“Baby I Love Your Way” by Peter Frampton

Song year: 1975

When you fall in love with someone, you want to be around them all the time. You’ll get up early and stay up late just for a quick glimpse of them.

This Peter Frampton classic seems to say it all. And it’s about as gooey romantic as one can get.

When you want to let your significant other know just how special and irresistible, she is, there’s always “Baby I Love Your Way.”

“Wonderful Tonight” by Eric Clapton

Song year: 1977

She looks beautiful. And you can’t take your eyes off her. You’re taken aback by how much she suddenly means to you.

Slowhand’s classic ballad is all about being captivated by your love. And yes, the song does feature some beautiful guitar playing to complement the theme.

“Wonderful Tonight” is a great song for a night on the town, or even a more formal dress-up occasion. For me personally, this is one of the best love songs of all time.

“You’re The Inspiration” by Chicago

Song year: 1984

With the addition of Peter Cetera, Chicago basically wrote the rules for the modern ballad. “You’re The Inspiration” stands at the pinnacle of songs in this vein.

The message is simple – when you fall in love, your love becomes your inspiration. And because of it, it makes you want to be better. So, if you feel like she makes you a better man, this is a great song so share.

Fair warning – you can’t help but hear wedding bells in this tune, so if you aren’t serious, don’t bother sending her this timeless Chicago hit.

“Love Will Keep Us Alive” by Eagles

Song year: 1994

Love is exciting. But there are always ups and downs in every relationship. And fights are inevitable when you’re both serious about making it work.

“Love Will Keep Us Alive” is a song about letting love guide the way. Because sometimes the fights and challenges don’t make a whole lot of sense. But they make you better.

For love that endures, I’d recommend this sappy Eagles number.

“I Just Called To Say I Love You” by Stevie Wonder

Song year: 1984

So, it’s not New Year’s. It’s not Valentine’s Day. It’s not even Independence Day. But you still want to let her know how much you love her.

Well, isn’t that a coincidence. Because Stevie Wonder’s “I Just Called To Say I Love You” follows that narrative to a tee.

When you want to surprise her and let her know how much you care out of the blue, I’d give this song a try.

“No Matter What” by Badfinger

Song year: 1970

This tune has been covered by the likes of The Knack and Def Leppard and has thus been kept alive through the decades.

In that sense, it’s basically a “roots” song, because when you listen to it, you find out it’s a simplistic three-minute rock song. It does have some killer vocals and a strong melody though.

If she can do no wrong in your eyes, dedicate this ditty to her.

“Something Just Like This” by The Chainsmokers & Coldplay

Song year: 2017

In this powerfully emotive song, the narrator seems to be struggling to find his identity. And it might even be in a relationship that’s also struggling to find its expression.

Then again, this is how many relationships begin and even unfold. We may not feel like we measure up, but that doesn’t mean we aren’t worthy. And we may need to find a new self within the relationship.

Sometimes you want “something just like this,” even if you can’t put your finger on exactly what that is. This is how to tell her.

“Make You Feel My Love” by Bob Dylan

Song year: 1997

Dylan is the original wordsmith, and his songwriting has long been held in high regard through the decades.

“Make You Feel My Love” has been covered by plenty of artists you’re sure to know – Adele, Garth Brooks, Keely Clarkson, and more. Yes. It’s just that good.

When things are difficult for her, but you love her anyway, send this song in her direction for encouragement.

“Perfect” by Ed Sheeran

Song year: 2017

As with most Ed Sheeran songs, “Perfect” is an emotive tune with a bit of a backstory. The narrator tells of falling in love as kids but feeling like he’s nevertheless found the perfect woman.

Is it a little too personal to be applicable to your situation? We’ll leave that to you. But for those who can relate, it's perfect.

And there’s no doubt this is a sparkly clean pop song about love.

“Die A Happy Man” by Thomas Rhett

Song year: 2015

Accompanied by a rather familiar sounding chord progression, country singer Thomas Rhett sings about a great night with his girl and how much he loves her.

What if you never see the Northern Lights? What if you never got to go to the Eiffel Tower? In this tune, the narrator says he could “die a happy man” because he’s found his love.

Sometimes you just know when you know. And that’s when this song is for.

“You Send Me” by Sam Cooke, Another Top Love Song For Your Girlfriend

Song year: 1957

Sometimes mistaken for “you saved me,” “You Send Me” is a song about infatuation growing into love, and love growing into the desire to marry.

For a 50s recording, it features pristine production and Cooke’s vocals can be heard loud and clear.

