Hey writerly friends!
Welcome back to Wonderforest for an extra mushy blog post, this week, in current faves! Today I’m giving you guys a list of my top ten mushy romantic songs to write to! (Aka songs I would probably play on my wedding day, tbh) These are all light-hearted, happy, and feel-good romantic songs to listen to, to pop in your ear buds, press play on the playlist and prepare to write some happy, mushy love scenes!
In no particular order, here are my top ten favorite love songs to write romance to:
“I’d Really Love To See You Tonight” by England Dan and John Ford Cole
I'm not talking 'bout movin' in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowin' the stars around
And I'd really love to see you tonight
“Mine” -The 1975
There comes a time in a young man's life
He should settle down and find himself a wife
But I'm just fine 'cause I know that you're mine
“Signed Sealed & Delivered” - Stevie Wonder (Sylow Remix)
Here I am baby
Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours
Here I am baby
Signed, sealed, delivered, I'm yours
“It’s Not Living if it’s not with you” - The 1975
And all I do is sit and think about you
If I knew what you'd do
Collapse my veins wearing beautiful shoes
It's not living if it's not with you
“All Night” – Beyoncé
All night long, sweet love all night long
Sweet love all night long
Sweet love all night long
All I wanna, ain't no other
We together, I remember
Sweet love all night long
“I couldn’t be more in love” -The 1975
So what about these feelings I've got?
We got it wrong
And you said you had enough
What about these feelings I've got?
I couldn't be more in love
“Lover” Taylor Swift
We could let our friends crash in the living room
This is our place, we make the call
And I'm highly suspicious that everyone who sees you wants you
I've loved you three summers now, honey, but I want 'em all
“I Wanna Be With You” - Lady Gaga (2019 Revamped Version)
I won't be right without you
And I might break without you.
I'd rather be poor and happy than rich and alone.
I'll write hit songs about you,
No matter how, we'll get through.
I'll keep on singing for a living,
But I wanna be in love.
And I wanna be with you.
I wanna be with you.
“Just a Step Away” - Carly Rae Jepsen
I’ll never let you down
And I’ll never go away
And if your ever feeling down
I’m just a step away
“All That” - Carly Rae Jepsen
I'll be the magic you'll ever see (ever see)
You can always rely on me
To help you do what you want to do
I wanna be the best you've ever known (ever known)
Just let me in your arms
Just let me in your arms
Show me if you want me
If I'm all that
I will be that
I will be your friend
