Endless Love

Endless Love by Diana Ross and Lionel Richie is featured in Ballad, the tenth episode of Season One. It is sung by Rachel and Will.

They sing it while demonstrating what a ballad is. This song makes Rachel notice that Will has very pretty eyes and she starts to develop a crush on him. During the song, Rachel, Will and other New Directions members have thoughts which they express in voice-overs. Kurt thinks he could totally sing the song with Finn, but notes that the latter won't be getting the Diana Ross part. Finn comments on how nice Rachel's butt looks, and he thinks Quinn catches him looking at it. Puck says he loves the days when he doesn't wear underwear and describes it as going "full commando". As for Will, he is visibly uncomfortable at the way that Rachel was gazing at him as the neared its end, knwing all too well that look.

Will talks to Emma about Rachel's crush, and Emma thinks that in hindsight, singing Endless Love to her wasn't the brightest idea, so she gives him the idea of singing something to Rachel to let her down easily. He then sings Don't Stand So Close to Me/Young Girl, which unfortunately doesn't work as intended. It actually drove her crush into an overdrive towards him in the episode.

Lyrics

Will:
My love,
There’s only you in my life
The only thing that’s right

Rachel:
My first love,
You're every breath that I take
You're every step I make

Will (and Rachel):
And I (Rachel: I)
I want to share
(All my love with you)
No one else will do

Rachel:
And your eyes (Will: Your eyes, your eyes)

Rachel and Will:
They tell me how much you care
Oh yes
You will always be
My endless love

Two hearts
Two hearts that beat as one
Our lives have just begun

Rachel (and Will):
Forever (Will: Oooh)
(I’ll hold you close in my arms)
(I can’t resist your charms)

And I (Will: Oh, love)
(I’ll be a fool for you)
(I’m sure)
You know I don’t mind (Will: Oh, you know I don’t mind)

Rachel and Will:
'Cause you
You mean my world to me
Oh I know
I've found in you
My endless love

Bum Bum
Bum Bum Bum Bum Bum Bum Bum
Bum Bum Bum Bum Bum

Oh and I (Will: Oh Love)
I’ll be that fool for you
I’m sure

Rachel:
You know I don’t mind (Will: Oh, you know I don't mind!)
You don't mind!

Rachel and Will:
And yes!
You'll be the only one
‘Cause no one can deny this love
I have inside
And I’ll give it all to you

Will:
My love (Rachel: My love, my Love)

Rachel and Will:
My endless love

Trivia

During the song, most of the other New Directions members, the ones not participating in the voice over, are waving their phones above them whilst the screens are on, as if they are at a concert.
This is the only Season One duet from Will in which he doesn't sing with a guest star.
This is Rachel's favorite duet.
