I'm looking for suggestions for good love songs of the rock variety. No mushy lite music crap. They can be ballad-y, but not wimpy! I want to make a cd for my cuz and his new bride, plus a copy for hubby & moi. :)

When you list your suggestions, some lyrics and/or a link to sample the song would be greatly appreciated.

One I'm planning to include is Hard to Concentrate by the Chili Peppers~

All I want is for you to be happy and
Take this moment to make you my family and
Finally you have found something perfect and
Finally you have found...

Want to treasure the rest of your days here and
Give you pleasure in so many ways dear and
Finally you have found something perfect and
Finally you have found... here we go...

Do you want me to show up for duty and
Serve this woman and honor her beauty and
Finally you have found something perfect and
Finally you have found... yourself

With me... will... you... agree to take
This man... into your world...
And now... we are as one...

Sweet precision and soft collision awww
Hearts about to palpitate
And I find it hard to seperate and

All I want is for you to be happy and
Take this woman and make you my family and
Finally you have found someone perfect and
Finally you have found... yourself

    Answering Machine by The Replacements.

    It's kind of not a perfect love but it's a heartbreaking love and it has nice distorted, non-wimpy guitar :D

    Try to breathe some life into a letter
    Losing hope, never gonna be together
    My courage is at it's peak
    You know what I mean?
    How do say you're O.K. to
    An answering machine?
    How do you say good night to
    An answering machine?

    Big town's got its losers
    Small town's got its vices
    A handful of friends
    One needs a match, one needs some ice
    Call-waiting phone in another time zone
    How do you say I miss you to
    An answering machine?
    How do say good night to
    An answering machine?

    I get enough of that

    Try to free a slave of ignorance
    Try and teach a whore about romance

    How do you say I miss you to
    An answering machine?
    How do you say good night to
    An answering machine?
    How do you say I'm lonely to
    An answering machine?
    The message is very plain
    Oh, I hate your answering machine
    I hate your answering machine
    I hate your answering machine...
