I've been very fond of "I'm not in love" by 10cc (yes, it's a love song) for many years. Also, top of mind at the moment, 'Strange, Dear, but True, Dear' from Kiss Me Kate. But most of the best American standards are love songs, so it's practically impossible to choose!
Those are all excellent options. The American standards years do make it tough for those looking for traditional love songs, it's true. But they are such luscious choices!
