love theme

Couple's musical signature

A love theme is a musical motif or melody associated with romance in a film, television show, or theatrical production.

It typically plays during romantic scenes between central characters and recurs throughout the work to underscore emotional moments: The love theme from Romeo and Juliet is instantly recognizable.

Love themes often become popular songs in their own right.
