I can't stop postin'! My mind is racin' (along with my heart

)..

Moondance~ Van Morrison

Wonderful Tonight~ Eric Clapton

With Or Without You~ U2

How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)~ James Taylor

Everything I Do~ Bryan Adams

Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman?~ Bryan Adams

Don't Give Up~ Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush

Against All Odds~ Phil Collins

Posession~ Sarah McLachlan

A special shout-out to Unchained Melody by the Righteous Brothers, although, you know, It kinda doesn't do it for me & all, but I couldn't help addin' it!

And please refrain from giggling..

Nights In White Satin~ The Moody Blues

What totally cracks me up is that I'm always saying how much I'm not a ballad fan, yet I have all of these songs I'm listin'! I do love romantic ballads. Ones that I find kinda sappy, however, just elicit a big "ick" from me!

I actually used to know the entire poem at the end of the song. Although I never thought of it as particularly romantic (but that is just me).

Look back and lament
Another day's useless
Energy spent

Impassioned lovers
Wrestle as one
Lonely man cries for love
And has none
New mother picks up
And suckles her son
Senior citizens
Wish they were young

Cold hearted orb
That rules the night
Removes the colours
From our sight
Red is gray and
Yellow white
But we decide
Which is right
And
Which is an Illusion

At Last - Etta James - because I absolutely adore the song.
Sabor a Mi - Many artists - I always liked this song, but it gained extra meaning for me on our wedding day. Susan was dancing with her grandfather for the Father Daughter dance. I danced with her Grandmother. Unbeknownst to me, as I was dancing with Grandma, she told me that the song was her and Grandpa's special song. Further, Grandma told me that I was the first man she had danced with besides Grandpa in 40 years Not even her sons had danced with her! She said she was quite nervous at first, but that she felt very comfortable with me. A definite highlight in my life.
Since I Fell For You - Bob James and David Sanborn (with Al Jarreau on vocals). Yes, I know this is a Lenny Welch song and has been covered countless times. But something about this song (well, the whole "Double Vision" CD) just works.
Slave to Love - Brian Ferry

"Northern Sky" by Nick Drake, probably one of my all time favorite romantic songs
