    For me, it has to be this:

    John Coltrane & Johnny Hartman - My One and Only Love:
    (vocals start 2 minutes in, after the saxophone solo)

    Come into these arms again
    And lay your body down
    The rhythm of this trembling heart
    Is beating like a drum

    It beats for you - It bleeds for you
    It knows not how it sounds
    For it is the drum of drums
    It is the song of songs...

    Once I had the rarest rose
    That ever deigned to bloom.
    Cruel winter chilled the bud
    And stole my flower too soon.

    Oh loneliness - oh hopelessness
    To search the ends of time
    For there is in all the world
    No greater love than mine.

    Love, oh love, oh love...
    Still falls the rain... (still falls the rain)
    Love, oh love, oh, love...
    Still falls the night...
    Love, oh love, oh love...
    Be mine forever.... (be mine forever)
    Love, oh love, oh love....

    Let me be the only one
    To keep you from the cold
    Now the floor of heaven's lain
    With stars of brightest gold

    They shine for you - they shine for you
    They burn for all to see
    Come into these arms again
    And set this spirit free.

    The ancient streets so crowded and narrow
    The winding stairs climb up, up high
    The air tonight hangs sour and heavy
    I'm dying up here love, lie with me lie

    The view electrical and sprawling
    The city lights move out and on and on
    Out there in the halo of the skyline
    My guardian angel looks down upon me

    Fall tonight sweet Paris Rain
    Shower me in her warm kisses

    A burning star over long lost highways
    My fallen love died so young
    And all the gifts you gave I have them
    And all your love I'm still holding onto

    She rides the halo of the skyline
    My fallen sister died so young
    Our last goodbye I wanted to be there
    To bathe the loss from your fading eyes

    Close these sweeping long gray curtains
    The dizzying spiraling heights

    Soft light pours into the room
    Fingers glide over my face
    A voice speaks, a figure moves
    How could I walk these old dim halls again
    How could I leave this room all alone

    When she comes by every morning
    Brings back pink and pale blue orchids
    When she comes by every afternoon
    Piano music weeps quietly
    As May melts into June
    When she comes by every evening
    Lays down beside me softly breathing

    Love Song For a Vampire, so gorgeous and one of my favorite songs ever.

    "Chasing Cars"

    We'll do it all
    Everything
    On our own

    We don't need
    Anything
    Or anyone

    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

    I don't quite know
    How to say
    How I feel

    Those three words
    Are said too much
    They're not enough

    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

    Forget what we're told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life

    Let's waste time
    Chasing cars
    Around our heads

    I need your grace
    To remind me
    To find my own

    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

    Forget what we’re told
    Before we get too old
    Show me a garden that's bursting into life

    All that I am
    All that I ever was
    Is here in your perfect eyes, they're all I can see

    I don't know where
    Confused about how as well
    Just know that these things will never change for us at all

    If I lay here
    If I just lay here
    Would you lie with me and just forget the world?

    Show me how you do that trick
    The one that makes me scream" she said
    "The one that makes me laugh" she said
    And threw her arms around my neck
    "Show me how you do it
    And I promise you I promise that
    I'll run away with you
    I'll run away with you"

    Spinning on that dizzy edge
    I kissed her face and kissed her head
    And dreamed of all the different ways I had
    To make her glow
    "Why are you so far away?" she said
    "Why won't you ever know that I'm in love with you
    That I'm in love with you"

    You
    Soft and only
    You
    Lost and lonely
    You
    Strange as angels
    Dancing in the deepest oceans
    Twisting in the water
    You're just like a dream

    Daylight licked me into shape
    I must have been asleep for days
    And moving lips to breathe her name
    I opened up my eyes
    And found myself alone alone
    Alone above a raging sea
    That stole the only girl I loved
    And drowned her deep inside of me

    You
    Soft and only
    You
    Lost and lonely
    You
    Just like heaven





    That does it for me.

    For me it has to be Eric Clapton and Wonderful Tonight


    It's late in the evening; she's wondering what clothes to wear.
    She puts on her make-up and brushes her long blonde hair.
    And then she asks me, "Do I look all right?"
    And I say, "Yes, you look wonderful tonight."

    We go to a party and everyone turns to see
    This beautiful lady that's walking around with me.
    And then she asks me, "Do you feel all right?"
    And I say, "Yes, I feel wonderful tonight."

    I feel wonderful because I see
    The love light in your eyes.
    And the wonder of it all
    Is that you just don't realize how much I love you.

    It's time to go home now and I've got an aching head,
    So I give her the car keys and she helps me to bed.
    And then I tell her, as I turn out the light,
    I say, "My darling, you were wonderful tonight.
    Oh my darling, you were wonderful tonight."
