Help for the musically challenged

[zenana7]

I am appealing to my musically savvy friends here, as whatever is newer seems to be something I happen upon accidentally. I am trying to put together a collection of love-ish songs that promote, believe in, discuss, mention the idea of second chances. Of the possibility of love when the hope for it has all but gone. Corny, maybe, but if anyone can

Wow, that's a really tough prompt! I don't think any of these fit the bill, but they're nice songs anyway.

1. Jayhawks - All the Right Reasons. (Lyrics)

2. Sample lyrics "our lives have just begun." Might be a bit too bombastic for a love song mix, tho.
Muse - Falling Away With You. Lyrics

3. This is more of a traditional pop/rock love song, though, and I LOVE IT SO:
Muse - Starlight. Lyrics

4. Possibly:
Snow Patrol - Open Your Eyes. (Lyrics)

Thank you!!! These are great. Thanks so for the downloads and the lyrics.

The song that keeps running through my mind is Joan Armatrading's "Love and Affection." (I am not in love/But I'm open to persuasion...)

Do you have a time limit on this, because I think I can help you out a little bit..at the very least. But it won't happen until tonight or tomorrow, I just need the time to sit down and look through what I have.

Tonight or tomorrow would be fine -- thanks so much!
