Steal these lyrics from some of the most beautiful love songs of our time. Post them on your Facebook page or pen them in a Valentine’s card to someone special. Recite them over a candlelit dinner to your love. Gather up your courage and sing them softly over dessert. So much the better If the two of you share a favorite artist or have a song that’s uniquely yours. My money says no one will ever top Whitney Houston’s soaring anthem to eternal love. Rent “The Bodyguard” one more time for a special Valentine’s viewing and glory in Houston’s golden voice.
