SB's "Carie" from Snow is awfully pretty.
Marillion consider "Easter" to be a love song dedicated to the people of Ireland. The song that really turned my head when I first heard it.
I'm also a big Al Jarreau fan (KC drummer Pat Mastelotto even performed on his High Crime CD), and he's known for some beautiful songs. "After All", "Teach Me Tonight", "We're In This Love Together"...just gorgeous songs.
I also enjoy Toto's "I'll Be Over You" and "I Can't Hold You Back".

Billy Ocean's "Get Out of My Dreams (Get into My Car), almost as good as "King of Wishful Thinking."

I have to agree, not what your mind would first turn to when thinking of a love song, and certainly not carrying the cliché associated with them, but the album really is beautiful and simply amazing. Have to mention "Second Love" and "This Heart Of Mine" as the more traditional love songs on the album.
Also "Wake Up" by Coheed & Cambria always gets to me.

Here's some sappy love song hard-hair band 80's rock for you.
Honeymoon Suite - The Big Prize (1986)
Two decent songs that could be called Love Songs:
What Does It Take & Take My Hand.
A little softer:
Elton John - Too Low For Zero
I Guess That's Why The Call It The Blues

David - Never doubt in the dark that which you believe to be true in the light.
