I’m all out of love, I’m so lost without you
I know you were right believing for so long
I’m all out of love, what am I without you?
I can’t be too late to say that I was so wrong
The Silencers...razor blades of love
RE: I’m Not in Love is a love song.
That is a well written and heartbreaking song from the male point of view. Denial and the fictional technique of the unreliable narrator (as someone telling the story for the listener to discern the truth behind it).
“Separate Ways” by Journey
“You Give Love A Bad Name by Bon Jovi
“Love Bites” by Def Leppard
“I’ll Never Fall In Love Again by Dionne Warwich
“Love Is A Hurtin’ Thing” by Lou Rawls
The emotionally touching album Surfacing by Sarah McLachlan.
Interplay of love and then hoping the lost person will be carried in the arms of an angel to a place far from the pains of this life. Building a Mystery, Sweet Surrender, Angel.

Harry Nilsson...you’ve been warned.
Along those lines:
From “The Wedding Singer”
“Somebody Kill Me Please” (Language)

One of the saddest and greatest blues songs is So Many Roads.
I nearly wore out the John Hammond LP by that title. At age 18 I wondered what a future love and loss would be like.
But I was later moved by the genuine emotion in the live Joe Bonamassa version on Live From The Royal Albert Hall.
The narrator tried to distance himself by blaming the railroad engineer and brakeman who moved the train in the bleak, lonely night as the woman he loves is leaving him along in his house near the tracks. Helplessness and lost love. A magnificent song and version.

Not sure if this is a love song or not, but it is the most bizarre song lyric you may have ever sung along to.

They left the room for a minute or two
Now, I know exactly what I’m going to do
It’s been so long since your vital signs went
And you don’t look the same in that oxygen tent
Now, if I get caught, I don’t care if I get hung
I can’t let my baby linger on in an iron-lung
Good-bye my sweet, understand what I’ve done
You can’t suffer no more if the motor won’t run
I pulled the plug, I pulled the plug
Yeah, I pulled the plug on my love
I pulled the plug, I pulled the plug
Yeah, I pulled the plug on my love
Yeah, something like that
You look so pale, you’ve lost so much weight
Well, six months ago was the last time you ate
If you would just smile, my tears would come like a flood
But, your heart ain’t even pumping, your body’s all done
Now, if I get caught, oh, they can give me the chair
At least I know I didn’t just leave you lying there
Good-bye my sweet, understand what I’ve done
You can’t suffer no more if the motor won’t run
I pulled the plug, I pulled the plug
Yeah, I pulled the plug on my love
