I thought of “Roxanne” by The Police, “Main Street” by Bob Seger and an old one from the days of yesteryear “Lili Marleen”.
Any others?

Iron Maiden - 22 acacia avenue
Also 'Charlotte the Harlot'. Probably the same Charlotte as in 22 Acacia Avenue.
I completely forgot 22 AA was a trilogy - I believe the other part is “hooks in you.” And yes, same Charlotte.

It’s not a happy ending for the prostitute, but I am in love with “Street Hassle” by Lou Reed.
"She Comes Home To Me"- Adam Sandler
I’m shocked no one has said this yet.. Babylon Sisters - Steely Dan.

Walk on the Wild Side by Lou Reed
Darling Nikki by Prince could be interpreted as such
Blow job Betty - Too Short
I always thought Jane Says by Jane’s Addiction was about a prostitute.
AFAIK, it's about a promiscuous addict with an abusive boyfriend.

Pandy Fackler - Ween
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Songs_about_prostitutes although these aren't necessarily about affection.
I would say this is one of the interpretations of Billy Idol's Rebel Yell. He said in a 2018 interview that it's a song about love, and he has said more than once that the name came from bourbon he was drinking with the Rolling Stones, but I haven't ever read that it was definitely about a prostitute. So that's just an opinion.
Madame George - Van Morrison
Iron Maiden's "22 Acacia Avenue" is a classic.
Like every rap song
