I don't know if it's the right board but...

 

what's the best love song you've listened?

 

Post lyrics if it's possible.

Hmm...Flowerstand man, in my opinion, is one of the best love songs on Earth.

 

Dido ft. Faithless

Lyrics...

 

'Bout a month ago I'd never seen your face

I'd never heard your voice

'Bout a month ago

I am a careful hunter

And I had to search

Before I found your love

'Bout a month ago

Are you my boy or the Flowerstand Man

You bought such colour to this place

Are you my boy or the Flowerstand Man

With you I am laid back

I don't care if every River runs so dry

I don't care if every Species were to die

I don't care about the Ozone layer

I wouldn't notice if it wasn't there

Oh no I don't care if we sell Coke to Africa

I don't care about apartheid

I wouldn't notice if it all get better

I don't care about the starving who've died

Your my boy when the way you live and breathe

I don't care about anything but you

Your my boy when the way you live and breathe

I don't care about anything but you

Take me home

At the moment Death Cab for Cutie - Transatlanticism. It's just too beautiful and calm. Both lyrics and the melody. Worth the listening

 

The Atlantic was born today and I'll tell you how

The clouds above opened and let it out

I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere

When the water filled every hole

And thousands upon thousands made an ocean

Making islands where no island should go

Oh no

 

Those people were overjoyed; they took to their boats

I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat

The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flood lands to your door

have been silenced forever more

The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row

It seems further than ever before

Oh no

 

I need you so much closer...

 

I need you so much closer

So come on, so come on

 

I'll sound really typical... but when I say typical, I mean it couldn't more obvious...

To me, this song is the best love song I've ever heard...

 

Moses - Coldplay

 

Come on now, don't you want to see

This thing that's happening to me

Like moses has power over sea

So you've got power over me

 

Come on now don't you want to know

You're a refuge, somewhere i can go

You're air that, air that i can breathe

You're my golden opportunity

 

And oh, oh yes i would

If i only could

And you know i would

And baby i, oh baby i

I wish

 

Come on now, don't you want to see

Just what a difference you've made in me

I'll be waiting oh no matter what you say

Cause i've been waiting for days and days and days

 

And oh, oh yes i would

If i only could

And you know i would

And baby i, oh baby i

I wish

I wish

 

Oh, oh, oh

Oh, oh, oh

If the sky's gonna fall down let it fall on me

If you're gonna break down you can break on me

If the sky's gonna fall down let it fall on me

If it's gonna rain down it can rain on me

It can rain on me

First Day of my life - Bright Eyes

 

This is the first day of my life

Swear I was born right in the doorway

I went out in the rain, suddenly everything changed

They’re spreading blankets on the beach

 

Yours was the first face that I saw

I think I was blind before I met you

I don’t know where I am, I don’t know where I’ve been

But I know where I want to go

 

So I thought I’d let you know

That these things take forever, I especially am slow

But I realized how I need you

And I wondered if I could come home

 

I remember the time you drove all night

Just to meet me in the morning

And I thought it was strange, you said everything changed

You felt as if you just woke up

 

And you said, this is the first day of my life

Glad I didn’t die before I met you

Now I don’t care, I could go anywhere with you

And I’d probably be happy

 

So if you wanna be with me

With these things there’s no telling, we’ll just have to wait and see

But I’d rather be working for a paycheck

Than waiting to win the lottery

 

Besides maybe this time it’s different

I mean, I really think you like me

*bump*

mine right now would be:

 

"You And Me"

 

What day is it? And in what month?

This clock never seemed so alive

I can't keep up and I can't back down

I've been losing so much time

 

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do

Nothing to lose

And it's you and me and all other people

And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

 

One of the things that I want to say just aren't coming out right

I'm tripping on words

You've got my head spinning

I don't know where to go from here

 

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do

Nothing to prove

And it's you and me and all other people

And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

 

There's something about you now

I can't quite figure out

Everything she does is beautiful

Everything she does is right

 

'Cause it's you and me and all of the people with nothing to do

Nothing to lose

And it's you and me and all other people

And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

and me and all other people with nothing to do

Nothing to prove

And it's you and me and all other people

And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you

 

What day is it?

And in what month?

This clock never seemed so alive

This one is great. I feel it every time I hear it.

^love that one as well! :D

 

there are soooo many...it's impossible to pick one and say it's my favorite forever.

