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

Still Got the Blues - Gary Moore
This may or may not fit ...yet maybe a lost love became so because it was unrequited. Either way this is a classic full of heartfelt soul and passion as Gary's guitar sings the blues.
Here in my heart, there's an empty space
Where you used to be
But I've still got the blues for you
There is one thing I know
I've still got the blues for you

"I Can't Make You Love Me" - Bonnie Raitt
This song brings me back to a time long ago, yet still goes straight to the heart, reminding me how it felt knowing the "magic" was over.
The love you don't feel when you're holding me
Morning will come and I'll do what's right
Just give me till then to give up this fight
And I will give up this fight
You can't make your heart feel something it won't
Here in the dark, in these final hours
I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power
But you won't, no you won't
'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't

Nova Baby - The Black Keys
All this love of mine
All my precious time
You waste it cause you
Don't know what you want
You don't know what you want
There go the kids, the have-nots
Elevator ladies in the parking lots
You saw it all and I recall
The dream you told me, dream you told me.
This empty heart, you left me with
The ribbon on my parting gift
I'm falling hard for every yard
Of the dream you sold me, dream you sold me, oh!
All your enemies
Smile when your fall
You take it cause you
Don't know what you want
You don't know what you want
All this love of mine
All my precious time
You waste it cause you
Don't know what you want
You don't know what you want
