Love songs

Dear friend Natassaki invited me to another blogger game: with which song I would say "I love you". The rules are as follows:
1. Pick one or two songs with which you would say "I love you" to your other half or someone that you're interested in.
2. In case you pick two songs, one must be with a male singer(s) and the other with female singer(s).
3. There is no distinction between solo artists or groups. Choose what inspires you the most.

So the very first one that comes to my mind is of course k d lang's "Infinite And Unforeseen":

After
Always
Love becomes
A dream
Infinite and unforeseen

It takes you by surprise
There, before your eyes
A place you've always been
A place you've always been

It takes you by surprise
There, before your eyes
A place you've always been
A place you've always been
Infinite and unforeseen
Infinite and unforeseen

And the second one, from a guy this time: Richard Hawley's "Tonight The Streets Are Ours"

Do you know why you got feelings in your heart
Don't let fear of me then fool you, what you see sets you apart
And there's nothing here to bind you, it's no way for life to start
Do you know that
Tonight the streets are ours
Tonight the streets are ours
These lights in our eyes, they tell no lies

Those people, they got nothing in their souls
And they make our tvs blind us from our visions and our goals
Oh the trigger of time it tricks you so you have no way to grow
But do you know that
Tonight the streets are ours
Tonight the streets are ours
And these lights in our hearts, they tell no lies

And no one else can haunt me the way that you can haunt me
I need to know you want me, I couldn't be without you
And the light that shines around you
No nothing ever matters more than my darling
But tonight the streets are ours

Do you know how to kill loneliness at last
Oh there's so much there to heal dear and make tears things of the past
But do you know that
Tonight the streets are ours
Tonight the streets are ours
And these lights in our street are ours
And tonight the streets are ours
And these lights in our heart, they tell no lies

And the video clip:

Of course, I have to add one more: it may be corny for some, but for me it's one of the best love songs ever for many reasons: Olivia Newton-John's "Hopelessly Devoted To You".

Guess mine is not the first heart broken,
my eyes are not the first to cry I'm not the first to know,
there's just no gettin' over you
Hello, I'm just a fool who's willing to sit around
and wait for you
But baby can't you see, there's nothin' else
for me to do I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide,
since you pushed my love aside I'm not in my head,
hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you,
hopelessly devoted to you
My head is saying "fool, forget him",
my heart is saying "don't let go"
Hold on to the end, that's what I intend to do
I'm hopelessly devoted to you
But now there's nowhere to hide,
since you pushed my love aside I'm not in my head,
hopelessly devoted to you
Hopelessly devoted to you,
hopelessly devoted to you

And a live rendition of it:

This is the Oscars live performance in 1979 (she was ill when she did this)

I can spend many many hours putting up loved songs but I think these are OK for now. I hope you enjoy them!
