Paul's lyrics from Here Today reminds me of Shakespeare's Sonnet 18 in a way that it immortalizes a loved one and the constancy of affection:
"And if I say I really loved you and was glad you came along
When you were here today
For you were in my song"
Sonnet 18 in modern English:
"And you will never die, as you will live on in my enduring poetry.
As long as there are people still alive to read poems this sonnet will live,
and you will live in it."

Life hack: if you ever want to cry so so much, try listening to the bridge of Unknown Nth by Hozier as if it's you singing it to yourself.
"Do you know, I could break beneath the weight
Of the goodness, love, I still carry for you
That I'd walk so far just to take
The injury of finally knowing you”

when hozier compared himself to a wild animal saying screaming “do not let me in if you do not want me. i will come back if you feed me, hold me, want me. stop. you do not want this. i can be dangerous, you do not want me.” and then “i’ll be howling outside your door, screaming, scratching, calling to you, for you. don’t you hear me?”

When Jane Austen said “If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more” and when Hozier said “I’m so full of love, I can barely eat” and when Nizar Qabbani said “because my love for you is higher than words, I have decided to fall silent.”

francesca by hozier is easily one of the best love songs out there.
the fact that she is suffering an eternity of torture which includes being stuck in a hurricane but still loves paolo just as much as she loved him when they were alive
the fact that hozier said in an interview: "there's no punishment in spending an eternity arm in arm with the person you'd die for"
the fact that she admits that she would do it all again (go through a terrible death and then litreal hell and torture) just to hold him for a single minute
the fact that the song ends with the lyrics "heaven is not fit to house a love like you and i" and were the song played on repeat the end would flow perfectly with the beginning in order to mimic the hurricane
