What is your favourite love song, who would you sing it to and why?

Mine is Songbird - Fleetwood Mac(sung by Eva Cassidy) sung to my daughter just because...


For you, there'll be no more crying,
For you, the sun will be shining,
And I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right

To you, I'll give the world
to you, I'll never be cold
'Cause I feel that when I'm with you,
It's alright, I know it's right.

And the songbirds are singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before.

And I wish you all the love in the world,
But most of all, I wish it from myself.

And the songbirds keep singing,
Like they know the score,
And I love you, I love you, I love you,
Like never before, like never before.

I know you by heart for my ex.



I Know You By Heart (Eva Cassidy)


Midnights in Winter
The glowing fire
Lights up your face in orange and gold.
I see your sweet smile
Shine through the darkness
It’s line is etched in my memory.

So I’d know you by heart.

Mornings in April
Sharing our secrets
We’d walk until the morning was gone.
We were like children
Laughing for hours
The joy you gave me lives on and on.

‘Cause I know you by heart.

I still hear your voice
On warm Summer nights
Whispering like the wind.

(Oh oh ohh…)

You left in Autumn
The leaves were turning
I walked down roads of orange and gold.
I saw your sweet smile
I heard your laughter
You’re still here beside me every day.

‘Cause I know you by heart,
‘Cause I know you by heart.

What's your daughter's name, Aunty Em? She looks like a real sweetie :D

Our song is still Paradise by the Dashboard Light...Meatloaf

"I gotta know right now!
Do you love me?
Will you love me forever?
Do you need me?
Will you never leave me?
Will you make me so happy for the rest of my life?
Will you take me away and will you make me your wife?
I gotta know right now!
Before we go any further
Do you love me?
And will you love me forever?


Boy:
Let me sleep on it
Baby, baby let me sleep on it
Let me sleep on it
And I'll give you my answer in the morning
Let me sleep on it!!!


Girl:
Will you love me forever?

Boy:
Let me sleep on it!!!

Girl:
Will you love me forever!!!


III. Praying for the End of Time


Boy:
I couldn't take it any longer
Lord I was crazed
And when the feeling came upon me
Like a tidal wave
I started swearing to my god and on my mother's grave
That I would love you to the end of time
I swore that I would love you to the end of time!


Boy and Girl:
So now I'm praying for the end of time
To hurry up and arrive
Cause if I gotta spend another minute with you
I don't think that I can really survive
I'll never break my promise or forget my vow
But God only knows what I can do right now
I'm praying for the end of time
It's all that I can do
Praying for the end of time, so I can end my time with you!!!
"

Her name is Katie, she's 13 and don't believe that smile - she may look angelic but she's a real little devil at heart and can twist me round her little finger. :evilgrin: I'm very lucky to have her. :)

This is kind of a father/son love song. I used to enjoy playing it while trying to get Levi to go to sleep.

St. Judy's Comet

Words & music by Paul Simon

Oo, little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime's winding past
And though I know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
You're fading fast, oh fading fast

Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see St. Judy's Comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake
Oh, when you wake, wake

Little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy
Won't you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies

Well I sang it once and I sang it twice
I'm going to sing it three times more
I'm going to stay 'til your resistance
Is overcome
'Cause if I can't sing my boy to sleep
Well it makes your famous daddy look so dumb
look so dumb

Won't you run come see St. Judy's Comet
Roll across the skies
And leave a spray of diamonds in its wake
I long to see St. Judy's Comet
Sparkle in your eyes when you awake
Oh, when you wake, wake

Little boy, little boy
Won't you lay your body down
Little boy, little boy
Won't you close your weary eyes
Ain't nothing flashing but the fireflies

Oo, little sleepy boy
Do you know what time it is?
Well the hour of your bedtime's long been past
And though I know you're fighting it
I can tell when you rub your eyes
You're fading fast, oh fading fast

I don't guess Jan and I really have an official song. Our taste in music has changed over the years, and most of the stuff I was listening to when we met wasn't good love song material. There's one song from that time that's kind of stuck around though...

I'm Sticking With You

(Reed)

I'm sticking with you
'Cos I'm made out of glue
Anything that you might do
I'm gonna do too

You held up a stage coach in the rain
And I'm doing the same
Saw you're hanging from a tree
And I made believe it was me

I'm sticking with you
'Cos I'm made out of glue
Anything that you might do
I'm gonna do too

People going to the stratosphere
Soldiers fighting with the cong?

But with you by my side I can do anything
When we swing
We hang past right or wrong

I'll do anything for you
Anything you want me too
I'll do anything for you
Oohoh I'm sticking with you
Oohoh I'm sticking with you
Oohoh I'm sticking with you

For Anna, I guess it would have to my adaptation of Alouette. When I took French I discovered that the song was actually about plucking various body parts off of a poor little bird. I changed the words so I could sing it to her. Instead of "je te plumerai" (I will pluck you), I changed it to "je te boucherai" (I will kiss you). I'm not sure how good the French is on this...

Annalyssa, gentille Annalyssa
Annalyssa, je te boucherai
Je te boucherai la tete!
(Je te boucherai la tete!)
Et la tete!
(Et la tete!)

Annalyssa, gentille Annalyssa
Annalyssa, je te boucherai
Je te boucherai le nez!
(Je te boucherai le nez!)
Et le nez!
(Et le nez!)
Et la tete!
(Et la tete!)

Etc...

I have so many of them from ex boyfriends that always make me think of them when I hear it (I usually turn the song off :D)

When I See You Smile -- Bad English
Everything I Do, I Do it for you -- Bryan Adams
Wonderful Tonight -- Eric Clapton
Endless Summer Nights -- Richard Marx
Jessica -- Allman Brothers
You're the Inspiration -- Chicago

I Hope You Dance makes me think of my nieces and nephews and Nightswimming by REM makes me think of Rusty :)

I have no one to dedicate a love song to and when I was with brainsoft he wouldn't let us have a song. I dunno, he thought it was stupid or something.... :rolleyes:

I take it the breakup was acrimonious then. :)

I still talk to my ex (for my daughter's sake) but it was initially through clenched teeth. It took about 2 years before I could actually look at him without daggers drawn.

Oh at first it was. He dumped my ass pretty hard. He really wanted to be friends though so we tried that, now that I am completely over his romantically he is starting to seem like he doesn't wanna be friends anymore. So, looks like I may have another "breakup" of sorts to deal with.

:rolleyes: I hate boys SO much!

Ok, well, when I hate boys I hate HIM, and that is only sometimes. There are other boys whom I don't hate. I'm a softie for a cute boy who walks me home and unfortunately for my bandaged heart there is one of those right now......

It's a good sign you're no longer wielding sharp weapons, it means you've moved on to slapping the taste out of his mouth with your bare hands when he gets out of line :headbang:

That was about 3 years ago? I'm quite philosophical about it now and realise we should never have married in the first place but just remained friends - it's quite complicated - he was my ex-boyfriend then - a rebound from my rebound. :laugh3:

To tell you the truth, I'm probably still very fond of him, we did have some great times together but as a commited partner he's crap. :(
