Prince's most romantic song

What is the most romantic song Prince ever wrote. For me "When were dancing close and slow" does it for me completley. He has wrote many romatic songs but this song just touches me emotionaly for some reason. It has moved me to tears once not ashamed to admit it.

If we're talking "romantic" -- like the kind of song you can sing to a girl and make her cry because of the love she feels from you through the words, music, and the way it is played... this one song tops them all:

"The Grand Progression"

Can it be in this seemingly short space of time
We've lived a year or 2 inside our minds?
Now I want 2 whisper in your ear
That U're OK

If love were gold then I would be fixed 4 life
If I was a star, then baby, U would be the night
And I want 2 live my whole life through
Inside of U

CHORUS:
Darling it seems I have found the grand progression
Whenever I'm in your arms
From July until June, every sun and every moon
Melting inside of your charms

If there really is a God up above
2 him I owe my life 4 U my love

edit: if we stick with released songs only, i'd have to go with Krystal's choice: "When We're Dancing Close & Slow" -- it's proved itself to be very romantic in at least one of my longtime relationships

"Adore" and "The Grand Progression" top off my list. I don't know if he'll ever top those.

poetbear68	Has Prince ever really written a romantic song? I mean, there's a lot of sensuality in songs like International Lover and Insatiable, and theres all sorts of songs that have the full out x-rated thing goin' on. But even in the Emancipation period, those songs were more doting than romantic. Perhaps A Million Days or Call My Name are good romantic songs, but that's subjective at best.

Well how about "Venus De Milo" and "Alexa De Paris"? smile
