"Valentine’s Day is the February 14th holiday where lovers traditionally exchange love notes and romantic gifts. According to the U.S.Greeting Card Association, Valentine’s Day is the second most popular day for sending greeting cards trailing only Christmas. Recently, more and more valentines are sent electronically."
I went through many websites in search of songs suitable for Valentine's Day and then realise that many songs from the 50s, 60s, and 70s are love songs, meant to be sung anytime between lovers and not necessarily during special occasions.
1) #Have I Told You Lately That I Love You? - Jim Reeves

Happy Valentine’s Day Brother Andy, all friends and their love ones. Many thanks for your list of awesome songs and I still remember on this day, 14 February, exactly 14 years ago as I was among the sold-out crowd when multiple Grammy winner, Eric Clapton, who is still ‘God’ on stage to many performed lots of blues and songs I’ve never heard him do in concert.
As I recall this concert, it was an honor to be present at this show with my wife on this Valentine’s Day Special gig as Clapton thrills with a no-fuss show to the delight of all the loved-up couples. What a great concert this was as Clapton’s genius shone through and his vocal is definitely richer, fuller, his guitar playing impeccable and tight. For many, it was the towering guitar works and the timeless “Wonderful Tonight” that sent us to meltdown for Valentine’s Day.
Cheers and I wish you a great day👍❤️🥰..
