I'm want burn a cd of the romantic songs for my DH. Now that the kids are out of the house forever, it's time to concentrate on just us. SO...... can you help me out? I need some good suggestions from all you Diser's. What are you favorite romantic songs and who sings 'em? Think back to high school days. Which songs just melted your heart and made you cry when you thought/think of your "true love"?
Oh my gosh......... Weekend in New England by Barry Manilow just came on......... excuse me while I reminesce (sp?) and cry some........ (yeah- go ahead and give me the sad love songs too- what would hisgh school be like without those sad love songs??? ;) )

and suggestions would be appreciated!
 
Bryan Adams, Please Forgive Me. DH would sing it kinda goofy to me, so now I like it.
 
When we were dating my husband made up 10 or so different tapes with all love songs on them. But my all time favorite is Just you and I by Edie Rabbit and Crystal Gayle (just so happens to be our wedding song )
I think I still have the lists printed somewhere if I come across them I will let you know
 

My Best Friend by Tim McGraw!

Goodnight Elisabeth - Counting Crows
Romeo & Juliet - Dire Straits
La Seremissima - Loreena McKennitt (no lyrics)

Goodnight Elisabeth

I was wasted in the afternoon
Waiting on a train
I woke up in pieces and Elisabeth had disappeared again
I wish you were inside of me
I hope that you're ok
I hope you're resting quietly
I just wanted to say
Goodnight Elisabeth
Goodnight Elisabeth
We couldn't all be cowboys
So some of us are clowns
Some of us are dancers on the midway
We roam from town to town
I hope that everybody can find a little flame
Me, I say my prayers, then I just light myself on fire
And walk out on the wire once again
And I say
Goodnight Elisabeth
Goodnight Elisabeth
I will wait for you in Baton Rouge
I'll miss you down in New Orleans
I'll wait for you while she slips in something comfortable
I'll miss you when I'm slipping in between
If you wrap yourself in daffodils
I will wrap myself in pain
If you're the queen of California,
Baby I am the king of the rain

And I said
Goodnight Elisabeth
Goodnight Elisabeth
Goodnight Elisabeth,
The moon is a satellite
And wont you fall down on me now,
Wont you fall down on me
Wont you fall down on me now
Wont you fall down on me
Cause Im all alone, you ain't coming home
We just settle down down into bone
I said I'm all alone. you ain't coming home
We just settle down down down into bone

OMG, when Adam Duritz sings the line I highlighted, I am near tears... :rotfl: I'm such a dork

a lovestruck romeo sings the streets a serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?

juliet says hey it's romeo you nearly gave me a heart attack
he's underneath the window she's singing hey la my boyfriend's back
you shoudn't come around here singing up at people like that
anyway what you gonna do about it?

juliet the dice were loaded from the start
and I bet and you exploded in my heart
and I forget I forget the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong juliet?

come up on different streets they both were streets of shame
both dirty both mean yes and the dream was just the same
and I dream your dream for you and now your dream is real
how can you look at me as I was just another one of your deals?

well you can fall for chains of silver you can fall for chains of gold
you can fall for pretty strangers and the promises they hold
you promised me everything you promised me thick and thin
now you just say oh romeo yeah you know I used to have a scene with him

juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said I love you like the stars above I'll love you till I die
there's a place for us you know the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong?

I can't do the talk like the talk on the tv
and I can't do a love song like the way its meant to be
I can't do everything but I'd do anything for you
can't do anything except be in love with you

and all I do is miss you and the way we used to be
all I do is keep the beat the bad company
all I do is kiss you through the bars of Orion
julie I'd do the stars with you any time

juliet when we made love you used to cry
you said I love you like the stars above Ill love you till I die
there's a place for us you know the movie song
when you gonna realize it was just that the time was wrong?

a lovestruck romeo sings the streets a serenade
laying everybody low with a lovesong that he made
finds a convenient streetlight steps out of the shade
says something like you and me babe how about it?

Oh - just remembered this one...