 

but i think one song that will always be one of my ultimate favorites is "wonderwall" by oasis. it gets me in this amazing way every single time i hear it:

 

Today is gonna be the day

That they're gonna throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you gotta do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do about you now

 

Backbeat the word was on the street

That the fire in your heart is out

I'm sure you've heard it all before

But you never really had a doubt

I don't believe that anybody feels

The way I do about you now

 

And all the roads we have to walk along are winding

And all the lights that lead us there are blinding

There are many things that I would

Like to say to you

I don't know how

 

Because maybe

You're gonna be the one who saves me ?

And after all

You're my wonderwall

 

Today was gonna be the day?

But they'll never throw it back to you

By now you should've somehow

Realized what you're not to do

I don't believe that anybody

Feels the way I do

About you now

 

And all the roads that lead to you were winding

And all the lights that light the way are blinding

There are many things that I would like to say to you

I don't know how

 

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one who saves me ?

And after all

You're my wonderwall

 

I said maybe

You're gonna be the one who saves me ?

And after an

You're my wonderwall

 

Said maybe

You're gonna be the one that saves me

You're gonna be the one that saves me

You're gonna be the one that saves me

^Yeah, I love Wonderwall. It will always be a classic.

But if we're talking love songs here, this one's undoubtedly by personal favourite.

 

Here, There And Everywhere - The Beatles

 

To lead a better life,

I need my love to be here.

 

Here, making each day of the year

Changing my life with a wave of her hand

Nobody can deny that there's something there.

 

There, running my hands through her hair

Both of us thinking how good it can be

Someone is speaking but she doesn't know he's there.

 

I want her everywhere

and if she's beside me I know I need never care.

But to love her is to need her

 

Everywhere, knowing that love is to share

each one believing that love never dies

watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there.

 

I want her everywhere

and if she's beside me I know I need never care.

But to love her is to need her.

 

Everywhere, knowing that love is to share

each one believing that love never dies

watching her eyes and hoping I'm always there.

 

I will be there, and everywhere.

Here, there and everywhere.

 

-----------------

Tugs at the heartstrings every time.

^ooh, that was john lennon's favorite song paul mccartney ever wrote, along with "for no one" (one of my all-time favorites) :D.

 

i could post in this thread forever and not run out of songs, but this is probably my other ultimate favorite along with "wonderwall" :nice:

 

Words are flying out like

endless rain into a paper cup

They slither while they pass

They slip away across the universe

Pools of sorrow waves of joy

are drifting thorough my open mind

Possessing and caressing me

 

Jai guru deva om

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

 

Images of broken light which

dance before me like a million eyes

That call me on and on across the universe

Thoughts meander like a

restless wind inside a letter box

they tumble blindly as

they make their way across the universe

 

Jai guru deva om

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

 

Sounds of laughter shades of life

are ringing through my open ears

exciting and inviting me

Limitless undying love which

shines around me like a million suns

It calls me on and on across the universe

 

Jai guru deva om

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Nothing's gonna change my world

Jai guru deva

Jai guru deva

"across the universe," in case you didn't catch that. i prefer the version on the let it be...naked re-release.

Ofcourse.... Coldplay - A Message.. :)

 

My song is love

Love to the loveless, shown

And it goes up

You don't have to be alone

 

Your heavy heart

Is made of stone

And it's so hard to see you clearly

You don't have to be on your own

You don't have to be on your own

 

And I'm not gonna take it back

Well I'm not gonna say I don't mean that

Your the target that I'm aiming at

And I get that message home

 

My song is love

My song is love, unknown

And I'm on fire for you, clearly

You don't have to be alone

You don't have to be on your own

 

And I'm not gonna take it back

And I'm not gonna say I don't mean that

Your the target that I'm aiming at

But I'm nothing on my own

Got to get that message home

 

And I'm not gonna stand and wait

Not gonna leave it until it's much too late

On a platform I'm gonna stand and say

That I'm nothing on my own

And I love you, please come home

 

My song is love, is love unknown

And I've got to get that message home

And I'd give up forever to touch you

Cuz I know that you feel me somehow

You're the closest to heaven that I'll ever be

And I don't want to go home right now

 

And all I can taste is this moment

And all I can breathe is your life

Cuz sooner or later it's over

I just don't want to miss you tonight

 

And I don't want the world to see me

Cuz I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

 

And you can't fight the tears that ain't coming

Or the moment of truth in your lies

When everything feels like the movies

Yeah, you'd bleed just to know you're alive

 

And I don't want the world to see me

Cuz I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

 

And I don't want the world to see me

Cuz I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

 

And I don't want the world to see me

Cuz I don't think that they'd understand

When everything's made to be broken

I just want you to know who I am

 

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

I just want you to know who I am

Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls

I love "Iris," "Wonderwall," and "Transatlanticism." I can't really think of any songs right now.

