In Search of Wartime Themed Long Songs
To celebrate Valentine's Day I am trying to put together a collection of songs that deal with falling in love during wartime. Most of the songs I have been able to come up with are more modern (Decemberists, Wilco, Josh Ritter) and while I am interested to hear any modern suggestions I would very much like to add some older songs as well.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

"Life During Wartime" by Talking Heads. Toward the end the singer refers to his companion and how they make a good team. "you make me shiver" is I believe how he puts it.....

Thanks for the suggestions, everyone. I will give them all a listen.
