I Love You - Romantic Music

I love you - send this music to your loved one(s). Send to your husband, wife, partner, friend, boyfriend or girlfriend to show them how much you love and care for them. Some people assume that if they love another person, the other person is simply going to know this. That is not always the case. Your loved ones need to be told and shown that you love them to know for certain that you really do.

Many people celebrate their love for their partner by sending cards or letters, giving gifts or flowers and arranging meals in restaurants or romantic nights in hotels. People who would like to have a romantic relationship with somebody may use the occasion to make this known, often anonymously. Valentine's cards are often decorated with images of hearts, red roses or Cupid. Common Valentine's Day gifts are flowers chocolates, candy, lingerie and champagne or sparkling wine. However, some people use the occasion to present lavish gifts, such as jewelry. Many restaurants and hotels have special offers at this time. These can include romantic meals or weekend breaks.

The most common Valentine's Day symbols are the heart, particularly in reds and pinks, and pictures or models of Cupid. Cupid is usually portrayed as a small winged figure with a bow and arrow. In mythology, he uses his arrow to strike the hearts of people. People who have fallen in love are sometimes said to be 'struck by Cupid's arrow. Other symbols of Valentine's Day are couples in loving embraces and the gifts of flowers, chocolate, red roses and lingerie that couples often give each other.

Jon Brooks: I Love You

Tell your loved ones that you love them often. So many people regret when their loved ones pass away and they cannot remember hearing or saying the words, "I love you," in recent years. Prevent this deep regret from happening in your relationships by specifically saying, "I love you," to the people you love.

Spend time with the people you love. Many people claim to love their friends, spouses or children but do not carve out time to spend with them. If you do not spend time with someone, you are communicating that they are not important to you. Loving someone means investing time in them.

Make your loved ones a priority in your life. If you love someone, then you will not shove that person to the bottom of your priority list. You will not cancel plans at the last minute to accommodate other priorities in your life or, worse, refuse to make plans because other parts of your life are always more important.

Invest in what someone you love cares about. For example, even if you have never had any interest in construction equipment, a parent who loves her son will take the time to learn about construction equipment because the child cares about it. If you want to show people how much you love them, then value what they value.

Make yourself vulnerable to the people you love. Part of loving another person involves opening up your heart and revealing who you really are. To show someone that you love him, you must be honest and open about who you are.

Accept your loved ones as they are. When you love someone, you do not try to change her. Instead, appreciate her for the unique and precious person she is.

Make sacrifices. Showing someone that you love him often comes with sacrifice. The needs of the person you love are more important than your wants. For example, a child's need to play outside with you overrides your desire to take a nap. In some cases, making painful decisions that are in the best interest of the one you love is the best way to show your love for him.

Commit to the people you love. Even when you do not feel loving toward someone, choose to stay invested. The feelings of love might ebb and flow, but your commitment is the glue that holds the relationship together and shows how much you love someone.

Everything is a satisfying, self-assured debut single from the up and coming artist Lynsey Grace, featuring an evocative, epic and atmospheric pop ballad. Mancunian Singer/Songwriter Lynsey Grace teamed up with film composer Jon Brooks to produce her first emotive single. She’s creative, passionate and likes to express herself through songwriting. Lynsey Grace draws her inspiration from her life experiences, looking to connect with the listener. Jon Brooks specialises in Music Production for Film, Television, Artists and Advertising. Lynsey and Jon have been working together over the last year and intend to release some more of their material in the very near future.

ARTIST NOTES
(Lynsey Grace) Everything is a very personal song to me and one which Im excited to release as my first track from my body of work. Im extremely proud of the song as I poured a lot of emotion into the lyrics. I hope the listener will feel this and be able to relate to some of the lyrics themselves. Jon Brooks created the emotive and beautiful music which complements the lyrics and enhances the emotional response I was aiming to express. The track is soulful and raw, and there is no doubt this song was written from the heart. Everything is a very special song to us both, it was the first track that really connected with Jon and I. It also confirmed we have a special creative bond and musical working relationship.

LYRICS:

VERSE 1
Only now I see
Only now I know the truth
Forbidden for so long to know the reason why
Heartfelt was my plea to take away the pain I felt inside
Trying for so long to understand the reason why

PRE CHORUS
I dont know why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain
And I dont understand why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain

CHORUS
Time to, to take a bow now
Show me this person
That youve become before me
Im not willing or able
I walk away
Im not willing to stay

VERSE 2
So sure I knew the way
So certain that I cant deny
Of everything I knew
Of everything that once was mine
My heart has fell into an empty space I cannot see
Been trying for so long to understand the reason why

PRE CHORUS
I dont know why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain
And I dont understand why everything is different
Every time I look at you I feel this pain

CHORUS x2
Time to, to take a bow now
Show me this person
That youve become before me
Im not willing or able
I walk away
Im not willing to stay
No, no, not willing to stay...
