Clinton, you can't be a young cockerel anymore.
MAYBE was recorded by the Ink spots 1942-06-19, and A KISS
TO BUILD A DREAM ON was recorded by Armstrong on 1951-07-24.

Here is a short list of older songs in which the theme, mood and
lyrics seem (to me) appropriate to your request.

Ink Spots - If I Didn't Care
Ink Spots - MY Prayer
Ink Spots - I Don't Want To Set The World On Fire
Ink Spots - I'll Get By (As Long As I Have You)
McGuire Sisters - Sincerely
McGuire Sisters - Ev'ry Day Of My Life
Mills Brothers - Be My Life's Companion
Tommy Dorsey - I'm Getting Sentimental Over You (instrumental)
Harry James - You Made Me Love You (I Didn't Want To Do It)
Guy Lombardo - I'm Confess'n That I Love You
Bing Crosby - You Belong To My Heart
Leon Payne   - I Love You Because (You Understand)
Bob Wills    - Send Me A Red Rose

Going through my CDs I was suprised how many songs are the "Hurtin'" type, like: I'm Dotting Each I With a Tear Drop, or: I Laugh When I Think How I Cried Over You.

My best wishes to You and Herself
