7. Beautiful - Gordon Lightfoot

At times I just don't know
How you could be anything but beautiful
I think that I was made for you
And you were made for me

And I know that I won't ever change
'Cause we've been friends
Through rain or shine
For such a long, long time

Laughing eyes and smiling face
It seems so lucky just to have the right
Of telling you with all my might
You're beautiful tonight

And I know that you will never stray
'Cause you've been that way
From day to day
For such a long, long time

And when you hold me tight
How could life be anything but beautiful
I think that I was made for you
And you were made for me

And I know that I won't ever change
'Cause we've been friends
Through rain or shine
For such a long, long time
And I must say it means so much to me
To be the one who's telling you
I'm telling you
That you're beautiful

[discntnt_irny_srcsm]

40. I love Nights/Moody Blues.

I think I'd pick Fields of Gold/Sting. (I'm a big fan of Shape of My Heart, too.)
Also, various versions of Hallelujah. Mostly the one from the movie Lord of War. Jeff Buckley's version (RIP)

[debm55]

41. Thank you very much,discntnt_irny_srcsm. Great song selections.

[johnp3907]

But it’s certainly beautiful.

[debm55]

44. I don't know what is being said either. but it is very romantic. Thank you johnp3907

[NNadir]

43. Cocker, "You are so beautiful," "Into the Mystic" Chaka, "Ain't Nobody" and RL Jones, "My Funny Valentine"

I realize these were not all the original versions, but these are those that make me think of my wife.

[debm55]

[nocoincidences]

46. This is a romantic song to me,

because I lost my partner to cancer 22 years ago, and I know it is usually seen as a sad song.

[debm55]

48. "Caroline" by Jefferson Starship.

&list=RDqs8hlhPXA8U&start_radio=1

[debm55]

70. Thank you very much, generalbetrayus. for sharing your song with us.

[malthaussen]

49. I'll go with something upbeat...

"You Didn't Have to Be So Nice," Lovin' Spoonful.

Some of the lyrics are very touching. "You didn't have to be so nice, I would have liked you anyway," and "You came upon a quiet day, you simply seemed to take your place," being two of my favorites.

-- Mal

[debm55]

73. Thank you very much, I always liked that song, Mal

[ProfessorGAC]

50. Here's 3

And I Love Her - Beatles
Can't Get It Out Of My Head- ELO
Still, You Turn Me On- ELP
I play all 3 of these.

[debm55]

59. Thank you very much ProfessorGAC. I really like all three of your selections. But the one that I would put next to my

choice would be - ELP's Still,You Turn Me On. The song has a unique sound to it. Don't get me wrong I like the others, but SYTMO has a mystical feel to it.

[ProfessorGAC]

66. I Love Singing That One

My version is more like the one Lake did on the live album. Just me and a guitar.
It was written on a 12 string so with my love of 12 string, I had to learn it.

[debm55]

71. Excellent. ProfessorGAC. I will have to look that up on You-Tube. I had most of their albums and saw them in person once

The song touched my heart of a love gone bad. I will always remember it.

[waterwatcher123]

51. A 1000 Years by Christina Perri (brings tears to your eyes).

Unchained Melody
I’ll Still Be Lovin’ You

[debm55]

75. Excellent choices, Alliepoo, Thank you for sharing.

[pandr32]

53. Let's Get it On!Marvin Gaye

One of the best, but also I would bet Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers was responsible for many babies!

[debm55]

72. I absoluletly love Unchained Melody. It was before my time but it is so darn romantic. Marvin Gaye's song is also a

classic, quite different from his previous style.Thank you for posting both of your selections, pandr32.

[debm55]

82. Thank you for sharing with us, LogDog75. Both were very beautiful and romantic songs. I also liked SnowBird by Anne.

[DFW]

83. A very obscure one no one has ever heard of

With good reason, I suspect, as the artist in question rarely wrote such songs:

It's an old recording, and the lyrics may be a little hard to make out, so here they are:

Morning's rays burn and bathe
Invade and glow
The robins know
But my my joy
Comes not from seeing you
Reflect the morning sun
My joy is to see you dressed in candlelight
To see your face by candlelight

Evening falls, princely balls
Silk and suede
Tailor made
But my joy
Comes not from seeing you
Dressed in royal robes
My joy is to see you dressed in Candlelight
To see your face by candlelight