I think U2 have some amazing love songs too. One, With Or Without You etc etc.

Iris by the Goo Goo Dolls

yes. :heart: :wacky:

 

Metallica - One

 

Metallica - Nothing Else Matters

 

and Metallica - Until It Sleeps

I really love Lie In The Sound by Trespassers William. It's insanely beautiful and the singer's voice is amazing.

 

 

 

I love you more than I should

So much more than is good for me

More than is good

 

Oh the timing is cruel

Oh I need and don't want to need

More than I should

 

I am falling, say my name

And I'll lie in the sound

What is love, but whatever

My heart needs around

 

Oh my sheet is so thin

So I say I can't sleep because

It's so very cold

 

Oh but I know what I need

And if you were just near to me

Would you go...

 

I am falling, say my name

And I'll lie in the sound

What is love, but whatever

My heart needs around

 

I am falling, say my name

And I'll lie in the sound

What is love, but whatever

My heart needs around

 

And it needs you too much now

Travis - Why Does It Always Rain On Me? (woohoo, not Coldplay!)

Kind of a long one, but interesting as they never actually use the "L-word"; they don't really need to.

 

 

I can't sleep tonight

Everybody's saying everything is alright

Still I can't close my eyes

I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights

Sunny days, where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning

 

I can't stand myself

I'm being held up by invisible men

Still life on a shelf when

I've got my mind on something else

Sunny days, oh where have you gone

I get the strangest feeling you belong

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning

 

Oh where did the blue sky go?

Oh and why is it raining so?

It's so cold

 

I can't sleep tonight

Everybody's saying everything is alright

Still I can't close my eyes

I'm seeing a tunnel at the end of all of these lights

Sunny days, where have you gone?

I get the strangest feeling you belong

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning

 

Oh where did the blue sky go?

Oh and why is it raining so?

It's so cold

 

Why does it always rain on me?

Is it because I lied when I was seventeen?

Why does it always rain on me?

Even when the sun is shining I can't avoid the lightning

Why does it always rain on me?

Why does it always rain on, oh on...

The Luckiest by Ben Folds

http://youtube.com/watch?v=Ac70adKQSJc

I don't get many things right the first time

In fact, I am told that a lot

Now I know all the wrong turns, the stumbles and falls

Brought me here

 

And where was I before the day

That I first saw your lovely face?

Now I see it everyday

And I know

 

That I am

I am

I am

The luckiest

 

What if I'd been born fifty years before you

In a house on a street where you lived?

Maybe I'd be outside as you passed on your bike

Would I know?

 

And in a white sea of eyes

I see one pair that I recognize

And I know

 

That I am

I am

I am

The luckiest

 

I love you more than I have ever found a way to say to you

 

Next door there's an old man who lived to his nineties

And one day passed away in his sleep

And his wife; she stayed for a couple of days

And passed away

 

I'm sorry, I know that's a strange way to tell you that I know we belong

That I know

 

That I am

I am

I am

The luckiest

 

Just beautiful. Gives me a big lump in my throat, and that last verse makes me cry every time.

bump

 

well i still find the one i posted nice.... but i'm not so into that band now....

now i would play some playlist :wink3: (there was a thread about that, but i can't seem to find it)

 

anyways is so surprising to know that some songs we find are :love: songs aren't really that. :thinking:

Sometimes you can't make it on your own - u2

This is silly,how can you pick just one song?? :dozey:

Hmm...Flowerstand man, in my opinion, is one of the best love songs on Earth.

 

Dido ft. Faithless

Lyrics...

 

'Bout a month ago I'd never seen your face

I'd never heard your voice

'Bout a month ago

I am a careful hunter

And I had to search

Before I found your love

'Bout a month ago

Are you my boy or the Flowerstand Man

You bought such colour to this place

Are you my boy or the Flowerstand Man

With you I am laid back

I don't care if every River runs so dry

I don't care if every Species were to die

I don't care about the Ozone layer

I wouldn't notice if it wasn't there

Oh no I don't care if we sell Coke to Africa

I don't care about apartheid

I wouldn't notice if it all get better

I don't care about the starving who've died

Your my boy when the way you live and breathe

I don't care about anything but you

Your my boy when the way you live and breathe

I don't care about anything but you

Take me home

 

Dido is good.

