Squeeze Play, 1956), among many others.
