The most beautiful love song ever....

[Clawdy]

For me, it has to be this, especially Chet Baker's version from the 1940s :
"I get along without you very well,
Of course I do,
Except to hear your name,

Or someone 's laugh that is the same....."
And the last lines:
"Except perhaps in Spring,
But I should never think of Spring,
For that would surely break my heart in two..."
It gets me every time! What song do you find beautiful?

something changed by Pulp.

Love the line in Everlong by the Foo Fighters where he goes "breathe out so I can breathe you in..." gives me the shivers!

Lady in Red - Chris de Burgh

Probably not a popular choice, but I love it.

When I fall in love - the Andrea Bocelli version. Me and DH met when we were quite young so there's something about this one that really sits with me.

First Day of my Life by Bright Eyes

Dance Me To The End Of Love - Leonard Cohen

God Only Knows by the Beach Boys, and More Than Words by Extreme

I've got a soft spot for Stick Around by Ron Pope. Played it for my fiancé after a really tough day with our 2 week old son and we both just burst into tears and cuddled on the sofa while DS slept in his arms. It makes the song so much more special for me now

Nights in White satin. Moody Blues

Am now on a total nostalgia kick getting sentimental over the cooking.

Yes to first day of my life.

Aviator The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face is my song for DS2! Snap!

The minute I looked at him, those words came into my head, I've been singing it to him ever since!

Can’t Help Falling in Love, Elvis Presley. I’m not a gushy romantic person whatsoever but hearing this song turns me to mush. I long with all of my being that if I ever fall in love and marry (unlikely lol) that I can have this as our first dance song :)

Jesus to a child ...George Michael

You are my sister - Antony and the Johnsons

Annie's Song - John Denver , The most beautiful song ever!

Days - Kirsty MacColl.
The words take my breath away

"thank you for the days
the endless days, the sacred days you gave me
I thinking of the days
I won't forget a single thing
believe me"

Power of Love - Frankie Goes to Hollywood

Something - The Beatles

Always a Woman - Billy Joel

oh yes - God Only Knows - another truly beautiful song

The Power of Love

This time we go sublime
Lovers entwined divine, divine
Love is danger, love is pleasure
Love is pure, the only treasure
I'm so in love with you
Make love your goal
The power of love
A force from above
Cleaning my soul
The power of love
A force from above
A sky scraping dove
Flame on burn desire
Love with tongues of fire
Purge the soul

Jeff Buckley: Lover You Should’ve Come Over. Gets me every time

It's never over, my kingdom for a kiss upon her shoulder.
It's never over, all my riches for her smiles when I slept so soft against her.
It's never over, all of my blood for the sweetness of her laughter.
It's never over, she is the tear that hangs inside my soul forever.
