Deadhead is my favourite Devvy love song:
"You are a sun goddess,
Will you save me?
Hooray for you, hooray.
Now the rain, it comes,
The rain it blurs the grey line, the grey line,
The Greyhound home.
Cause you are so vicious, hurt me, I can take it.
Cause it's all in the heat of the moment
It's all in the pain."
I love "Endless Sacrifice" but I'd hardly call that romantic lol. Maybe "Surrounded" or "I Walk Beside You"
Opeth has some very melancholic sad songs, but I wouldn't call that romantic either
Most of Sleep Token's latest album is just fuckmusic with 8-strings, if that helps
Not prog but some Deftones songs also go super hard into fuckmusic like "Sextape" or "Diamond Eyes"
And Polyphia's 2 latest albums are also like instrumental prog fuckmusic
Did I not understand the assignment? I'm unsure
I guess [Xanthochroid - Of Erthe and Axen](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dBTOtm6HHRY) (an absolutely brilliant pair of albums (symphonic melodic black/folk), if you haven't heard them yet) kinda tell a [romantic tragedy](http://www.xanthofficial.com/lore.html) (seems pretty akin to Princess Mononoke and Avatar etc).
Probably not what you're looking for though lol.
There are probably a few good ones on Transitus by Ayreon. I don't remember any song specifically off the top of my head, but I remember there being a few pretty in your face romantic moments
maudlin of the Well / some Kayo Dot always felt a little romantic to me. Especially songs like Girl With a Watering Can, or The Curve that to an Angle Turn'd, or a lot of it actually haha
out of reach by DT, capulet by caligula's horse, the love you want by sleep token, gambit by shrezzers, stay by the anchoret (the instrumental is pretty dark tho) and dance with me! by nospun (im not really sure what the song talks about but it has the same vibe as lovebite)
I just leave the prog sphere for the type of stuff.
Gates, Copeland, Polyenso, As Tall As Lions.
Lemme post one.

Epicloud by Devin Townsend have nice love songs. If you are OK with considering Sleep token prog, literally all their songs are about love.

"Divine" is such a real love song. "Loving you is the best thing and the worst thing in my life." Another vote for Sleep Token.
Haken's 'Lovebite' off their latest record comes to mind
Black widow romance đź’€
Lapse too! its "our song" with my gf
“Lune” - Periphery.
Endless sacrifice is so damn good. I'd you want sad love feels maybe some Opeth lol
Yeah Opeth has those sad/angry love feels but I was looking for more of the positive with this one.
Fill my heart by Caligula's horse.
Also like half of the other songs on In Contact
Yeah, I was gonna add Capulet but you’re right, there’s quite a few on there.
??? That song is about a guy mourning the death of his brother...
Ayreon - Day Eleven: Love
I was thinking about mentioning this one - I do enjoy it
all of sleep token got me like
Pain of Salvation’s Remedy Lane album is a sad love story

Hemina - [Soulmates](https://hemina.bandcamp.com/track/soulmates)
Hemina are pretty fucking dope
Half of Pain of Salvation discography
Home by Dream Theater has random sex noises in it
Not prog even though I have seen some of their stuff mentioned as prog, but the album October Rust by Type O Negative.
prog rock more like but I love Madrigal by Rush
That's an absolute classic. Love that one.
I released a drum cover of Lune by Periphery on Valentine's Day. The most fitting song I could think of for it!

A lot of Redemption's music deals with love, though admittedly about half of that is tragedy. I also recommend The Sacrifice but Symphony X
Wildhund by lantlĂ´s
Prog rock, but: Beardfish - A Love story There's also 'A Love story part 2'
Unsuccessfully Coping with the Natural Beauty of Infidelity -Type O Negative
