No One Will Ever Leave You Again as Long as Were Together
Picture this: You've orchestrated the perfect at-home engagement for your significant other, featuring candles, wine, and a lovingly dwelling-cooked (or lovingly ordered via app) dinner. Simply just as your person texts y'all that they're on their way, y'all realize that you have no thought what sort of music to play to retain the romantic ambient. Afterward all, y'all tin't have your early on 2000s guilty pleasure songs come up up on shuffle while you're trying to stare lovingly into your partner'due south eyes (nil ruins the mood like the distinctive "youuuuuu" at the beginning of "Soulja Boy." And yes, that example is based on a truthful story).
Anyway, I've got you covered with my list of the most beautiful, hopeful, and achingly romantic songs ever written (in my humble opinion). You'll have your crush/partner/Bumble engagement swooning.
"ROS" - Mac Miller
Virtually romantic lyrics: "I'thousand in your heart, I'm in your dream/ And then fuck the world information technology's you and me"
Rationale: When the outside globe becomes brutal, many couples plough inward and develop that united states of america-against-the-earth mindset. In "ROS," Mac Miller captures what information technology's similar to experience shut to someone, spending much of this song describing the little things he loves virtually his partner, like her "stained glass" eyes, butterscotch-scented peel, and kiwi-flavored lips. The lyrics are intimate in every style, and Mac delivers them with his feature rawness.
"These Arms of Mine" - Otis Redding
Most romantic lyrics: "These arms of mine, they are lonely/ Lonely and feeling blue/ These arms of mine, they are yearning/ Yearning from wanting you lot"
Rationale: This song hits me right in the chest. It'southward impossible not to experience your arms and chest agonized like Reddings' when he sings about burning to hold his lover. The music crescendos around his smooth voice every bit he begs, "And if you lot would let them hold you/ Oh, how grateful I would be." It's such a sweetness, earnest plea for love, and its focus on physicality is pretty sexy, also.
"Ex Factor" - Lauryn Hill
Most romantic lyrics: "See, no i loves you more than me/ and no one ever will"
Rationale: No i knows how to obliterate me emotionally quite similar Lauryn Hill does. In "Ex Cistron" (and on this whole album, let's be real), she'southward vulnerable, baring all her devotion to her beau. We recognize straightaway that her relationship is toxic, but Colina'south honesty is so beautiful that we apprehensive listeners have no selection just to sit, transfixed, and mind.
"Skinny Dear" - Bon Iver
Most romantic lyrics: "Told my love to wreck information technology all/ Cut out all the ropes and allow me fall"
Rationale: When this song came out in 2007, I was in middle school. I could not terminate singing it equally I traipsed through my firm, most-tears as I crooned near "the sink of blood and crushed veneer," equally though my twelve years on earth had been rife with tragic love affairs.
Nevertheless, this song still holds up. Bon Iver is a master at depicting what it's like to fully surrender yourself to someone while aware that they may injure y'all in the end. I however sing this song while I lounge around my little studio apartment, drawing on real-life experiences this time, though I assure you that none of them involved blood-filled sinks or crushed veneers.
"Leather and Lace" - Stevie Nicks & Don Henley
Most romantic lyrics: "Lovers forever, face to confront/ My city, your mountains/ Stay with me, stay/ I demand you to beloved me/ I need you today/ Give me to me your leather, take from me my lace"
Rationale: This is Stevie Nicks' lyricism at its most poignant. She wrote "Leather and Lace" herself and then performed it with Don Henley (of The Eagles) while they were dating. This duet is beautiful in and of itself, but their chemistry and passion for each other makes it all the more than impactful. An ex played this for me once, unprompted, and I recall thinking, My God, dude. Why would you do this to me?
Wrecked.
The Way You Look This evening" - Frank Sinatra
Most romantic lyrics: "Lovely, never, never change/ go on that breathless charm/ won't yous please accommodate it?/ 'Cause I love you lot/ Just the way you await tonight"
Rationale: Ah, yes. The vocal that plays at every wedding on earth. Pop songs are popular for a reason, though, and this i endures because of the accepting, unconditional sort of love that it depicts. In addition to Sinatra'due south version, I'm likewise partial to Fred Astaire'due south rendition in the 1936 film Swing Time and the sweet yet natural language-in-cheek visuals go on with information technology.