But only share this song with her if you’re serious about her, okay?

“The Book Of Love” by Peter Gabriel

Song year: 1999

In this song, the narrator calls the book of love “long and boring.”

The truth is love doesn’t need to take a shape. It doesn’t need to look like it does in Hollywood films. It doesn't need to be predictable or expected. So long as you love her, everything is okay.

Love can be difficult and strange. And it can be full of longing and expectation. But that’s okay. When the book of love is boring, but she still fascinates you, there’s Peter Gabriel's “The Book Of Love.”

“Just The Way You Are” by Bruno Mars

Song year: 2010

The gap between “24K Magic” and “Just The Way You Are” to me is rather significant, which is why I have trouble taking this Bruno Mars song all that seriously. Not one of my favorites.

But is it romantic? That it is. Because in this song, the narrator talks about just how perfect she is.

When you want to let her know just how amazing she is in your eyes, feel free to pass along this song to her.

“Crush” by Dave Matthews Band

Song year: 1998

The groovy and jazzy “Crush” could be a perfect tune for a private night at home with her.

This song expresses yearning, longing, and maybe even a touch of obsession.

Love can drive you crazy. And it’s okay. You can share that with her too.

“Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” by Frankie Valli

Song year: 1967

A true classic, in my opinion, it doesn’t get a whole lot better than “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” by Frankie Valli.

In this song, we find the narrator quickly falling in love. And he’s looking for a bit of confirmation from that special someone he can’t look away from.

With its declarations of loving and needing, you should probably save this one for a more serious occasion. But it can win you serious points with your girlfriend if your timing's right.

“How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)” by James Taylor

Song year: 1975

“How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved By You)” has got that whimsical, bouncy feel you sometimes find in love songs.

In this song, the narrator shares how good it feels to be loved by her.

If you feel lucky to be with her, you should send this song to your girlfriend and let her know.

“More Than Words” by Extreme

Song year: 1991

This is the song Extreme is most known for, and to be fair, it is a great acoustic ballad with harmonized vocals. And it even sounds romantic.

But I still find it to be a bit of an oddball lyrically. Because the narrator is basically asking her to show her love through action instead of words. Where both seem kind of important.

Then again, love can be messy. And sometimes you do need to be shown love.

If you don’t worry too much about the lyrical content, though, this can be a good romantic song for just about any occasion.

“My Girl” by The Temptations For Your Future Wife

Song year: 1965

Sugary sweet “My Girl” is filled to the brim with classic pop harmonies and is backed with a big rhythm section sound.

Sometimes, she can make you feel like you’re walking on clouds, no matter what might be going on in your life.

If she lifts your spirits and makes your life worth living, let her know with this tune.

“Can’t Stop Lovin’ You” by Van Halen

Song year: 1995

When singer Sammy Hagar joined Van Halen, they started branching out with their musical efforts, leading to songs like “Can’t Stop Lovin’ You,” which is basically a power ballad done the Van Halen way.

In this song, the narrator seems to be begging his girl to stay, because he’s still in love with her.

But as I said, love takes many shapes. Sometimes you need a song like this to win her over again. Keep it in mind for those times when you slip up a little.

“I Want You” by Savage Garden Is A Love Song She'll Love

Song year: 1997

This unforgettable late 90s four-chord wonder brought together vibey soft rock and celestial electronic to create a memorable hook.

“I Want You” is more about being fascinated with someone and wanting to get to know her better than anything else.

But if you’re looking to take things to the next level, she might just appreciate this number.

“Only You Can Love Me This Way” by Keith Urban

Song year: 2009

Ever the romantic, Keith Urban’s “Only You Can Love Me This Way” is a laid-back country ballad about how amazing she is. Which is a little different from songs like “Somebody Like You,” which are more about the exhilaration of love.

If you are sincere in feeling that your girlfriend is the most amazing girl you’ve ever met, there’s a good chance she’ll appreciate this tune.

“Get To You” by Dan Reed Network

Song year: 1988

This funk rocker via Dan Reed Network is all about wanting to get closer to that special girl.

And although it seems to evoke a love at first sight visual, the narrator seems earnest about wanting to fall in love with the girl he’s found.

This song is a strong message to send, but if you time it right, it could prove powerful.

“Your Body Is A Wonderland” by John Mayer

Song year: 2002

You’ll probably want to banish any thoughts or images of John Mayer’s explicitly stated relationship habits.

