Best. Sappy. Fucking. lovesong. ever!

[wildhorses]

Girl, I can't let you do this
Let you walk away
Girl, how can I live through this
When you're all I wake up for each day?

Baby, you're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I've got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby, what good am I?

I never had much goin'
But at least I had you
How can you walk out knowin'
I ain't got nothin' left if you do?

Baby, you're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I've got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby, what good am I, oh what good am I?


Baby, I can't make it withoutcha. And I'm, I'm tellin' ya, honey-you're my
reason for laughin', for cryin', for livin', and for dyin'.

Baby, I can't make it without you
Please, I'm begging you baby
If you go it will kill me
I swear it, Dear, my love can't bear it

You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
You're all I've got to get me by
You're my soul and my heart's inspiration
Without you baby, what good am I, what good am I?

Mm-mm-mm Mm-mm-mm
Mm-mm-mm

1. That's a great song

I don't know that it qualifies as sappy.

[wildhorses]

4. well, prolly not but, when ya ain't got no one

ya have to defend yourself somehow



I love this song and


what's wrong with sappy anyway?


I like sappy



kinda sappy my ownself and DAMN proud of it


wear sappy with PRIDE is what I say

[MissMillie]

8. Sappy has it's place in this world, for sure

And I have days when "sappy" is all I want to hear.

When I think of sappy, though, I think Barry Manilow's "Could it Be Magic?" or any love song done by Chicago.

The Righteous Brothers just don't seem "sappy" to me.

[wildhorses]

10. well, I see your point .....

there is bad sap and then there is GOOD sap...

[RetroLounge]

2. Love this song

:cry:

RL

[wildhorses]

6. me too

you oughta know by now what a sap I truly am



I fucking LOVE sap



especially well done sap


and it don't get no better than the Righteous Brothers

[RetroLounge]

7. Best of Bread

Drips sap like an old maple tree...

:hi:

RL

[wildhorses]

9. oh yeah!!! you are so right, and just for you

(the melodies may not stand the test of time but the lyrics ring true)

If a picture paints a thousand words,
Then why can’t I paint you?
The words will never show the you I’ve come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There’s no one home but you,
You’re all that’s left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.

If a man could be two places at one time,
I’d be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I’d spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away

[tigereye]

11. reminds me of junior high

that's how ancient I am! :D

[RetroLounge]

12. Yeah, but Bread was the best make out music then

if I remember correctly, being somewhat ancient myself...

RL

[tigereye]

26. it sorta fit that first crush thing at the time

:D

[chenGOD]

31. Yeah "everything I own" is pretty sappy.

I love the Ken Boothe cover of that song though...


You sheltered me from harm
Kept me warm, kept me warm
You gave my life to me
Set me free, set me free
The finest years I ever knew
Was all the years I had with you

And I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
And I would give anything I own
Just to have you back again

If there's someone you know
That won't let you go
And taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone takes them away
And you don't hear a word they say

And I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
And I would give anything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to talk to you, words again

If there's someone you know
That won't let you go
And taking it all for granted
You may lose them one day
Someone take them away
And you don't hear a word they say

And I would give anything I own
Give up my life, my heart, my home
I would give anything I own
Just to have you back again
Just to talk to you, words again
Just to hold you, once again

[maveric]

24. "SometimesWhen We Touch" by Dan Hill.

You ask me if I love you and I choke on my reply
I’d rather hurt you honestly than mislead you with a lie
And who am I to judge you on what you say or do
I’m only just beginning to see the real you
And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much and I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

Romance and all it’s strategy leaves me battling with my pride
But through the insecurity some tenderness survives
I’m just another writer, still trapped within my truths
A hesitant prize fighter still trapped within my youth

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much and I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

At times I’d like to break you and drag you to your knees
At times I’d like to break through and hold you endlessly
At times I understand you and I know how hard you’ve tried
I’ve watch while love commands you
And I’ve watched love pass you by
At times I think we’re drifters, still searching for a friend
A brother or a sister, but then the passion flares again

And sometimes when we touch
The honesty’s too much and I have to close my eyes and hide
I wanna hold you till I die
Till we both break down and cry
I want to hold you till the fear in me subsides

[wildhorses]

[Robeson]

....

[Strong Atheist]

3. Don't know this one either... nt.

[wildhorses]

5. dude, check your PM

[cleofus1]

13. if i were being sarcastic i would say angie by the stones

but instead this is one of the greatest sappy love songs of all time...i used to think it was called "betcha my darling one"...but as i know now...it is called "betcha by golly wow"

There's a spark of magic in your eyes
Candyland appears each time U smile
Never thought that fairy tales came true
But they come true when I'm near U

U're a genie in disguise
Full of wonder and surprise and...

Chorus:
Betcha by golly wow! (wow!) (wow!)
U're the one that I've been waiting 4 4ever
And ever will my love 4 U keep growing strong
Keep growing strong

If I could, I'd catch a falling star
2 shine on U so I know where U are
Paint a rainbow in your favorite shade
2 show I love U, thinking of U

Write your name across the sky
Anything U ask, I'll try cuz...

Chorus

Betcha by golly!
U're the one, yes U are! (Don't U let 'em tell U otherwise)
And ever will my love 4 U keep growing strong!

Baby, sometime
A man can't find words 2 express all the things he feels inside
But every just so often
The words of another who's truly in love seem 2 work out fine

2 say I love U (I love U)
2 say I'm thinking of U!

Chorus

U're the one I'm thinking of, thinkin' of
Ever will my...
And ever will my love 4 U keep growing strong
Keep growing strong

I love U, baby

[wildhorses]

15. freakin' hell yeah

love both of them


sap goes both ways doncha think?

