It can be instrumental, classical, whatever. But something that makes your heart soar without being mawkish, sappy, or overdone.

EDIT
I'll offer up the track "She's Leaving the Bank" from Ry Cooder's soundtrack to Paris, Texas. I can hardly keep from smiling in pure childish glee when I listen to it.

Ry Cooder is actually a really, really great choice!

Any of these would do for me:

Your Blues
Through the Windowpane
Stranded

Part of me feels tempted to mention Funeral as well, but I don't know if the romance of that album would be too much tempered by its grief.

Show Me Heaven - Maria Mckeee

It's romantic to me even though every last sinew of the wannabe music critic in me fights my choice

Stranded

I thought "The Saints?!" and whistled, but when I looked it was Roxy Music (very smooth =) )

It's a good question, one I can't answer though.

Probably the love themes from Mancini Soundtracks like Breakfast at Tiffany or something like that...
Or Maybe some Dusty Springfield and Andy Williams classic song...
Anytime I listen to them I feel like I'm falling in love