If you can get that out of your head, what you’ll hear is a gentle but masterfully executed acoustic guitar number that’s sure to make your girlfriend swoon.

Of course, there is a timing for everything. Don’t send her this song upon meeting her unless you want to get slapped!

“With A Little Love” by Harem Scarem

Song year: 1991

Canadian melodic rock band Harem Scarem’s early days were filled with sappy and simplistic AOE classics like “With A Little Love.” The music, the melody, and the harmonies are all solid. The critics didn’t exactly take to the lyrics though.

And to be fair, the lyrics to this tune seem a tad stilted. Which isn’t a problem in the realm of self-expression.

Anyway, for those times when you feel the love is worth holding onto, there’s “With A Little Love.”

“You Are The Sunshine Of My Life” by Frank Sinatra

Song year: 1974

Ol’ Blue Eyes brought his timeless voice to the world of jazz. And in jazz, it’s rare to find a song that’s not about love in some way, shape, or form.

But if you ever feel like you’ve been rescued by your girlfriend, and she’s the sunshine of your life, you could pay tribute to her with this song.

“You Are The Sunshine Of My Love” was originally written by Stevie Wonder.

“A Kiss To Build A Dream On” by Louis Armstrong

Music for your girlfriend

Song year: 1951

“A Kiss To Build A Dream On” is classic slow jazz at its best. Perfect for slow dancing.

The lyrics are simplistic. The narrator is asking for a kiss before she leaves so that he can dream of her while she’s gone.

When you just can’t be without her, share this tune with her.

“When A Man Loves A Woman” by Percy Sledge

Song year: 1966

Sometimes simple is best. “When A Man Loves A Woman” shows just how deep a man’s passion for a woman can run.

Percy’s Sledge’s passionate voice doesn’t hurt one bit either.

“Someone Like You” by Van Morrison

Song year: 1987

Van Morrison’s “Someone Like You” is another song fit for slow dancing.

Do you feel like you’ve spent your whole life looking for someone special? And did it feel like everything fell into place when you finally found her?

Well, that’s the premise behind “Someone Like You.” For all those tender, romantic moments.

“You Make Loving Fun” by Fleetwood Mac

Song year: 1977

“You Make Loving Fun” by Fleetwood Mac is a rock song with a serious groove.

Sometimes, love can seem difficult. When you’ve had your heart broken, you may not even believe things could get better or work out for you.

But then you meet someone special. And she feels like a miracle. If she makes loving fun, turn her onto this song.

“God Only Knows” by The Beach Boys

Song year: 1966

Off The Beach Boy’s experimental album Pet Sounds, “God Only Knows” should sound familiar to most.

In this song, the narrator ponders where he’d be without his girl.

If you feel like she makes you better, have her listen to “God Only Knows.”

“Last Night On Earth” by Green Day

Song year: 2009

In their early punk days, the Beatles-esque “Last Night On Earth” might have been kind of unthinkable for a band like Green Day. But it’s kind of what makes it a good tune.

And it just so happens that it makes for a decent love song too. Because the narrator’s girl means everything to him, and he spends the entire song telling her how much she means to him.

“Yellow” by Coldplay

Song year: 2000

In this song, the narrator describers her vibes as “yellow.” Though vague, romantic intent can certainly be found in this tune.

And sometimes ladies appreciate songs not because of what they say, but how they sound.

For all those times you want to tell your girl that everything is for her.

“Only One” by Yellowcard

Song year: 2005

Pop punk was all the rage around the time of this song’s release, which is colored by a bit of melodrama (emo) too. The song’s sentiments seem genuine though.

If you’ve decided that she’s the only one for you, you can dedicate this song to her.

“Unchained Melody” by The Righteous Brothers

Song year: 1965

While this song has received many treatments through the years, it could easily be said that The Righteous Brothers’ version of “Unchained Melody” is the definitive one.

It’s one of those songs where, even if you don’t remember the title, you’ll almost certainly recognize the tune upon hearing it.

Longing, yearning, and even pining can be a huge part of the “love game.” But if you feel like you’ve finally found her after a long journey, you can encourage her to listen to this song.

“A Groovy Kind Of Love” by Phil Collins

Song year: 1988

With a title like “A Groovy Kind Of Love,” it makes it sound as though the song is going to be an upbeat pop number like the ones Collins became known for. But it betrays in that sense – this is a slow ballad.

The narrator says when he’s around her, everything feels right.

If she makes everything in your world feel right, you’ve got a license to tell her that you’ve got “A Groovy Kind Of Love.”
