Songs about unrequited love

All right all, I need songs that tug on the heart strings, songs about one person loving another and that other, just not feeling the same. Songs that make you border line depressed. Let's work a list

Radiohead - creep

Therapy - Unbeliever

Ricky Martin - Livin la vida loca

That's Hung's hit now...

they should just rename this music board the "need help making mix tapes/cds" board.

i'd help, but i have a headache right now. maybe later once the advil and beer kick in.

paul young - everytime you go away

trust me, this is the saddest of the sad:

matthew sweet - nothing lasts

and i hate to admit it, but i'm really keen on this song i hear on the radio while i drive in the mountains at work...its a country song, but its really really sad, and its old school country style so its not dumb redneck lyrics and shit:

brad paisley - whisky lullaby

or just forget that last one and get the first and any cure song or that bakesale album sebadoh put out 11 years ago?

...or journey - separate ways (worlds apart)

that song is my fav to listen to after some moron girl dumps me cuz i pick my nose too much.

The Cure - To Wish Impossible Things
The Cure - Untitled (on Disintegration)
Delerium - Enchanted
Delerium - Til The End Of Time
Delerium - Innocente
Delerium - Myth
Howard Jones - No One Is To Blame
Nick Kershaw - Wouldn't It Be Good
Black Tape For A Blue Girl - Our Future Imagined
The Cranes - Are You Gone?
The Cranes - Far Away
Matthew Sweet - Devil with Green Eyes
Chris Isakk - Wicked Game

I could list more, but that's what everyone else is supposed to do!!

"but you know you're the star of my life story... and i'm so sorry"

Led Zeppelin's entire first album

surrender - single gun theory

Morphine - in spite of me

late last night
I saw you in my living room
you seemed so close but yet so cool
for a long time I thought that you'd be coming back to me
those kind of thoughts can be so cruel
so cruel

Billy Bragg's The Saturday Boy.

Pantera-This Love
Megadeth-Almost Honest
Megadeth-1000 times goodbye

Poison The Well - Grain Of Salt
"Another day passes by. Another attempt at love, remains unrequited" = opening line

Dido- white flag


Can't help it.

Hell yes.

I'd also add Ataris - Untitled
New Found Glory - Dressed To Kill
The Streets - Dry Your Eyes

Camper Van Beethoven- All Her Favorite Fruit

Best song about unrequited love ever written, period.
