The Sights - Not One To Beg (this might not be what you're looking for, but it's a start)

Uhhh, shit, ummm, give me like 10 minutes and I'll cycle through my cd collection and present some good ones, hopefully.

I personally think Elton John's Your Song is the best love song ever, but that's an oldie.

Muse - Unintended
Matthew Good - Song For The Girl
Hot Rod Circuit - Let's Go Home
Alkaline Trio - Every Thug Needs A Lady
The Ataris - San Dimas High School Football Rules
Pretty Girls Make Graves - The Getaway
Pearl Jam - Love Boat Captain
Maroon 5 - Sunday Morning
Feeder - Yesterday Went Too Soon

Kevin Devine- Splitting Up Christmas.

I love this song :love:

So what if I'm freezing, I'm awake and I'm happy
The sun's steepling its shards on my floor
I drag my feet to the shower and I hear someone singing
I keep the lights off as the water gets warm
Now I knot up tie and toss my books in a schoolbag
They keep my priorities straight
So I can sleepwalk through work like an outpatient program
I don't buy but I'll get through anyway
And at some point I'll call you and tell you I miss you
And you are the point of my day
And my face will get flushed and my throat will choke up
When you tell me you feel the same
So I have been thinking of splitting up Christmas
To see everyone I'd like to see
And your first on that list
Your the lotto I hit
You're the star at the top of my tree
And I have been feeling this good for a reason
My friends and my family
You are all the backbone
You keep me balenced and settled
And I"m in debt to you all endlessy
So tonight I will call you and try to say
"Thank you for being the sun on my face
I know the world's almost over but you make it seem better
And I hope for you I do the same

:love:
HARDCORE!!!

OMG. I can't believe I din't think fo you
until now because when I think on
a scale of one to ten you're like YWELVE.
No, seriously?

I <3 my HLP!!!!!

Blink 182 - Fuck a dog.

Goodbye you liar,
Well you sipped from the cup but you don't own up to anything
Then you think you will inspire
Take apart your head
(and I wish I could inspire)
Take apart your demons, then you add it to the list.

Man, my sister made a love-song cd on valentines day but now I can barely remember anything that was on it. :uh:

All I can think of is
Alanis Morisette - Head over Feet
Aerosmith - Don't Wanna Miss a Thing

these aren't exactly the genre you specified... or, not at all. but here:

christina aguilera- loving me 4 me
michelle branch- it's you
you have to, you just have to trust me
whoever i was then i can't ever be again
the faith you've found i've never felt
the terror held in wedding bells
the comfort in "there's no one else"
the truth be told, i'm never going to know

Pearl Jam - Love Boat Captain

Uh, Love Boat Captain isn't a love song, its about fans that died at a PJ show once.