Guinevere
Written by Robin Batteau

Guinevere in my castle in Normandy
Make a new home with me come follow me down
Guinevere all my honor and glory
Will just be a story of the fall of the crown

Am I some dancing Lancelot who only falls in love
With a woman who belongs to someone else
Is it just the blood of Paris running through my veins
That sees and takes a woman and myself I can't restrain

Is this knight of cups in his noble stance
Just a jack of clubs with an eye askance
On the queen of hearts in her royal blue
I may shield the poor but I can't save you

Guinevere in my castle in Normandy
Make a new home with me come follow me down
Guinevere all my honor and glory
Will just be a story of the fall of the crown

Golden apples on the mountain this one fell to me
We are planets in a heartless gravity
I never chose to make a choice
It felt like someone else's voice
Saying all those crazy things down on one knee

Cassandra never cast a shadow now it's heading to the shore
Oh the face that launched a thousand ships is sailing one more

Guinevere in my castle in Normandy
Make a new home with me come follow me down
Guinevere all my honor and glory
Will just be a story of the fall of the crown
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!If anyone knows of ANY way to obtain a copy of Guineviere performed by Batteau and David Buskin, I would pay you for it. I have been searching for the original for years. If you know where this is available, please PM me.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
My all time favorite love song ever since high school days is, "When A Man Loves A Woman", by Percy Sledge. It still makes me tingle---
 
Amazed by Lonestar
When You say Nothing At All by Alison Krauss
True by Ryan Cabrera
Bless the Broken Road by Rascall Flatts
Maybe I'm Amazed by Jem
 
My DH and I love this song...

BEAUTIFUL IN MY EYES (Joshua Kadison)

You’re my peace of mind, in this crazy world
You’re everything I've tried to find
Your love is a pearl
You’re my Mona Lisa
You’re my rainbow skies
And my only prayer is that you realize
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes...

The world will turn
And the seasons will change
And all the lessons we will learn
Will be beautiful and strange
We'll have our fill of tears
Our share of sighs
My only prayer is that you realize
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes...

You will always be beautiful in my eyes
And the passing years will show
That you will always grow
Ever more beautiful in my eyes

And there are lines upon my face
From a lifetime of smiles
When the time comes to embrace
For one long last while
We can laugh about how time really flies
We won’t say goodbye
‘Cause true love never dies
You'll always be beautiful in my eyes...

You will always be beautiful in my eyes
And the passing is the show
That you will always grow
Ever more beautiful in my eyes

The passing years will show
That you will always grow
Ever more beautiful in my eyes...
 
The song for our first dance at wedding reception was
*drum roll*
"You're my first, my last, my everything" by Barry White

If you listen to the lyrics, it's really sweet and romantic. I still melt when I hear it! :love:
 
I love that one by Eric Clapton, You look wonderful tonight. I also love Chris Deburg's Lady in Red.
 
"Only have eyes for you" I think that's the name of the song.

A more current one is "Making memories of us" by Keith Urban. Just the line "I want to sleep with you forever." Kind of says it all.
 
I like my parents wedding song. If- By Bread. Hmm, I also like Don't You Forget about Me- by Simple Minds. I don't really think its all that romantic though. After All- by Cher and Peter Cetara (I know I spelled his last name wrong. Probably. I hate spelling!)
 
Unchained Melody.

PS. Love your cat Aurora!
 
I just made a CD (and matching scrapbook) for my DH for his birthday. Here are the songs I used:

Making Memories of us - Keith Urban
I Think About You - Bryan Adams
Always - Bon Jovi
Feels Like Home - Chantal Kreviazuk
Thank You For Loving Me - Bon Jovi
Promise - Epcot's Illuminations
Taking you Home - Don Henley
If I Should Fall Behind - Bruce Springsteen
You'll be in My Heart - Phil Collins (Tarzan)
Bless the Broken Road - Rascal Flatts
I'll Stand by You - Pretenders
You're my Home - Billy Joel
True Companion - Marc Cohn
