A love song mix CD without The Saddest Landscape - "The Sixth Golden Ticket" is blasphemy.

we mouthed the words to all of the saddest songs because they felt like home and i watched you out of the corner of my eye and that smile you gave me launched one thousand beats of my heart. so you can lean a little harder i will take that weight from you, i will be that call in the middle of the night the picture kept in your favorite book and it you just want someone to call yours i will be that tool i was just looking for someone to leave me breathless and i found it in you.... . and i dont want to miss you anymore so here is one song to call your own to kiss away the tears and leave no traces of pain so angelic and comforting these are my dreams all comming true and i must have played that message one thousand times just to hear your voice before i went to sleep

"Maps" by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs
Wait they don't love you like i love you wait they don't love you like i love you maps wait they don't love you like i love you....

or

"I'll Cover You" from RENT
I think they ment it when they said you can't buy love now i know you can rent it a new lease you are my love. On life. Be my life.

or

"You're Love is a Drug" by Puffy AmiYumi (for the light hearted yet sincere break in all the seriousness)
Knock me off my feet, make my world so obsolete, its so groovy just like a movie, its so amazing how you can make a sober girl so high, i can't get enough your love is a drug.

in the arms of sleep - smashing pumpkins
sleep will not come to this tired body now
peace will not come to this lonely heart
there are some things i'll live without
but i want you to know that i need you right now
i need you tonite
i steal a kiss from her sleeping shadow moves
cause i'll always miss her wherever she goes
and i'll always need her more than she could ever need me
i need someone to ease my mind
but sometimes a someone is so hard to find
and i'll do anything to keep her here tonite
and i'll say anything to make her feel alright
and i'll be anything to keep her here tonite
cause i want you to stay, with me
i need you tonite
she comes to me like an angel out of time
as i play the part of a saint on my knees
there are some things i'll live without
but i want you to know that i need you right now
suffer my desire
suffer my desire


just enough - the early november
I know, that time moves faster when you're sleeping.
And I know, it's not too good for me.
Because when I wake up, I'm all alone.
It's just enough for me to fall in love with you.
And I wake up, time and time again,
With nothing here for proof.
If I have to wake up one more time,
Without you and these ugly red eyes.
I hate the bright blue sky, to greet me in the morning,
Rather than your arms.
It's just enough for me to fall in love with you.
And I wake up, time and time again,
With nothing here for proof.
I need you to be with me,
Dreams can only help me for so long.
And I will wait my life. I promise to do it right,
For just this moment to be alone with you.
I see us standing there,
Holding something in our hands.
I see an open door,
I see us walking in.
We're walking up the stairs,
We're walking up the stairs,
We're walking up the stairs,
We're walking up the stairs,
Into our room.
Waking up can be so hard

Well this is just me, but if anybody put "You're the Inspiration" by Chicago on there...

I'd melt into a puddle of goo

All you really needed was "The Light". :p


If you can, you should find the mash by Dert of "The Light" with José Gonzalés' "Heartbeats" guitar picking. It's a real mash, not like the Grey Album or anything, it's a remix using famous songs is all, an old-school mash-up that works ridiculously well.

Also, Sondre Lerche - "Night and Day"

Prince Quick Mix - You Are Sleeping (Luke Chable Vocal Pass)

Nothing more romantic than that.

Put the acoustic version of that Incubus song on, it's much better.

Umm, anything from Stars :heart:
