Just wondering... what are some of your favorite Broadway love songs that never actually use the word "love"?

I Could Write a Book says "lovers." That would be considered the L word, right?
Hmm...tough one.
The title song of "No Strings."

I happen to like New York. I've never heard it performed before monday night at Broadway by the year 1930 and when Mary Testa sang this song, it felt like a love song to New York. I was tearing up towards the end. Its become my favorite Cole Porter song. Just brillant.