"Everlasting Calorie-free" - The Blackness Keys
Most romantic lyrics: "Permit me be your everlasting low-cal/ Your railroad train going away from pain/ Dearest is the coal that makes this train roll/ Permit me be your everlasting light"
Rationale: If y'all read the lyrics without the music, the whole vocal sounds kind of like a belatedly nineteenth century poem. The honey in this song is then pure and hopeful, and yous'll definitely gain cool-points by playing The Black Keys on a starting time date.
"To Know Him Is To Dearest Him" - Amy Winehouse
Most romantic lyrics: "To know, know, know him/ Is to love, dearest, dear him/ Only to see that smiling/ Makes my life worthwhile"
Rationale: No i does unbridled love similar Amy Winehouse. Her soulful phonation takes middle stage in this Phil Spector cover, and if you lot're non already in love, it volition brand you want to be.
"Like Real People Do" - Hozier
Most romantic lyrics: "I will not enquire you where you came from/ I will not ask yous, neither should you/ Love, merely put your sweet lips on my lips/ We should simply kiss like real people do"
Rationale: Hither, Hozier is trying to convince his love involvement to forget that they both have pasts (who doesn't?) and to just dear him. At that place'due south a sense that both people in the song consider themselves odd in some way (over again, who doesn't?), and that they've been searching for partners like each other for ages. "Like Real People Practise" reminds us of how miraculous it feels to dearest and be loved back.
"Can't Take My Eyes Off You lot" - Franki Valli & The Iv Seasons
Near romantic lyrics: "You lot're merely too good to be true/ Tin't take my optics off of you/ You lot'd be similar sky to touch/ I wanna concord yous so much"
Rationale: To quote every Boomer from my dwelling state of New Jersey: They just don't make 'em similar this anymore. And it's true―this song manages to residual emotional and sexual yearning without being crude.
And just... the gratitude Valli feels when he sings almost loving his daughter then much that he thanks God he'due south live. My Lord. They really merely do not make 'em quite similar this anymore.
"Forrest Gump" - Frank Ocean
Most romantic lyrics: "My fingertips and my lips/ They burn from the cigarettes/ Forrest Gump, y'all run my mind, boy/ Running on my mind, male child"
Rationale: This is Frank Ocean'southward most criminally underrated song and I will fight anyone who has anything negative to say about it. In fact, I once fabricated a very loud, spirited defense of this song when I was in loftier school, correct after Ocean's ill-received performance of it at the 2013 Grammys (opens in new tab).
The song is told from the perspective of Jenny in the 1994 film Forrest Gump. It'due south nigh a broken, tired person coming back to their pure, enduring love after a bang-up deal of time has passed. It'due south especially meaningful, in my opinion, because Body of water penned the song in the wake of his very public coming-out.
"Take Me The Fashion I Am" - Ingrid Michaelson
Nearly romantic lyrics: "'Cause I beloved you more than I could always promise/ And you take me the way I am"
Rationale: What a throwback! Ingrid Michaelson was responsible for some of the sweetest manic-pixie-dream-girl love songs of the early on 2000s, and this one was her most popular. Michaelson rejoices in having found a partner who loves her, flaws and all, and she responds in kind, promising to repair what her partner breaks and buy him Rogaine when his hair starts falling out. It's a promise to love someone forever.
"I'1000 Not Dead" - P!nk
Most romantic lyrics: "Correct beyond the cigarette and the devilish grinning/You're my crack of sunlight/ Y'all tin can do the math a thousand means/ But you can't erase the facts/ That others come and others go/ Merely you e'er come dorsum"
Rationale: This is my favorite era of P!nk's music. In "I'grand Not Expressionless," she writes a frank, unapologetic love song near beingness a flawed human being deeply in dear with another flawed human being. Waxing poetic about her and her boyfriend's (her future husband, Cary Hart, by the manner) tattoos and alluding to her own mental illness, P!nk eschews all tired clichés about love in favor of something far more than authentic and affecting.
