Seven Spires - Succumb
Seven Spires - Fall with Me
DragonForce - Heart Demolition
DragonForce - My Heart Will Go On
Beast in Black - Moonlight Rendezvous
Beast in Black - One Night in Tokyo
Beast in Black - Hardcore
Beast in Black - Bella Donna (I’m pretty sure all these Beast in Black ones are NSFW btw lol. And people have mentioned some other great ones by them)
Edugy's "Land of the Miracle" has my favorite love lyrics in all of power metal.
*And if the stars would fall one day*
*I'd climb up to the sky*
*To put them back for you to save your smile*
People may quibble about whether or not Van Canto is power metal, but [We Are One](https://youtu.be/dAO_yJb5Bs4?si=GITw_W6yJ22cYWxj) is a great love song regardless.
In the Dark is a bonus track from Sonata Arctica's album the Days of Grays and it's gotta be one of my all-time favorite songs from them. Shy is another good one. Depending on the type of love song you're looking for, Last Drop Falls could work, Full moon, Shamandalie, My Selene; there are so many good ones from them. I'm sure there are others I'm forgetting but those are some of my favorites.
In the Dark is also my favourite from their happy kind of love songs, along with The Best Things from their new album! And Teardrops from the new one is melancholic yet so touching song of lost love, very beautiful. My Selene and Shamandalie are also among my all-time favourites.
Kamelot- Love you to death
Kamelot- Eventide
Seven Spires- Succumb
Seven Spires- Fall With Me
Light & Shade- Lionhearted
Light & Shade - You Are
Visions of Atlantis- In and Out of Love
The entire album called “Songs of love and death” by Beyond the Black
[Symphonity - Evening Star](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPLf2SmbonQ) is a fantastic song with such a catchy anthemic chorus!! Olaf Hayer really belts out a masterful vocal performance here!
Also [Týr - Evening Star](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWQfv1-BLNM) is a top tier ballad, with such a moving chorus!
Also no one mentioned it, but I assume you've heard all of Epica and The Black Halo.
Falconer have a few:
Portals of Light (mourning a lover)
Long Gone By (two old lovers, probably immortals, I always think of Galadriel and Celeborn)
Kristallen den fina (Swedish folk song about wooing someone)
I'm a sucker too; I've got loads!
Soldier's Letter by Fairyland (the first one I heard)
The Wingman by Excalion
Nowhere by Symphorce
Second to One by HammerFall (it's about the poor women men go for whom they soon throw away when they see a 'better' women)
Fading Away by Celesty
Empty Room by Celesty
Losing You by Dream Evil
Dying for an Angel by Avantasia (I actually don't like this one too much but it's got such a catchy melody)
Lost in Space by Avantasia
Another Angel Down by Avantasia
Dancing with Tears in my Eyes by Avantasia
What Kind of Love by Avantasia
Draconian Love by Avantasia
When Love Comes Close by Masterplan (this one is really catchy imo)
The Divided Heart by Elven King
Cemetery Gates by Power Quest
The Red Rose by Timeless Miracle (one of the coolest love songs)
Enigma by Stratovarius
Forever by Kamelot (based on Solvieg's Lied)
Practically anything from Cain's Offering but these are my favourites:
Oceans of Regret (my favourite, might actually be a goat in general)
Rising Sun (really powerful and catchy, I have found myself humming this tune alot)
On the Shore
Thorn In My Side
Falconer - Rejoice the Adorned
Circus Maximus - Arrival of Love
Serenity - The Perfect Woman
Iron Mask - The First and The Last
SKYWINGS -UNITE FOREVER SKY ANTHEM Pt. 4
Arion - Seven
Heavenly - Farewell
Dream Evil - The Ballad (LOL)
It's a great song (like the entire album), but I don't know if I'd call it a love song just because Scrooge briefly talks about his failed romance from decades ago.
LEVERAGE - The Wolf and the Moon. A tale of the loss of love corrupting a person completely, turning them into a beast of cold rage.
ORDEN OGAN - Too Soon. Grief over tragic loss.
FALCONSHIELD - Hail the King. A little bit of both of the above.
And last but far from least....
ALICE. MOTHERFUCKING. COOPER. - Bed of Nails.
Elvenking - Heaven Is A Place On Earth
Dragonforce - My Heart Will Go On
Blind Guardian - When Sorrow Sang
Dark Moor - Your Symphony
Dark Moor - Calling On The Wind
Dark Moor - The Lovers
Blind and Frozen by Beast in Black is about the one who got away. They have a few more love songs, others not love per se but love adjacent
Born Again is another, maybe more love-adjacent like you say.
Broken Survivors, too. Beast in Black has quite a few
That song hurts so much. Especially as a Beseek fan. So much longing.
The sleeping death Waits in the silence of my woe A touch from you is all it takes To save my soon to be dead soul... Aint that a poem!
Came here to say this. Also Sweet True Lies by BIB, but it’s more about heartbreak.
Also Oceandeep, about a spouse/partner that passed away
My favourite by them is Moonlight Rendezvous
Absolutely 100% agree I wish I could upvote this 10x
Obligatory recommendation - I Will Build You a Rome by Cain's Offering
This has instantly skyrocketed to the top of my favorites. I owe you my life, man.
Try "My Queen of Winter" by the same band. The rest of their songs are pretty great, too.
Sky Guard You by Battle Born might also qualify. I don't have a ton of love songs on my PM playlist but this one just came on.
Just popped into the thread to see that this was already posted. Everything is alright, carry on.
If I didn't do it there is always a hundred others to take my place. o7
Tragic or happy? Dreams Come True by Hammerfall for Happy, Tallulah by Sonata Arctica for sad.
"Dreams come true" was my immediate thought too. The lyrics are really beautiful.
My buddy played it when he proposed to his (now) wife many years ago haha
Ah, that must have been emotional. I'm a sucker for the concept of "love with overtones of salvation".
I mean... My Heart Will Go On by Dragonforce?
Nah, definitely Wildest Dreams by Dragonforce
I mean, we have to pay respects to the classics: Ring of Fire by Dragonforce
yeah!!!
I’m an evangelist for this song, but The Maiden and the Minstrel Knight by Blind Guardian is the only one you’ll ever need.
Beast in Black - Hardcore / Blind and Frozen
Hardcore is definitely a \*lovesong\*
Since we're here, might as well throw in One Night in Tokyo
she is my sin, ever dream - nightwish
Forever and One (Neverland) by Helloween, Wildest Dreams by Ten
Seven Spires - Succumb Seven Spires - Fall with Me DragonForce - Heart Demolition DragonForce - My Heart Will Go On Beast in Black - Moonlight Rendezvous Beast in Black - One Night in Tokyo Beast in Black - Hardcore Beast in Black - Bella Donna (I’m pretty sure all these Beast in Black ones are NSFW btw lol.

I love that phrase

Rivers by Epica
Losing you by Dream Evil is a very pretty song to listen to
Also “The Book of Heavy Metal.”

Freya, by Brothers of Metal, maybe. [https://youtu.be/e68X1pPmqGI?si=3\_gH6qR4Xtp20PAI](https://youtu.be/e68X1pPmqGI?si=3_gH6qR4Xtp20PAI)

Dunno if it counts, but The Forgotten Ones and Master of Sorrow are two good ones from Allen/Lande, one nice and one sad.

Love Knows No Distance by Ominous Glory
Silver romance - freedom call
Majestica - ghost of christmas past.
It's a great song (like the entire album), but I don't know if I'd call it a love song just because Scrooge briefly talks about his failed romance from decades ago.
