I want to know prog songs with love as main theme and lyrics. Please help, it's for my GF, but I don't like pop songs.

And You and I - Yes
In the Presence Of - Yes (well, this is actually a psuedo-religious song to some new agey divine force, but it sounds like a love song and makes a lot more sense that way) Madrigal - Rush Beneath the Surface - Dream Theater (tragic love song/relationship that never got started. This is one of the most beautiful things I have ever heard). Turn of the Century - Yes Halo Effect - Rush (you probably don't want to play this for your girlfriend, though) Marid's Gift of Art - maudlin of the Well (I think this is actually about Toby's daughter or something, but it still has love as it's theme, albeit a different kind of love than you're probably looking for) Presto - Rush Alien Shore - Rush The End is Beautiful - Echolyn (an "end of relationship" song) Zipporah - Amaseffer and... Together as One - Death (joking, joking. Never play this for your GF unless you want to avoid marrying her at all costs, in which case I don't know why you'd be dating her).

I'm surprised that no one has mentioned it yet: Pain of Salvation - This Heart Of Mine
One of the most beautiful love songs Oh and there's an other one: John Wetton and Anneke van Giersbergen - To Catch a Thief |

Some of these suggestions may be by prog artists, but are not prog songs. But this always happens in threads.

From the same album, I think "Cliché" would work too. |

In the Presence Of by Yes is the best choice because:
1) The lyrical content is actually reflected in the music. 2) It's still prog as hell. |
