I'm noticing some people confuse heartfelt with romantic songs.  Cohen's Halleluiah is heartfelt, not romantic.  Read the lyrics of Erev Shel Shoshanim versus Halleluiah.  Which song would you sing to your significant other if you love them?

Text  

Evening of roses
Let us go out to the grove
Myrrh, perfumes, and Frankincense
Is the carpet under your feet

Night falls slowly
And a wind of rose blows
Let me whisper a song for you slowly
A song of love

Dawn and the dove coos
Your hair is full of dewdrops
Your lips are as roses unto the morning
I will pick them for myself

Erev Shel Shoshanim - An evening of Roses  Hundreds of recordings
My favorites include https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr8zzS-Gjp4  Malka & Joso
The Parvarim  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VEpNy0_EjHU (right two are Simon & Garfunkel look & sound alikes who made a hebrew version of their songs looking just like them). 
Or how about this youth zoom choir Newark Academy

I agree that it is a lovely song with the classical melody of Plaisir d'amour.  Original song is similarly very romantic -
