Amore. I will think about it while rocking out at lunch and make my list.

ok, here is my own personal list (as opposed to someone else's own personal list)... although i haven't yet caught up on sleep, and i don't think i ever will.

but i digresseth eke.

here there & everywhere, the beatles
my love, wings
at last, etta james
unchained melody, the righteous brothers
happy together, the turtles
and i love you so, don mcclean
your song, elton john
tupelo honey, van morrison
annie's song, john denver
my girl, the temptations
i only have eyes for you, the flamingos (and who knows, originally)
and you and i, yes
kathy's song, simon & garfunkel
my cherie amour, stevie wonder
time in a bottle, jim croce
samba pa ti, santana
your own special way, genesis
love reign o'er me, the who
tiny dancer, more elton john
no one can, marillion

i wanted to include close to you by the carpenters and if by bread, but i had the sudden realization that i would be showing the universe just what a sappy dweeb i really am. hell, annie's song shows that all by itself, methinks.

oh, and i thought of a few great songs about love gone wrong or broken hearts, but i'm sure that should be a separate list. i'll bring up the three that came to mind anyway. why? i'm just that way. (babbly, that is.)

if you could read my mind, gordon lightfoot
bell-bottom blues, derek & the dominoes
i need you, america

5.) The Guests - by Leonard Cohen

those who dance, begin to dance
those who weep begin
those who earnestly are lost
are lost and lost again

and no one knows - where the night is going
and no one knows - why the wine is flowing
oh love, I need you, I need you, I need you
I need you here.
I need you now

hey! I like love songs!
15 left!
