Love songs

Have you ever wonder why it is that most of the songs nowadays are about love. In particular loving opposite sex. In earlier centuries it was not such a dominant topic. If you look at classical music, then it rarely if ever has lyrics. And also the names of works are with no emotion attached to it. Like, Ludwig van Beethoven's 5th Symphony or Frédéric Chopin Prelude No. 7.

All of the love songs can be categorized in 3 categories

1. category. A loves B, and B loves A back

For example

Kelly Clarkson - A Moment Like This lyrics

Lyrics

What if I told you it was all meant to be?

Would you believe me, would you agree?

Its almost that feeling that we've met before so tell me that you dont think Im crazy when I tell your love is here and now.

A Moment like this.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

Some people search forever for that one special kiss.

I cant believe its happening to me.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

Everything changes, but beauty remains.

Something so tender I cant explain.

Well I may be dreaming but til I awake..Can we make the dream last forever?

And I'll cherish all the love we share for a moment like this.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

Some people search forever for that one special kiss.

I cant believe its happening to me.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

The speed of waiting love of all.

I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall.

So let me tell you this.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this...

Some people search a lifetime for a moment like this.

Some people search forever for that one special kiss.

I cant believe its happening to me.

Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.

2.category A loves B, but B doesn't love A back

For example

Be With You - Enrique Iglesias

Lyrics

Monday night I feel so low

Count the hours they go so slow

I know the sound of your voice

Can save my soul

City lights, streets of gold

Look out my window to the world below

Moves so fast and it feels so cold

And I'm all alone

Don't let me die

I'm losing my mind

Baby just give me a sign

And now that you're gone

I just wanna be with you

And I can't go on

I wanna be with you

Wanna be with you

I can't sleep and I'm up all night

Through these tears I try to smile

I lnow the touch of your hand

Can save my life

Don't let me down

Come to me now

I got to be with you somehow

(Repeat Chorus)

And now that you're gone

Who am I without you now

I can't go on

I just wanna be with you

(Repeat Chorus)

3.category A doesn't love B, but B loves A though

For example

Simple Plan - Vacation

Lyrics

i know a girl whos obsessed with a guy

she talks for hours and still tomorrow

she'll call again and when he thinks that this could be the end,

she calls again

at six in the morning she waits at the door

he tells her to leave but still tomorrow shell be ther again

she wont let go

cant you just go somewhere on vacation?

i could book your flight

and pack your bags

if you want

a one way ticket out of my life

watching you fly away

i never liked you

she dosent care if he trys to ignore

he runs away but still she follows

shell try again

she likes to think shell get him in the end

yeah

cant you just go somewhere on vacation?

i could book your flight

and pack your bags

if you want

a one way ticket out of my life

watching you fly away

i never liked you

i never wanted you

i never liked you

i never wanted you, whoa

cant you just go somewhere on vacation?

i could book your flight

and pack your bags

if you want

a one way ticket out of my life

watching you fly away

i never liked you

i never wanted you

i never liked you

im not in love with you

Green day - Wake me up when september ends with

Lyrics

Summer has come and passed

The innocent can never last

wake me up when September ends

like my father's come to pass

seven years has gone so fast

wake me up when September ends

here comes the rain again

falling from the stars

drenched in my pain again

becoming who we are

as my memory rests

but never forgets what I lost

wake me up when September ends

summer has come and passed

the innocent can never last

wake me up when September ends

ring out the bells again

like we did when spring began

wake me up when September ends

here comes the rain again

falling from the stars

drenched in my pain again

becoming who we are

as my memory rests

but never forgets what I lost

wake me up when September ends

Summer has come and passed

The innocent can never last

wake me up when September ends

like my father's come to pass

twenty years has gone so fast

wake me up when September ends

wake me up when September ends

wake me up when September ends
