How 'bout Joe Diffie and Mary Chapin Carpenter’s “Not Too Much to Ask”? Here’s part of the chorus:
Now I can only dream
Of being all you need.
And I can only try
To be the reason why
You think about today
And forget about the past.
It’s too much to expect,
But it’s not too much to ask.
Ooh, ooh! Garth Brooks’s cover of Bob Dylan’s “To Make You Feel My Love.” (Or Dylan’s version, I guess.) Technically, it, like “Not Too Much to Ask,” is a country song, but only nominally. Try it, you’ll like it. (Hey, Mikey!)
“I got me a fearless heart
Strong enough to get you through the scary part
It’s been broken many times before
A fearless heart just comes back for more”
Take A Chance On Me by the immortal ABBA - she’ll be like putty in your hands my friend. It is an elixir that no woman can resist, especially when you sing along and valiantly attempt to hit all of the high notes.
“So you think you’re in Love” by Robyn Hitchcock and the Egyptians
“So you think you’re in love,
Yes, you probably are.
But you want to be straight about it,
Oh, you want to be straight about it now.
<snip>
Are you sure that it’s wise?
No, you probably ain’t.
You don’t want to be faint about it,
You don’t want to be faint about it now.”
