I love english music. just abt some time back I wrote about top twenty hindi love songs. and man was it difficult. while writing it I realised I knew very few hindi songs. coming back to english songs . I am an eng songs buff so this is my list of ten best english love songs.
- FEELS LIKE HOME by CHANTEL KREVIAZUK
This is on the soundtrack of’How to lose a guy in 10 days’ . a very beautiful song. this is probably one of the most popular wedding first dance songs. amazing https://lyrics. chantel has distinct vocals. also her rendition of’leaving on a jet plane’ originally crooned by john denver was also a popular hit.
Somethin’ in your eyes,
makes me wanna lose myself
Makes me wanna lose myself, in your arms
There’s somethin’ in your voice,
makes my heart beat fast
Hope this feeling lasts, the rest of my life
If you knew how lonely my life has been
And how long I’ve been so alone
And if you knew how I wanted someone to come along
And change my life the way you’ve done
2.I DON’T WANNA MISS A THING by AEROSMITH
Everyone has heard this song. And most people love it at the first listen. great song by a great band.a classic
I could stay awake just to hear you breathin’
Watch you smile while you are sleepin’
While you’re far away and dreamin’
I could spend my life in this sweet surrender
I could stay lost in this moment-forever
Every moment spent with you is a moment I treasure
Don’t wanna close my eyes
I don’t wanna fall asleep
‘Cause I’d miss you baby
And I don’t wanna miss a thing
‘Cause even when I dream of you
The sweetest dream would never do I’d still miss you baby
And I don’t wanna miss a thing
3.A MOMENT LIKE THIS by KELLY CLARKSON
Well this was the song Kelly sung when she won the American Idol season 1. this song has the most simple and deep https://lyrics. when u hear this song it just makes your heart sing.
What if I told you
It was all meant to be
Would you believe me,
Would you agree
It’s almost that feelin’
That we’ve met before
So tell me that you don’t think I’m crazy
When I tell you love has come 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
Oh, I can’t believe it’s happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime,
For a moment like this
4.BECAUSE YOU LOVED ME by CELINE DION
Don’t mean to sound cliche’ . but this is probably the best love song written. I agree this is also probably the most over-played and aired love song. but the lyrics just get to you. definitely a good first dance song. and a great dedication song.
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I’ll be forever thankful baby
You’re the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You’re the one who saw me through through it all
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldnt speak
You were my eyes when I couldnt see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldnt reach
You gave faith coz you believed I’m everything I am
Because you loved me
5.WHEN YOU SAY NOTHING AT ALL by RONAN KEATING
Well this was on the soundtrack of Notting Hill. very popular movie. Julia Roberts Hugh Grant. Romance in the air.
It’s amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may I could never explain
What I hear when you don’t say a thing
The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There’s a truth in your eyes saying you’ll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you’ll catch me whenever I fall
You say it best.when you say nothing at all
All day long I can hear people talking out loud
But when you hold me near, you drown out the crowd
Try as they may they can never define
What’s been said between your heart and mine
6.I TURN TO YOU by CHRISTINA AGUILERA
This is not originally sung by her . but definitely a great cover.exquisite https://lyrics.
When I’m lost in the rain,
In your eyes I know I’ll find the light to light my way
And when I’m scared, losing ground
When my world is going crazy
You can turn it all around
and when I’m down you’re there
Pushing me to the top
You’re always there, giving me all you’ve got
For a shield from the storm
For a friend
For a love to keep me safe and warm
I turn to you
For the strength to be strong
For the will to carry on
For everything you do
For everything that’s true
I turn to you
7.I CROSS MY HEART by GEORGE STRAIT
Again a very popular wedding song.this is what i’d choose for my wedding. true and pure love
Our love is unconditional
We knew it from the start I can see it in your eyes
You can feel it from my heart from here on after
Let’s stay the way we are right now
And share all the love and laughter
That a lifetime will allow
I cross my heart And promise to Give all I’ve got to give
To make all your dreams come true
In all the world You’ll never find
A love as true as mine
8.AT THE BEGINNING by RICHARD MARX & DONNA LEWIS
Not a very popular song. great https://lyrics. great beats and soundtrack of an animated movie. don’t you think animated flicks have some of the best songs.
We were strangers
Starting out on a journey
Never dreaming what we’d have to go through
Now here we are
And I’m suddenly standing
At the beginning with you
No one told me I was going to find you
Unexpected, what you did to my heart
When I lost hope
You were there to remind me
This is the start
Life is a road, and I want to keep going
Love is a river I want to keep flowing
Life is a road, now and forever
Wonderful journey
I’ll be there when the world stops turning
I’ll be there when the storm is through
At the end I want to be standing
at the beginning With you
9.FROM THE HEART by ANOTHER LEVEL
Again a lesser known song . generally played in all HBO’s valentine day special ads
I know you’ve heard these words a hundred other times before
And you’ve been hurt and so your heart has chose to close the door
love broke your heart and brought you lies
look in my eyes you’ll see a love that’s deep and true
tender and strong and all for you you can trust this love
honest, that’s the honest truth.
from the heart i’m giving you everything, everything
from the heart I promise you that i’ll be there
i’ll be there to love you
from the soul i’m showing you all I feel, all I feel is from the heart, from the heart.
10.COME WHAT MAY by NICOLE KIDMAN & EWAN MCGREGOR
Great song . voiced by probably the most popular actress right now and a fairly popular actor. from their movie Moulin Rouge. very few liked the movie.very zanny and over the top picturisation. though the movie had a soul.it was definitely not a hollywood buff’s fav.
Never knew I could feel like this
Like I’ve never seen the sky before
Want to vanish inside your kiss
Everyday I love you more and more
Listen to my heart, can you hear it sing
Telling me to give you everything
Seasons may change, winter to spring
But I love you, until the end of time
Come what may
Come what may I will love you until my dying day