"Hannah Hunt" - Vampire Weekend
Most romantic lyrics: "A man of faith said hidden eyes could see what I was thinkin'/ I just smiled and told him/ That was merely true of Hannah"
Rationale: Oh, Ezra Koenig, how yous wound me with your beautiful words! In this song, our narrator seems to be moving effectually the U.Due south. with his dearest Hannah until she grows homesick for the eastward coast. Having lived in New England for effectually seven years, I'chiliad partial to this song for its "freezing beaches" references, but information technology's as well a gentle tribute to the style time glides abroad when you're with someone you lot dearest.
"A Song For You" - Donny Hathaway
Almost romantic lyrics: "I love y'all in a place/ Where there's no space or time/ I love y'all for my life/ You're a friend of mine/ And when my life is over/ Think when we were together"
Rationale: There have been many versions of this song, but this i's my favorite. It was as well Amy Winehouse's favorite. Donny Hathaway sings this with such feeling that one can't assistance but feel he's reciting a memoir when he sings his apology to a woman he neglected to settle downwards with because he was too decorated performing around the world.
"Maps" - Yes Yeah Yeahs
Virtually romantic lyrics: "Don't stray/ My kind's your kind/ I'll stay the same."
Rationale: Yes, this song is ninety percent just Karen O singing "Await, they don't dearest you like I love you," but it's so powerful! If yous say something the correct way, and the accompanying music is adept plenty, there's no need to embellish much more. Proof: Beyoncé clearly nods to this song in her 2016 unmarried "Hold Up." "Maps" endures, over a decade later, beyond genres.
"If I Ain't Got You lot" - Alicia Keys
Most romantic lyrics: "Some people want diamond rings/ Some but want everything/ Simply everything means nothing/ If I ain't got you lot"
Rationale: This vocal is all the more touching when yous recall that she wrote it merely every bit she was starting time to get famous. She promises that her renown―the fruit of all her labor―forth with promises of riches, jewelry, or endless life would all hateful nothing if she didn't have her man.
"Pine Tree Lines" - Told Camber
Most romantic lines: "I am the girl my parents made/ Why don't you lot honey me anyway/ 'Cause I beloved the fashion you take up infinite"
Rationale: Devastating genius. Pb singer Felix Walworth delivers this vocal and then earnestly that his voice literally cracks during that last line. I've never heard a simpler or more startlingly accurate depiction of adoration than loving the way someone takes up space.
"Inevitable" - Shakira
Almost romantic lyrics: "To be even more honest/ No ane thinks near you/ The way I do" (Translated from Spanish)
Rationale: Shakira spends nearly of this vocal laying out all her imperfections―that she doesn't know how to make java, that she doesn't understand soccer, that she oversleeps, etc.―and then proceeds to enquire her man to love her anyway.
"I Found Y'all" - Alabama Shakes
Near romantic lyrics: "I call back all them lonely days/ I traveled out on my own/ Then you brought me everything/ Y'all made my house a home"
Rationale: This is a celebration of finally finding your person. So who amend to listen to it with than your person? Romantic, indeed.
"Rag Doll" - Franki Valli & The Four Seasons
Most romantic lines: "I'd change her deplorable rags/ Into glad rags if I could/ My folks won't allow me/ 'Cause they say that she's no good."
Rationale: Another Four Seasons vocal, yes. I'chiliad from Bailiwick of jersey. Sue me.
Franki Valli declares his unconditional love for a girl much poorer than he is, fantasizing almost replacing her tattered clothes with lace and finery. In spite of her poverty, he ends the song past crying, "I love you just the way you are."
He wants to requite everything to someone who tin offer him nothing material. All he wants is her.
"Since I've Been Loving You" - Led Zeppelin
Almost romantic lyrics: "Simply infant, since I've been loving yous, yeah/ I'one thousand about to lose my worried mind/ Oh, yeah"
Rationale: Homo, these lyrics await and then underwhelming when written down sans musical accessory. Information technology'due south tragic.
What makes this song so romantic, to me, is the organ and bass work by John Paul Jones pair with Robert Plant's searing vocals. Information technology's a power dejection song that hits you right in the gut. If desperate desire were a sound, this would exist it.
