Love Songs that are actually about pointless LUST.

[Minya Collowen]

We've all heard them, those 'beautiful love songs' that are actually just songs about lust if you listen to the lyrics. This thread is a place to post and rant about those songs! The example i'm starting this off with is James Blunt's "You're Beautiful". It's about a guy who all of a sudden falls in love with this woman because she's beautiful...even though he just saw her at a subway:


My life is brilliant.

My life is brilliant
My love is pure.
I saw an angel.
Of that I'm sure.
She smiled at me on the subway.
She was with another man.
But I won't lose no sleep on that,
'Cause I've got a plan.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

Yes, she caught my eye,
As we walked on by.
She could see from my face that I was,
ducking high,
And I don't think that I'll see her again,
But we shared a moment that will last 'till the end.

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
I saw your face in a crowded place,
And I don't know what to do,
'Cause I'll never be with you.

La la la la la la la la la

You're beautiful. You're beautiful.
You're beautiful, it's true.
There must be an angel with a smile on her face,
When she thought up that I should be with you.
But it's time to face the truth,
I will never be with you.

there' s new song on the VH1 top 20 countdown... although i dont think its that new. Its called "Mercy" by Duffy and its very discreet but there is really no point to the song but it seems that everyone loves it lol. but after listening to the lyrics i found that all the song is about lust haha its very wierd

I have another, haha but this is from the 90s. It couldn't possibly be more blunt!:

98 Degrees-

If you're tellin' me you want me
Hold me close all through the night
I know, deep inside you need me
No one else can make it right

Don't you try to hide the secrets
I can see it if your eyes
You said the words without speaking
And i'm gonna make you mine

Chorus:
Give me just one night, una noche
A moment to be by your side
Give me just one night, una noche
I'll give you the time of your life

The time of your life
Ohhhh
Give you the time of your life
Oh baby yeah

Love and passion make me crazy
Your existence makes me wild
Wanna loosen up your feelings
To see what's hiding inside

Chorus

The time of your life
Ohhhh oh yeah
Oh baby

Ay, que rico
Oh, how good
Me pone loca
You make me crazy
Como te mueve
How you move
Como me toca
How you touch me
Tu movimiento
Your movement
Tu sentimiento
Your feeling
Si, yo te quiero
Yes, I love you
Te doy la noche
I'll give you the night
Toda la noche
All night long
Ay, vamos!
Let's go!

Give me just one night, just one night baby
A moment to be by your side
Give me just one night, just one night oh baby
I'll give you the time of your life
(give you the time of your life)
Give me just one night

Give me just one night, una noche
A moment to be by your side
(a moment to be by your side)
Give me just one night, una noche oh yeah
I'll give you the time of your life

Give me just one night, una noche
A moment to be by your side
(a moment to be by your side)
Give me just one night, una noche
I'll give you the time of your life
(give you the time of your life)
The time of your life
Oh yeah