Shit these are all great songs.

Come and see

I swear by now Im playing time

I against my troubles

Im coming slow but speeding

Do you wish a dance and while im

In the front

The play on time is won

But the difficulty is coming here

 

I will go in this way

And find my own way out

I wont tell you to stay

But Im coming to much more

Me

All at once the ghosts come back

Reeling in you now

What if they came down crushing

Remember when I used to play for

All of the loneliness that nobody

Notice now

Im begging slow Im coming here

Only waiting I wanted to stay

I wanted to play

I wanted to love you

 

Im only this far

And only tomorrow leads my way

 

Im coming waltzing back and moving into your head

Please, I wouldnt pass this by

I would take any more than

What sort of man goes by

I will bring water

Why wont you ever be glad

It melts into wonder

I came in praying for you

Why wont you run

In the rain and play

Let the tears splash all over you

 

Share the time again

I spend with you

A friend is always good to have

But a lover's kiss is better than angels raining down at me

I dream of you at times when your by my side

Dream you're not just like you are

So troubled and doubling my pain

Just one more tear

You shed for me

I wish that I could climb inside your mind

And spend some time and hug and hold you

And mold you into what I'd like

But no I can't do this

Just a kiss to spend a while by you

And your familiar smile and voice

 

I lay awake

Then you lean back and smiling

On you

Most everything you do for me, I say

And the while let's make our way

And feel warm

In the middle of this storm with you

Like an angel

 

Oh, what the friends say is good is right

I say

When you were again

And you were my friend

Before the lie

This one

Say yes I do

And with you

Sometimes

 

But while I do my best

With all the rest I leave to you

Can't wait for the hour

And when two things become this

All this trouble from a kiss from you, I'll do it

And then you come up smiling

And I'm thrown

Into I get a little storm with you, I'll do it

 

Always

Lover, line up and yeah

The road to you is long and I've been on it for a while

And a need a warm embrace

I'll take a break

And say I want to leave you awake

 

Always

 

So here we are tonight, you and me together

The storm outside, the fire is bright

And in your eyes I see whats on my mind

Youve got me wild, turned around inside

And then desire, see, is creeping up heavy inside here

And do you feel the same way as I do now

Now lets make this an evening

Lovers for a night, lovers for tonight

Stay here with me, love, tonight

Just for an evening

When we make our passion pictures

You and me twist up as secret creatures

And well stay here

Tommorrow go back to being friends

 

Go back to being friends, but tonight lets be lovers, we kiss and sweat

Well turn this better thing

To the best

Of all we can offer, just a rogue kiss

Tangled tongues and lips,

See me this way

Im turning and turning for you

Girl, just tonight

 

Float away here with me

An evening just wait and see

But tommorrow go back to your man

Im back to my world

And were back to being friends

Wait and see me,

Tonight lets do this thing

All we are is waisting hours until the

Sun comes up its all ours

On our way here

Tommorrow go back to being friends

 

Go back to being friends

Tonight lets be lovers, say you will

And hear me call, soft-spooken

Whispering love

A thing or two I have to say here

Tonight lets go all the way then

Love Ill see you

 

Just for this evening

Lets strip down, trip out at this

One evening starts with a kiss

Run away

 

And tommorrow

Back to being friends

Lovers...love...lovers

Just for tonight, one night...love you

And tommorrow say goodbye

'Transatlanticism' by DCFC without a doubt. Especially since I saw it performed live... :bigcry: :heart:

 

The Atlantic was born today and I'll tell you how

The clouds above opened up and let it out

 

I was standing on the surface of a perforated sphere

When the water filled every hole

And thousands upon thousands made an ocean

Making islands where no island should go

Oh, no

 

Most people were overjoyed; they took to their boats

I thought it less like a lake and more like a moat

The rhythm of my footsteps crossing flatlands to your door

Have been silenced forevermore

The distance is quite simply much too far for me to row

It seems farther than ever before

Oh, no

 

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

 

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

I need you so much closer

 

So come on, come on

So come on, come on

So come on, come on

So come on, come on
