What song would you dedicate to your sweetie?

:smt049 I'm starting this sappy thread of songs and poems that you would dedicate to your sweetheart. :smt049

You know how sometimes you listen to a song or read a poem and it just nails EXACTLY how you feel about them? :smt057 Do you have one like that? I have a whole collection on my laptop!!

Here's mine:

Can I be your angel?
You taught me to trust,
You taught me to love,
You taught me about the world,
You showed me what I could be.
Can I be your angel?
As I know you shall forever hold me,
Can I kiss your lips?
Only yours,
Can I forever stay?

Can I be your angel?
As you granted me wings,
So I can fly the highest skies,
So I can look down on what was,
What now is.

Can I be your angle?
For you see who I am,
You see my soul,
Underneath my skin,
Can I be your angel?

And this is how I think he feels about me:

A Song Unsung by James Taylor

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I needed the shelter of someone's arms, and there you were
I needed someone to understand my ups and downs, and there you were
With sweet love and devotion
Deeply touching my emotion
I want to stop and thank you baby
I want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

I close my eyes at night
Wondering where would I be without you in my life
Everything I did was just a bore
Everywhere I went it seems I'd been there before
But you brighten up for me all of my days
With a love so sweet in so many ways
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

You were better to me than I was to myself
For me, there's you and there ain't nobody else
I want to stop and thank you baby
I just want to stop and thank you baby

How sweet it is to be loved by you
How sweet it is to be loved by you

 

My husbands birthday is at the end of the month. I asked him what he wanted and he said he wanted me to sing him a song. It took me by surprise because I am not a singer, not even one of my remotest fantasies. So I was looking and decided to sing Have I Told You Lately by Rod Stewart, such a beautiful song and it fits us to a tee.

Have I Told You Lately written by Van Morrison

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you theres no one else above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles thats what you do

For the morning sun in all its glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
You fill my life with laughter
And somehow you make it better
Ease my troubles thats what you do
Theres a love thats divine
And its yours and its mine like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To Allah to Allah

Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you theres no one else above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away all my sadness
Ease my troubles thats what you do

Theres a love thats divine
And its yours and its mine like the sun
And at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray
To Allah, to Allah

And have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you theres no one else above you
You fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles thats what you do
Take away all my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles thats what you do
Take away all my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles thats what you do

 

I have two:

Cupid - Sam Cooke

Cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight back to my lover's heart for me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Now I don't mean to bother you
But I'm in distress
There's danger of me losing all of my happiness
For I love a girl who doesn't know I exist
And this you can fix So...

Cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Cupid with your arrow make her love strong for me
I promise I wll love her until eternity
I know between the two of us her heart we can steal
help me if you will So...

Cupid draw back your bow
And let your arrow go
Straight to my lover's heart for me
Cupid please hear my cry
And let your arrow fly
Straight to my lover's heart for me

Cupid
don't you hear me
calling you
I need you
Cupid
help me

Quincy Jones - One Hundred Ways

Compliment what she does
Send her roses just because
If it's violins she loves let them play
Dedicate her fav'rite song and hold
Her closer all night long
Lover her today
Find one hundred ways

Don't forget there could be
An old lover in her memory
If you need her so much more
Why don't you say
Maybe she has it in her mind
That she's just wasting her time
Ask her to stay
Find one hundred ways

Bein' cool won't help you keep a love warm
You'll just blow your chance
Take the time to open up your heart
That's the secret of romance
Sacrifice if you care
Buy her some moonlight to wear
If there's one more star she wants
Go all the way
In your arms tonight
She'll reflect that she owes you
The sweetest of debts if she wants to pay
Find one hundred ways

In your arms tonight
She'll reflect that she owes you
The sweetest of debts if she wants to pay
Find one hundred ways
Ya gotta believe it whoa
Love her today
Find one hundred ways

 

Awwwwww....

 

Didn't I blow your mind this time by the delfonics

gave my heart and soul to you, girl
Didn't I do it baby.... didn't I do it baby

Gave you the love you never knew, girl
Didn't I do it baby... didn't I do it baby

I've tried so many times and that's no lie
It seems to make you laugh each time I cry

Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I, oh
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I,
Listen

I thought that heart of yours was true, girl
Now didn't I think it baby, babe... didn't I think it baby

But this time I'm really leavin' you, girl
Hope you know it baby... hope you know it baby

Ten times or more, yes, I've walked out that door
Get this into your head, there'll be no more

Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I, oh
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I

Didn't I do it baby... didn't I do it baby
Didn't I do it baby... didn't I do it baby

Ten times or more, yes, I've walked out that door
Get this into your head, there'll be no more

Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I, oh
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I
I got to live baby
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I, oh
Didn't I blow your mind this time, didn't I
