The smooth string intro already makes me want to dance around a ballroom and sway to the music. The majestical duet is not only a testament to this couple's talent and love, but also this song shows how love has no bounds. Love can even beat death. The title while somber it states how true love can beat everything even death. This song summons my inner romantic while also giving me a beautiful ballad to sway to under the stars.

This band has many songs that make my heart skip a beat. This one, in particular, brings to mind me and someone I love running away to travel the world. This song makes me jump up and down and dance all night while dreaming of far off places.The idea of being able to drop everything in life and just go somewhere new with someone you love is the most romantic thing in the world, or at least I believe it to be.

This song makes my heart race not only because it is a romantic song about how the girl he loves saves him also because the first time I heard this song the boy I was head over heels for showed it to me. This song reminds me of sitting in the parking lot of my school talking to this boy who I thought didn't even know my name. He and I talked about music for as long as I could remember until I had to go back home. While that conversation did not lead to what I thought would happen it did give me an amazing memory along with a good friend.
5. "Can't Help Falling in Love with You" by Elvis Presley

Elvis is the singer who in my mind has the most beautiful love songs of all time. This song, in particular, is one of his most famous love ballads since it was in the movie Blue Hawaii. The song starts out with Elvis playing his ukulele and singing this to his girlfriend. His charismatic smile and smooth voice melt me every time I hear this beautiful song. This classic declaration of love through song has been revered in the hearts and minds of the world for decades, and I am one of those people. This song calls on my inner romantic once again to spring forward and start daydreaming once again.
