What song exemplifies true love to you?

True Love Travels On A Gravel Road - Elvis Presley


How many girls choose cotton dress worlds
When they could have satins and lace
And stand by her man, never once letting shade touch her face
How many hearts could live through all the winters
We've known and still not be cold
True love travels on a gravel road.

Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger
On smooth streets paved with gold
For true love travels on a gravel road.

Down through the years we've had hard times and tears
But they only helped our love grow
And we'll stay together no matter how strong the wind blows
Not once have I seen your blue eyes filled with envy
Or stray from the one that you hold
Oh true love travels on a gravel road.

Love is a stranger and hearts are in danger
on smooth streets paved with gold
For true love travels on a gravel road.

Yeah, true love travels on a gravel road. Mmmm
True love travels on a gravel road.
True love travels on a gravel road.
 
EXTREME - MORE THAN WORDS (The caps make it more true!)
Saying I love you
Is not the words I want to hear from you
Its not that I want you
Not to say, but if you only knew
How easy it would be to show me how you feel
More than words is all you have to do to make it real
Then you wouldnt have to say that you love me
Cos Id already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldnt make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words

Now Ive tried to talk to you and make you understand
All you have to do is close your eyes
And just reach out your hands and touch me
Hold me close dont ever let me go
More than words is all I ever needed you to show
Then you wouldnt have to say that you love me
Cos Id already know

What would you do if my heart was torn in two
More than words to show you feel
That your love for me is real
What would you say if I took those words away
Then you couldnt make things new
Just by saying I love you

More than words

our 'us' song would be 'fistful of love' by 'anthony and the johnsons'
it exemplifies true love because of the memories it holds and they way that hearing it makes me feel, even when i'm alone
it makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up and my heart beat that little bit quicker

but for lyrics - 3 doors down - so i need you

Would you say that you don’t care,
And then leave me standing here
Like the fool who is drowning in dispair
And screamin’
Oh no I can’t let you go,
My little girl
Because you’re holding up my world,
So I need you...
 
Don't Falter by Mint Royale and Lauren Laverne will always remind me of one person in particular.
It's an upbeat song, so summery it's practically an icecream van jingle. Never fails to make me smile. :)

Similarly Place So Near by Rootjoose. It's an accoustic one that's kind of bittersweet.

Take me to a place
Not far from here
A place that helped to make
It all so clear
I know it's where I'll go
When days run into years
So take me to a place
So near

I know exactly the place, and the people that will be there. If you understand the term 'boatdrinks' that's the closest I can get to explaining it.
 
Surely it has to be "True Love", as sung by Bing "it went straight down the middle" Crosby and Grace "doing not a lot of singing on this track" Kelly?

Truly Madly Deeply maybe?

I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I love you more with every breath
Truly madly deeply do..
I will be strong I will be faithful
'Cos I'm counting on a new beginning.
A reason for living.
A deeper meaning.

I want to stand with you on a mountain.
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever.
Until the sky falls down on me...

And when the stars are shining brightly
In the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish
Send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry..
The tears of joy
For all the pleasure and the certainty.
That we're surrounded
By the comfort and protection of..
The highest power.
In lonely hours.
The tears devour you..
I want to stand with you on a mountain,
I want to bathe with you in the sea.
I want to lay like this forever,
Until the sky falls down on me...

Oh can't you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cos it's standing right before you.
All that you need will surely come...

I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy.
I'll be your hope
I'll be your love
Be everything that you need.
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly madly deeply do...
