UNREQUITED LOVE SONGS

 

How about the "other" love song. Not about breakups or lost loves, but the love that is not returned.

 

My first choice would be a beautiful love song that most people may not think of as unrequited. 

 

"Cherish" - The Association

 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bCfKvuh_uq8

 

Cherish is the word I use to describe
All the feeling that I have hiding here for you inside
You don't know how many times I've wished that I had told you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could hold you
You don't know how many times I've wished that I could mold you
Into someone who could cherish me as much as I cherish you

  Aubrey - Bread

 

And Aubrey was her name
I never knew her, but I loved her just the same
I loved her name
Wish that I had found the way
And the reasons that would make her stay
I have learned to lead a life apart from all the rest
If I can't have the one I want, I'll do without the best

I'll Be There: Gerry & The Pacemakers    (This poor guy knows she doesn't love him, and never will, but he's content to be there for her when her relationships blow up. Unrequited love songs are invariably sad because they never have happy endings).
