Looking for songs about a new relationship

Recommended Posts

Looking for songs about being in a new relationship, and liking someone very much, and maybe being in love with them but not sure just yet. the Beatles: something is the only one that comes to mind, and I was just wondering what some of you thought.

"Something" is not at all what you mean: it's a love song... without a doubt...

I thought there'd be a whole lot more songs out there about this subject, but haven't been able to find many at all...

I don't know what your musical tastes are, glock, but here's what I did find:

Outside the Rain

Stevie Nicks

Outside the rain

And the heart skips a beat

So you're lonely

Creature of the night

It's been almost a week

Can you love me only

Look at me, for a very long time

Long enough to know

Love is a word - I've been trying to find

Words don't matter

They don't matter at all

Maybe it's only a dream

I don't want to feel that

Well it's one more link - in the chain

I don't believe that

So you're still lonely

You say that it's been forever

Maybe you never knew me -

Maybe you thought that

I'd never change - but

You know I'm changing

- You're wrong -

And it's been like dying -

No love's that hard to find -

And I'm tired of -

I'm tired of trying

Outside the rain

And the heart skips a beat

So you're lonely

Look in my eyes

Touch my face

Baby, there's no one

That can take my place

Look in my eyes, touch my face

Baby there's no one that

Can ever replace that - heartache

Take away that heartache

Love is a word that some entertain

If you find it

You have won the game

Somebody said

"Outside the rain..."

What if I Said

by Anita Cochran/Steve Wariner

We've been friends for a long long time

You tell me your secrets and I'll tell you mine

She's left you all alone

And you feel like no one cares

But I have never failed you

I've always been there

You tell your story

It sounds a bit like mine

It's the same old situation

It happens every time

Can't we see it oh maybe you and me

Is what's meant to be

Do we disagree

What if I told you what if I said that I love you

How would you feel what would you think

What would we do

Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine

Or would I lose a friend or find a love that would never end

What if I said

She doesn't love you oh it's' plain to see

I can read between the lines of what you're telling me

He doesn't hold you the way a woman should be held

How long can I go on keeping these feelings to myself

What if I told you what if I said that I love you

How would you feel what would you think

What would we do

Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine

Or would I lose a friend or find a love that would never end

What if I said

Oh we've both had our share of loneliness

So whose to say that we can't have a little happiness

And if I found that in you

It would make my dreams come true

Or would you walk away

Hear what I have to say

What if I told you what if I said that I love you

How would you feel what would you think

What would we do

Do we dare to cross that line between your heart and mine

I've always wondered from the day we met

What if I said

What if I said

What if I said

Amanda

by Boston

Babe, tomorrow's so far away

There's something I just have to say

I don't think I can hide what I'm feelin' inside

Another day, knowin' I love you

And I, I'm getting too close again

I don't want to see it end

If I tell you tonight will you turn out the light

And walk away knowin' I love you?

I'm gonna take you by surprise

And make you realize, Amanda

I'm gonna tell you right away,

I can't wait another day, Amanda

I'm gonna say it like a man

And make you understand, Amanda

I love you

And I feel like today's the day

Lookin' for the words to say

Do you wanna be free, are you ready for me

To feel this way

I don't wanna lose you

So, it may be too soon, I know

The feeling takes so long to grow

If I tell you today will you turn me away

And let me go?

I don't wanna lose you

I'm gonna take you by surprise

And make you realize, Amanda

I'm gonna tell you right away,

I can't wait another day, Amanda

I'm gonna say it like a man

And make you understand, Amanda

Oh girl

You and I

I know that we can't wait

And I swear, I swear it's not a lie girl

Tomorrow may be too late

You, you and I girl

We can share a life together

It's now or never

And tomorrow may be too late

And, feelin' the way I do

I don't wanna wait my whole life through

To say I'm in love with you

Hello

(Lionel Richie)David Cook

I've been alone with you inside my mind

And in my dreams I've kissed your lips a thousand times

I sometimes see you pass outside my door

Hello, is it me you're looking for?

I can see it in your eyes

I can see it in your smile

You're all I've ever wanted, (and) my arms are open wide

'Cause you know just what to say

And you know just what to do

And I want to tell you so much, I love you ...

I long to see the sunlight in your hair

And tell you time and time again how much I care

Sometimes I feel my heart will overflow

Hello, I've just got to let you know

'Cause I wonder where you are

And I wonder what you do

Are you somewhere feeling lonely, or is someone loving you?

Tell me how to win your heart

For I haven't got a clue

But let me start by saying, I love you ...

Hello, is it me you're looking for?

'Cause I wonder where you are

And I wonder what you do

Are you somewhere feeling lonely or is someone loving you?

Tell me how to win your heart

For I haven't got a clue

But let me start by saying ... I love you

Jenny

By the Click Five

(as told to SF in our interview with Ben Romans, "So it's just more a song about not being able to make a decision. It's more a song about that kind of moment that hangs in the middle of the air; is it gonna happen or is it not gonna happen?"

She calls me baby

then she won't call me

says she adores me

and then ignores me

(Jenny, what's the problem?)

She keeps her distance

and sits on fences

puts up resistance

and builds defenses

(Jenny, what's the problem?)

You leave me hanging on the line

everytime you change your mind

[Chorus:]

First you say you won't

then you say you will

you keep me hanging on

and we're not moving on

or standing still

Jenny, you've got me on my knees

Jenny, it's killing me

She needs her own space

she's playing mind games

ends up at my place

saying that she's changed

(Jenny, what's the problem?)