"You Got Me" - Erykah Badu and The Roots
Virtually romantic lines: "If you lot don't worry 'tour where/ I been or who I saw or/ What social club I went to with my homies/ Baby, don't worry, you know that you got me"
Rationale: I cried when I saw this alive. Erykah reassures her young man during the chorus that she'll e'er be loyal to him, while Black Thought (lead MC of The Roots) uses his verses to tell the story of a lifelong romance. It's the best love song in hip hop, hands down.
"(You lot Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman - Aretha Franklin
Most romantic lyrics: "When my soul was in the lost and found/ You came forth to claim it/ I didn't know just what was incorrect with me/ 'Til your kiss helped me name it"
Rationale: We should heal ourselves rather than await effectually for someone to heal us, but that doesn't mean that dear tin can't be a healing experience. It's really romantic to give thanks someone for making y'all feel good, and that's precisely what this song (written by the flawless Carole Male monarch) is about.
"Jade" - Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros
Most romantic lyrics: "We can't help just follow, she's Buddha, but watch her/ She moves like an sometime gypsy adult female but swears she's a girl/ And all that she asks we'll let her/ For Jade is the daughter of the hr"
Rationale: Alex Ebert wrote this song for Jade Castrinos when they were both yet dating and nonetheless the frontpeople of Edward Sharpe and the Magnetic Zeros. The song is a tranquillity love letter to Castrinos―you could imagine Ebert singing it to her at night by the campfire while the rest of the band is comatose (that's this band's vibe, really). Information technology'south a shame that nosotros no longer become to scout the sugariness relationship between these talented musicians, but at to the lowest degree we'll ever accept this hippie honey vocal.
"Wild Horses" - The Rolling Stones
Most romantic lyrics: "Graceless lady/ You know who I am/ Yous know I can't let you/ Slide through my easily/ Wild horses/ Couldn't drag me away"
Rationale: One of the wildest bands of the '60s and '70s as well happened to write one of the nearly poignant songs virtually beloved and devotion. This is virtually a long, deep intimacy between two people, and of beingness physically unable to resist the person you adore.
"Jim Bogart" - The Forepart Bottoms
Most romantic lyrics: "I would slumber improve on your floor/ Than I would e'er in my bed/ And if your carpet makes my face itch/ It'd still be heaven in my head"
Rationale: "Jim Bogart" opens with the above lyrics, sung with lead vocalist Brian Sella's signature raw vocals. He abandons all pride in his honey for this girl, promising to practice his guitar every nighttime, to sleep on her floor without complaint, and to to ignore his doctor's advice―all to win her love. We shouldn't have to debase ourselves for beloved (*rolls eyes* yep, yeah yeah), but this is art. And if we're beingness honest, this sentiment is relatable for anyone who's prayed for their love to be reciprocated.
"Loving Yous" - Elvis Presley
Most romantic lyrics: "If I'm seen with someone new/ Don't exist bluish, don't y'all be blue/ I'll be true-blue, I'll be true/ Always true, true to you"
Rationale: Elvis tells his dearest not to get jealous or to believe the hype around him and other women, reassuring her that she'south the 1 for him. Although multiple sources have claimed that Elvis did, indeed, cheat on his wife, Priscilla, this remains his sweetest love song.
"Melissa" - The Allman Brothers Band
Most romantic lyrics: "Knowing many, loving none/ Bearin' sorrow, havin' fun/ But back dwelling he'll ever run/ To sweet Melissa"
Rationale: Here, the Allman Brothers sing about a traveling musician who tin't become over his sweetheart no matter how many other women he meets. She ever ends up resurfacing in his listen, and somewhen, he always returns to her.
"My Old Man" - Joni Mitchell
Most romantic lyrics: "He'due south my sunshine in the morning/ He's my fireworks at the terminate of the day/ He's the warmest chord I always head/ Play that warm chord, play and stay, babe"
Rationale: Mitchell's soaring mezzo-soprano meanders through a portrait of her relationship in this song, insisting throughout that, "We don't need no piece of paper from the city hall." She's saying that she doesn't need external validation of the human relationship―this man gives her all she needs to experience secure in their bond.
