Default Could use some help here..

I'm needing some help here. My girlfriend's birthday is approaching soon, and I am in the process of compiling a love songs CD.

Can somebody make some recommendations for me? New school, old school, anything is fine. Just looking more for the deeper message in the song than any particular genre.

Here's what I have so far:
1. Brian McKnight - The Only One for Me
2. Drop N Harmony - Because I Love You
3. Edwin McCain - I'll Be
4. Nu Flavor - Most Beautiful
5. D-Cru - I'll Be Waiting
6. Jaci Velasquez - Imagine Me without You
7. Boyz II Men - Visions of a Sunset
8. Michael W. Smith - Love of a Lifetime
9. Daniel Bedingfield - If You're Not the One
10. Voices of Theory - Say It
11. PM Dawn - I'd Die Without You
12. 98 Degrees - I Do (Cherish You)
13. Eric Clapton - Wonderful Tonight
14. Jinusean - How Deep is Your Love
15. Al Green - Let's Stay Together
16. Craig David - We were Meant to Be
17. Fabolous - I'm So into You
18. Extreme - More than Words
19. Jason Wade - You Belong to Me
20. Uncle Sam - When I See You Smile

I am perfectly aware how sappy this is, so please no comments on that [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
Can anyone help me out here with some additions? I'd like to be able to get enough songs to make 2 CDs.

*EDIT: I'll add tracks as to which songs I've added. Thanks in advance everyone.*

Anything by Savage Garden, but if you want the sap-fest sure-thing, go with "I Knew I Loved You."
Anything by Coldplay, maybe "The Scientist," "Yellow," "Shiver"
Anything by Brian McKnight, maybe "6, 8, 12" or "Back at One"
If you must go with 98 Degrees, "Because of You"
"Angel" Robbie Williams
"Breathing" Lifehouse

Okay

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can’t help
Falling in love with you

Wise men say
Only fools rush in
But I can’t help
Falling in love with you

Shall I stay
Would it be a sin
If I can’t help
Falling in love with you

As a river flows
Gently to the sea
Darling so it goes
Some things were meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life too
Cause I can’t help
Falling in love with you

As a river flows
Gently to the sea
Darling so we go
Some things were meant to be

Take my hand
Take my whole life too
Cause I can’t help
Falling in love with you

Oh I can’t help
Falling in love with you

Elvis Presley - 1962 -

In my opinion Shameless by Garth Brooks is the ultimate love song (and I don't even really like country all that much). Its greatness.

Fade Into You
Mazzy Star
(So Tonight That I Might See)

I want to hold the hand inside you
I want to take a breath that's true
I look to you and I see nothing
I look to you to see the truth
You live your life
You go in shadows
You'll come apart and you'll go black
Some kind of night into your darkness
Colors your eyes with what's not there.

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

A stranger's light comes on slowly
A stranger's heart without a home
You put your hands into your head
And then smiles cover your heart

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew

Fade into you
Strange you never knew
Fade into you
I think it's strange you never knew
I think it's strange you never knew