[SaveElmer]

14. No contest...Dan Fogelberg...

Longer!!!

Longer than there've been fishes in the ocean
Higher than any bird ever flew
Longer than there've been stars up in the heavens
I've been in love with you
Stronger than any mountain cathedral
Truer than any tree ever grew
Deeper than any forest primeval
I am in love with you
I'll bring fire in the winters
You'll send showers in the springs
We'll fly through the falls and summers
With love on our wings
Through the years as the fire starts to mellow
Burning lines in the book of our lives
Though the binding cracks and the pages start to yellow
I'll be in love with you
I'll be in love with you
(Repeat First Verse)
I am in love with you

[wildhorses]

16. 'nother good one....and for some reason reminded me of this

If I could save time in a bottle
The first thing that I’d like to do
Is to save every day
Till eternity passes away
Just to spend them with you

If I could make days last forever
If words could make wishes come true
I’d save every day like a treasure and then,
Again, I would spend them with you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I’ve looked around enough to know
That you’re the one I want to go
Through time with

If I had a box just for wishes
And dreams that had never come true
The box would be empty
Except for the memory
Of how they were answered by you

But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I’ve looked around enough to know
That you’re the one I want to go
Through time with

[livetohike]

17. That's one of my favorites!

:hi:

[wildhorses]

19. glad you like it

:hi: you may also appreciate my other threads this morning....



check out threads titled:

Rave on

and


good feelin' to know


good songs both....but NOT sappy. well, on edit: maybe.. good feelin' could be considered sap?!?!

[xmas74]

32. I must confess that I love that song.

[LSK]

18. Jewel - you were meant for me

Not exactly a love song, more of a lost love song I guess. But rates really high on the sappy tear jerker meter. Very dangerous after a breakup.

[cleofus1]

20. i used to moon over this one once upon a time

"Precious And Few"

(As recorded by Climax)
WALTER D. NIMS

Precious and few are the moments we two can share
Quiet and blue like the sky I'm hung over you
And if I can't find my way back home (can't find my way)
It just wouldn't be fair (wouldn't be fair)
Precious and few are the moments we two can share.

Baby it's you on my mind, your love is so rare
Being with you is a feeling I just can't compare
And if I can't hold you in my arms (can't hold you oo)
It just wouldn't be fair (wouldn't be fair)
'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share.

And if I can't find my way back home (can't find my way)
Ah, it just wouldn't be fair (wouldn't be fair)
'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share
(Precious and few are the moments we two can share.)

Precious and few are the moments we two can share-arr
Quiet and blue like the sky I'm hung over you-oo
And if I can't find my way back home (la la la oo)
Ah, it just wouldn't be fair (wouldn't be fair)
'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share.

(Precious and few are the moments we two can share.)

[wildhorses]

22. had that on 45

good Lord...remember 45's? sheeesh

[GalleryGod]

23. Hey! My man Sonny Geraci ! Only man to front TWO

"One Hit Wonder" Bands!:wow:

#1. The Outsiders= "Time Won't let Me"

#2 Climax "Precious and Few"


He tried to pick up my date outside a cattle-pen of a nite club in Philly...that was in Winter, 1973:wtf:

[warrens]

21. I dunno, I think "You Got a Nice Body but Your Record Collection Sucks"

Has more of that pure honesty chix dig so much. Them guys in Sloppy Seconds sure know their way around the female heart.

[wildhorses]

25. hmmmm....

I think I'm gonna go home, 'cause you just ran out of beer
And there's nothing you can say that'll make me wanna stay around here
You're lying there half naked
But these tunes you're playing just won't make it
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

You got every Tom Cruise film soundtrack ever made
They might get you off, but they ain't gonna get you laid
Modern country and gangsta rap
And what's with all this New Age crap?
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

I'm afraid that I'll never learn to live
With what you call "alternative"
Unplugged albums and charity projects
And bands named for inanimate objects

But I gotta go now 'cause you just put on "The Wall"
Don't try to phone 'cause I won't return the call
I could never fall in love
With a member of a record club
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

I'm afraid that I'll never learn to live
With what you call "alternative"
All your unplugged albums and charity projects
And bands named for inanimate objects

"All the great love songs that only two can share
On one CD for the first time anywhere"
You can save 'em for another guy
"Operators are standing by"
You got a great body, but your record collection sucks

[WeRQ4U]

27. I prefer Anthrax's "Nice Fuckin' Ballad"

We fell in love at first sight,
I can't explain the feelings
When I first saw you...

We were so so happy
A lifetime of love sweet honey child,
you'll always be mine...

But then I played the fool
I never ment to hurt you
Or sleep with all your friends....

In reconsile we found ourselfs,
Our love was meant to be,
Oh baby can't you see....Yeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh

(guitar solo)

You left me standing in the mud
Crying to myself,
A heart so full of pain.

But we fell in love again,
This time forever,
True love prevails overall...

She got hit by a truck...

[cwydro]

30. nice sappy thread

to wake up to...think I'll have pancakes for breakfast, to go with all this sap :P

[wildhorses]

34. hey you

:hi:



how are things?



:hug:

[ScreamingMeemie]

33. If a picture paints a thousand words, then why can't I paint you...

The words will never show the you I've come to know.
If a face could launch a thousand ships,
Then where am I to go?
There's no one home but you,
You're all that's left me too.
And when my love for life is running dry,
You come and pour yourself on me.

If a man could be two places at one time,
I'd be with you.
Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way.
If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die,
I'd spend the end with you.
And when the world was through,
Then one by one the stars would all go out,
Then you and I would simply fly away


I love Bread.