"Devil In a New Dress" - Kanye Westward, Rick Ross
Most romantic lyrics: "Put your easily to the constellations/ The way you look should be a sin, you my sensation"
Rationale: Kanye W is a pretty polarizing figure, but this is even so i of my favorite albums of all time. It's a bittersweet tribute to his infamous relationship with Amber Rose, and this song encapsulates the often-sexy, ever-complicated connectedness betwixt two people who aren't skilful for each other, yet tin can't stay away from one some other.
"Love of My Life (An Ode to Hip Hop)" - Erykah Badu, Common
Nearly romantic lyrics: "Simply that is all behind me/ 'Cause now there is no other/ My love is his and his is mine/ A friend became the/ Love of my life"
Rationale: Conventional advice tells us to fall in dearest with someone who tin can be our friend, besides. This song is about ii lifelong all-time friends who find their way back to each other subsequently fourth dimension spent apart. With her famously beguiling vocalisation, Erykah Badu captures the joy of being truly known by one's partner.
"A Lord's day Kind of Love" - Etta James
Near romantic lyrics: "I want a Sunday kind of love/ A love to last past Sat nighttime/ I desire to know it's more than love at get-go sight"
Rationale: We've all been at this point before. If Etta James were to have written this vocal today, she would have been explaining that she was sick of ane-night-stands and Tinder/Bumble/Hinge dates that go nowhere. She'd exist saying she was tired of sweaty strangers in bars shouting into her ear, over deafening music, asking if she wants to take a shot.
Instead, she'd want something substantial. Someone to relax and binge Schitt'due south Creek reruns with on the weekends.
May we all discover that Sunday kind love.

"Babe I'm Yours" - Arctic Monkeys
Most romantic lyrics: "Infant, I'g yours/ And I'll be yours until the stars fall from the sky/ Yours until the rivers all run dry/ In other words, until I dice"
Rationale: This song sounds like it was written in the '50s or '60s. In some means, information technology'south your run-of-the-manufacturing plant slow song, but in that location's something charming about the Chill Monkeys being the ones to perform this retro pledge of devotion.
"She Volition Be Loved" - Maroon 5
Most romantic lyrics:"I don't mind spendin' everyday / Out on your corner in the pourin' rain"
Rationale:I recollect listening to this song in middle school, wishing that the boy I had a beat on would love me enough to stand outside my window in the rain. In retrospect, that would have been awkward and inconvenient to explicate to my mother, and these days I would probably find such behavior creepy (when I'one thousand in my pajamas in my apartment, peacefully eating Takis and watching The Sopranos, the last thing I need is a homo standing outside, watching me from the street like something out of The Exorcist), but the sentiment of this song however stands.
"Because the Night" - Patti Smith
Most romantic lyrics: "Come on, now, effort and understand/ The fashion I feel when I'm in your hands/ Take my hand, come undercover/ They tin't hurt you lot now"

"La Vie En Rose" - Edith Piaf

Most romantic lyrics: "Just stay for one more than dark/ One 24-hour interval you're gonna exist my wife/ You'll never have to worry again/ I'yard gonna exist your man"
Rationale: It sounds atomic number 82 singer Brooks Nielsen's now-married woman was getting really sick of his bullshit, and that he wrote this song equally a plea to get her to say. It's poetic, energetic, and hopeful, and information technology would take worked on me, besides, tbh.
"Wouldn't It Be Dainty" - The Beach Boys
Most romantic lyrics: "Wouldn't it exist nice if nosotros were older?/ And so we wouldn't have to wait and so long"
Rationale: This is sung from the perspective of someone who's already certain about who he wants to spend the remainder of his life with. And he's wishing that the residuum of his life could start right now.
"Stay" - Rihanna, Mikky Ekko
Most romantic lyrics: "Not really sure how to feel about it/ Somethin' in the style y'all move/ Makes me feel like I can't live without you"
Rationale: Love isn't a formula. There's no existent logic to why we fall in honey with some people but not others, and Rihanna hits the smash on the head when she says it's simply "something in the way [he] move[due south]." Information technology's reminiscent of The Beatles' song "Something." Speaking of which...
"Something" - The Beatles
Virtually romantic lyrics: "Something in the way she moves / Attracts me like no other lover / Something in the manner she woos me / I don't want to get out her now"

George Harrison was the Beatle who penned information technology, writing that he wasn't sure what exactly triggered his love or whether it would grow. All he knew was that the dearest was there, and that that should be plenty.

