Beautiful - Gordon Lightfoot
Make Love Stay - Dan Fogelberg
I go Crazy - Paul Davis
Your Song - Elton John
Annie's Song - John Denver
If - Bread
I Honestly Love You - Olivia Newton John
Time in a Bottle - Jim Croci
Shadows - Gordon Lightfoot
Just Remember I love you - Firefall

Buy the way if there are any outdoorsy, beautiful, intellectual, artistic, amazing women out there who agree with my selections I am available.

2. What about...

Evergreen, by Striesand. I think that one is awesome. And Longer, by Dan Fogelberg.

[Quixote1818]

3. Evergreen is in my top 20. Dan Fogelberg has a million great love songs.

[OneBlueSky]

4. "And I Love You So" by Don McLean is a great love song . . .

And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know

I guess they understand
How lonely life has been
But life began again
The day you took my hand

And yes I know how lonely life can be
The shadows follow me
And the night won't set me free
But I don't let the evening bring me down
Now that you're around me

And you love me too
Your thoughts are just for me
You set my spirit free
I'm happy that you do

The book of life is brief
And once a page is read
All but love is dead
That is my belief

And I love you so
The people ask me how
How I've lived till now
I tell them I don't know

7. I thought of Don McLean. Vincent is another great DM song.

[The Traveler]

8. "Dancing Shoes" off the Netherlands album

(I married a ballerina, so it kind of speaks to me about us.)

[Blayde Starrfyre]

5. Uhhh

Sorry, but I hate all these songs :) No offense.

My favorite love song? "Lil' Darlin," Count Basie.

[Quixote1818]

6. That's cool if everyone liked these songs the world would be a

very boring place. I am glad there are a lot of different opinions.

9. I Would Add...

Hello Stranger" (or is it "Seems Like a Mighty Long Time"?, help me out here fellow old f*rts!) by Barbara Lewis.
