9. All of Me by John Legend
This song is one of the rawest love songs ever written. John Legend wrote this song back in 2013 for his then-fiancee Chrissie Teigen. Like actual love that is a mixture of good and bad, the song is replete with contrasts like “you’re my end and my beginning, even when I lose, I’m winning.” It gives us listeners a peek of their intimate relationship.

The video ends with a snippet from their actual wedding. It ends happily ever after. They are married with three lovely children.
8. Perfect by Ed Sheeran
Is there ever a perfect love song? This probably is the one! The romantic picture it portrays while the couple dances barefoot in the dark, the woman self-conscious that she doesn’t look her best but her man is totally smitten by her and he whispers that she looks perfect. It’s such a short moment in a lifetime but it was captured in a song.
Could it be any sweeter that this was written by Ed Sheeran for his wife? Ed Sheeran is one of the most successful singers of his time and this is his greatest hit.
7. A Thousand Years by Christina Perri
If this song does not make you think about soulmates, then no song ever will. As the title suggests, the woman has loved her beloved for a thousand years and as you listen, she proclaims that she will love him/her for a thousand more. If past lives and reincarnation are real, then the love described in this song transcends lifetimes.
Somehow, souls find their way back to where they belong. The lover patiently but painfully awaits her beloved as she sings how she dies everyday in waiting. In the end, they come together and hopefully stay together through the next lifetimes for a thousand years or probably even more.
6. Canon in D by Pachelbel
It would be beautiful to believe that each couple who ever gets married truly and completely believes that they are marrying their actual soulmate. They both pledge their love, faithfulness and loyalty to each other in front of everyone they hold dear. The vows made in matrimony is nothing short of being one with another person.
This beautiful musical piece was composed in 1680 by Johann Pachelbel. Its symphony did not get lost despite all the changes and the atrocities this world has endured. Just like the hope and belief in weddings, this canon has survived and has been accompanying married couples on their wedding days and beyond.
5. Lava by Disney Music
Disney has been at the forefront of storytelling for decades. It has entertained and helped kids and adults alike to understand stories, folklores, feelings, emotions, and life in general. This short clip of two volcanoes wishing to be with each other is a simple yet accurate rendition of what happens as you await your beloved. It starts as an individual looking for a partner and then things do not go as planned.
Sometimes these feelings of rejection creep up and you sink under the weight of your defeat and sadness. Only to be reborn again and realize that everything has a way of fixing things in the end. From being lonely, suddenly you and your soulmate are inseparable.
4. My Universe by Coldplay X BTS
Songs have a way of being more special when you know who it was written for. This love song was written by Chris Martin for Dakota Johnson. A few clicks of searching, you can even watch a video of Dakota watching Coldplay and BTS perform this for her.
Coldplay is joined by BTS. BTS is one of the most popular Korean bands and they included Korean lines to this song. After translation, it reveals another facet of this love story. The beloved is the star and the universe that illuminates his/her lover. They sing “we are made of each other.” This song is definitely for soulmates.
3. Lovesong by 311
This song has a hypnotic quality in it. The singer proclaims how much his beloved influences him for the better. He is suddenly whole, clean, free, young, fun, and at home again because they are together.
During the times that they are apart, he professes again and again “I will always love you.” This is a song for two people who belong to each other and have a kind of love that fills each other up. This love is only understood by the both of them. DIstance does not diminish the singer’s love for his partner even if he is heavily burdened by it.
Everything falls back into place when they are together again because together, they are “whole again.”
2. I knew I Loved You by Savage Garden
There are times in your life when you meet someone and you actually feel it in your bones that you have known him/her for a very long time. Perhaps you really did.