"Androgynous" - The Replacements
Near romantic lyrics: "And they dear each other so/ Androgynous/ Closer than nosotros know, love each other then/ Androgynous"
Rationale: This song is about ii not-binary people falling in love, which is pretty cool for a song from 1984. Our main characters, archetypically named Dick and Jane, love each other regardless of gender. The Replacements make a compelling argument nigh why traditional gender roles and wear should make no difference if you're truly in dear with someone.
"I'll Be Seeing You" - Billie Holiday
Most romantic lyrics: "I'll find you in the morning sun/ In every lovely summer'south solar day/ In everything that's right and gay/ I'll always retrieve of you"
Rationale: Y'all know when you're freshly in dearest (or heartbroken), and everything reminds y'all of that person? That'south what this song is about. Everything effectually Holiday―the natural world, a park, a cafe, a carousel―is a fond reminder of her dear.
"Sunday Candy" - Donnie Trumpet & The Social Experiment
Well-nigh romantic lyrics: "You've got to movement it slowly/ Take it in my body like it's holy/ I've been waiting for you for the whole week/ I've been praying for you, you're my Sunday candy"
Rationale: The Social Experiment is the hip hop collective that boasts members such every bit Chance the Rapper and Vic Mensa (the former of which is featured heavily on this song). Jamila Wood performs the chorus to this vocal so sweetly that it'south piece of cake to forget the sexual implications, and she and Chance tell the story of a couple that spends a week at a time missing each other, absorbed in thoughts of one some other until they're finally reunited.
"Come As You Are" - Nirvana
Virtually romantic lyrics: "Come up as you are/ Equally you were/ As I want you to be"
Rationale: In that location are many interpretations of what this song means, ranging from mental wellness to friendship to commentary on inauthenticity. But, to me, "Come up Every bit Yous Are" works as the ultimate grunge honey song; every bit a promise to love and capeesh someone just the style they are.
"Delight, Please, Please" - James Brown
Most romantic lyrics: "Infant please, baby delight, please me/ Infant delight, baby please don't go/ Don't become, I said baby, don't infant/ I love y'all and then"
Rationale: This song is almost entirely comprised of James Brownish repeating "please," and, supposedly, he got a lot of flack from his producers about that before its release. Only, like the Yep Yeah Yeahs' "Maps," this track's magic lies in the passion with which it's delivered–and James Brown is nix if not passionate.
"I Will Always Dearest You" - Dolly Parton
Nigh romantic lyrics: "And I hope life will treat yous kind/ And I promise that you lot have all/ That you ever dreamed of/ Oh, I do wish you joy/ And I wish you happiness/ But to a higher place all this/ I wish you love"
Rationale: Without a incertitude, you're familiar with Whitney Houston's rendition of "I Will Always Love Yous," but I dear Dolly Parton's soft-spoken, land version as well. Where Houston belts, Parton croons, making this a great culling for when you lot want to hear this song on a tranquility evening in.
"Songbird" - Fleetwood Mac
Most romantic lyrics: "And I wish you lot all the love in the earth/ Just most of all, I wish it from myself/ And the songbirds go along singing/ Like they know the score"
Rationale: Fleetwood Mac's members were notorious for hooking up within their ranks, and Christine McVie (author and primary vocalizer on this song) was no exception. This is a unique love song, considering information technology does unconditional dear unlike whatever other: It illustrates how it'southward entirely possible to love someone and want the best for them while accepting, admitting sadly, that yous might not be that best matter.
"First Mean solar day of My Life" - Bright Eyes
Most romantic lyrics: "But I realized I need you/ And I wondered if I could come up home"

Information technology's an exercise in startling honesty, and the result, like the whole anthology, is profound.

Rationale: Originally, the last song on this list was going to be T.I.'southward "Any Y'all Like" because I'm determined that information technology will play at my wedding 1 day (I'm not kidding), simply "Sea of Love" is too romantic to laissez passer up. With minimal instrumentation, Cat Power delivers a brief only heartfelt dear letter whose genius lies in its profound simplicity. 10/10.
