Let love fill the air and fall head-over-heels for these 10 songs that are SURE to make your significant other fall in love with you all over again. 
10) “Please come to Boston” by David Allen Coe
“I’m the number 1 fan of the man from Tennessee”
Kicking off this list is a country song that may be the most romantic song ever created, all about what home really means: not a place, but with a person. One all about the “no matter where you go, home is always with me” aspect of love. Coe reminds us all that be it a mansion or a trailer, as long is its with your significant other, it’s home.

7) “Little Spoon” by Andrew Blodgett
“I love you to the moon”
Written by one of UTD ’s own, Blodgett conveys the simplistic idea of love. With this song, it’s hard to hear and not think of your significant other with a smile on your face.

6) “Rollercoaster” by Bleachers
“Those endless nights that we traveled we stole”
This speaks to the fact that love doesn’t have a linear path. It has ups and downs and sometimes isn’t easy to do, but you keep going because…… well you love them. This is about someone that takes you to the edge; that thrill of love someone that whenever your with you feel that rush only a rollercoaster can give you. They may not be the best for you, but there no doubt that whenever you’re with them there’s never a dull moment.
5) “Ooh” by Jon Bellion

4) “Valentine” by Atlas
“You’re the ice that’s glistening inside my cup of tea, which is also you… interesting”
This song truly speaks for itself; a short song that expresses the reason your significant other is your significant other. From start to finish, this lo-fi rap song is all business, and Atlas does not beat around the bush about how much this romantic intimacy means to him. This is simply a song that just has a very ‘Atlas’ way of saying “I love you”.
3) “24/7/365” by Surfaces
“You’re Mr. Wrong, I’m Mrs. Right”
All about that mystery couple, the person that seems to be at every party and you don’t know how or why they are with you but you’re lucky they are. Describing the night these two met, Surfaces leads the listener down a lyrical path of a night of love.
2) “Stay” by The Hails
“I like it when you go, but I love it when you stay”
This song is for all those couples that are making the distance work, be it only a 40 minute drive or a 4 hour one.

The Hails show you a song all about bettering yourself and not letting your situation get in the way of being with your significant other.