I'm trying to read between the lines

you got me going out of my mind

[Chorus]

(oh oh oh)

It's killing me

(oh oh oh)

It's killing me

(oh oh oh)

Jenny

[Chorus x2]

It's killing me

Jenny

Nobody Move, Nobody Get Hurt

by We Are Scientists

(In our interview with Keith Murray about this song, he said this, ""It was very clear that something should have happened about three months prior, and just kept lingering because I would never possibly make a move on anything. And just getting the merits of being totally passive and indecisive because as long as there was no actual action taken, it was still very safe, and there was no threat that it could blow up in my face. Which, in fact, it did, because of that indecision and inaction.")

The day, you move, I'm probably gonna explode

It's true, I'm probably gonna explo-oh-oh-oh-oooh

Woah-oh-oh-oh-ooh

You'll pray, for proof, I'm probably makin' this up

It's true, I'm probably makin' this u-uh-uh-uh-ooh

Woah-oh-oh-oh-ooh

Because...

My body is your body

I won't tell anybody

If you wanna use my body

Go for it, yeah

My body is your body

I won't tell anybody

If you wanna use my body

Go for it, yeah

Go for it, yeah

If no-one moves, then nobody's gonna get hurt

Don't move, 'cause nobody wants to get hu-uh-uh-uh-ooh

Woah-oh-oh-oh-ooh

We'll pray, for proof, I'm probably makin' this up

It's true, I'm probably makin' this u-uh-uh-uh-ooh

Woah-oh-oh-oh-ooh

Because...

My body is your body

I won't tell anybody

If you wanna use my body

Go for it, yeah

My body is your body

I won't tell anybody

If you wanna use my body

Go for it, yeah

Go for it, yeah

Because...

My body is your body

I won't tell anybody

If you wanna use my body

Go for it, yeah

My body is your body

I'm not just anybody

If you wanna use my body

Go for it, yeah

Go for it, yeah

I'm sure a lot of songs fit the bill, but since you mentioned the Beatles, I'll start with this one:

If I Fell

If I fell in love with you

Would you promise to be true

And help me understand

'cause I've been in love before

And I found that love was more

Than just holding hands

If I give my heart to you

I must be sure

From the very start

That you would love me more than her

If I trust in you, oh please

Don't run and hide

If I love you too, oh please

Don't hurt my pride like her

'cause I couldn't stand the pain

And I would be sad if our new love was in vain

So I hope you see that I

Would love to love you

And that she will cry

When she learns we are two

cause I couldn't stand the pain

and I would be sad if our new love was in vain

so I hope you see that I

would love to love you

and that she will cry when she learns we are two.

If I fell in love with you

If I Fell

...which makes me remember

If I Fall

Dixie Chicks

Was it the pull of the moon now baby

That led you to my door

You say the night's got you acting crazy

I think it's something more

I never felt the Earth move honey

Until you shook my tree

Nobody runs from the law now baby

Of love and gravity It pulls you so strong

Baby you gotta hold on

If I fall you're going down with me

You're going down with me baby if I fall

You can't take back every little chill you give me

You're going down with me baby heart and all

Ooh..yeah

We're hanging right on the edge now baby

The wind is getting stronger

We're hanging on by a thread now honey

We can't hold on much longer

It's a long way down but it's too late

If I fall you're going down with me

You're going down with me baby if I fall

You can't take back every little chill you give me

You're going down with me baby heart and all

Ooh baby I couldn't get any higher

This time I'm willing to dance on the wire

If I fall...If I fall

'Cause if I fall you're going down with me

You're going down with me baby if I fall

You can't take back every little chill you gave me

You're going down with me baby heart and all

If I fall...If I fall...Ooh yeah

How about The Beatles:

I've Just Seen A Face

I've just seen a face,

I can't forget the time or place

That we'd just met, she's just the girl for me

And I want all the world to see we've met

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm mmm mmm

Had it been another day

I might have looked the other way

But I had never been aware

And as it is I dream of her tonight

La, di, di, da di di

Falling, yes I am falling

And she keeps calling me back again

I have never known

The likes of this, I've been alone

And I have missed things and kept out of sight

But other girls were never quite like this

Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm mmm mmm

Falling, yes I am falling

And she keeps calling me back again

I've just seen a face

I can t forget the time or place

And we'd just met, she's just the girl for me

And I want all the world to see we've met

Mmm, mmm, mmm, la di di

Falling, yes I am falling

And she keeps calling me back again

I Found That Girl

The Jackson Five

(words & music by The Corporation)

Mama, Oh Mama, I found that girl;

Mama oh Mama I found that girl.

Mama, life for me now is a new sensation

just like you said it would be, with the right situation.

Now love has meaning and I have a goal;

this feeling inside now makes yester-me a hundred years old,

now I understand what it is to be a man.

The way you explained it to me that day,

you said only the right girl could make me feel this way, well,

Mama I think I found that girl,

yeah, mama, I think I found that girl.

Mama, she that beautiful dream that I dream each night,

she's that bird of love on whose wings I'm in flight.

She's those words left when there's no more to say,

she's my sunshine at the end of a perfect day.

All this lets find a reason to be alive.

That day when you set me upon your knee

you said the only the right girl could be all these things,

Mama, I think I found that girl;

well mama, I think I found that girl.

She said, "Son, go on and search around,

there's a good girls whose out there to be found;" and

Mama I think I found that girl;

well, mama I think I found that girl.

Mama, Oh Mama, I found that girl;

Mama oh Mama I found that girl.

(repeat and fade with lead vocal ad lib)

We've Only Just Begun

Carpenters

We've only just begun to live,

White lace and promises

A kiss for luck and we're on our way.

We've just begun.

Before the rising sun we fly,

So many roads to choose

We start our walking and learn to run.

And yes, We've just begun.

Sharing horizons that are new to us,

Watching the signs along the way,

Talking it over just the two of us,

Working together day to day

Together.

And when the evening comes we smile,

So much of life ahead

We'll find a place where there's room to grow,

And yes, We've just begun.
