What songs bring tears to your eyes every time you hear them? I'm looking for actual song titles and maybe the artist if you know. The lyrics would be nice or even just the lyrics that bring the tears and maybe 'why' they make you cry - can you relate to them somehow?
I have so many, I must be a big softy when it comes to songs and my interpertation. Country songs do it the worst - I just heard a song called "Moments" by Emmett (??) about him walking down the street and being followed by a homeless man and the homeless man says "he wasn't always like this.. he's had his moments, in the sun.. etc." I can't remember the exact words, but I'm going to go look up the lyrics in a moment.
The reason this song touched me is because I have an older brother - 17 years older than me - that I haven't seen in about 11 years at least. He was homeless for awhile 50% his own fault and 50% due to situations beyond his control. Last I heard, he had pulled himself together and was working and had a place to call home but he wants nothing to do with anyone in our family and I miss him and sometimes I wonder if he's still o.k. or if he's back on the streets. I remember happier days with him - he was my favorite brother out of my 3 and I miss him. I get sad thinking that I'll never speak to him again - that he will die without me having the chance to tell him that no matter what I love him.
So this song brought tears to my eyes because of this.
What about you?

there are so many that make me cry.. but I would have to say the song "seasons in the sun" it reminds me of my cousin who passed away last year, we were so close and for many years I thought he was my brother when I was growing up. he had this record and I remember listening to it with him as he sang along with it. there is a part that says " goodbye my friends it's hard to die when all the birds are singing in the sky" and I asked him of he would ever die and he laughed and said "sure" and I was so upset .. of course I was 6 years old and the thought of my big cousin dying and leaving me was too much and he would give me a hug and tell me he wouldn't be that far away from me. I still think of him not being far away now that he is gone. [elp388]
if you get a chance.. go to my profile page and click the second song that is dedicated to my niece who passed away last March. it's called "If I had only known" [elp388]
Considering the time of year, as we approach Holy Week - I would have to say the one that most brings tears to my eyes would be "O Sacred Head Surrounded" because it brings tears of love, sadness, contrition, humility. Also makes me cry is Danny Boy, and there was one in the 70's not sure of the title...(maybe seasons in the sun) some of the lyrics were Goodbye Michelle Michelle my little one... We had joy we had fun, we had seasons in the sun, but the hills that we climbed were two seasons out of time.... Okay I googled it, it is Seasons in the Sun: Goodbye to you, my trusted friend. We've known each other since we're nine or ten. Together we climbed hills or trees. Learned of love and ABC's, skinned our hearts and skinned our knees. Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky, Now that the spring is in the air. Pretty girls are everywhere. When you see them I'll be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time. Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me, I was the black sheep of the family. You tried to teach me right from wrong. Too much wine and too much song, wonder how I get along. Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die when all the birds are singing in the sky, Now that the spring is in the air. Little children everywhere. When you see them I'll be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the wine and the song, like the seasons, all have gone. Goodbye, Michelle, my little one. You gave me love and helped me find the sun. And every time that I was down you would always come around and get my feet back on the ground. Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die when all the bird are singing in the sky, Now that the spring is in the air. With the flowers ev'rywhere. I whish that we could both be there. We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. But the stars we could reach were just starfishs on the beach [Modestah]
Thank you for your response and for posting the lyrics to that wonderful song. I'm not familiar with O Sacred Head Surrounded but now I'm curious so I'll look up the words. Danny Boy is another one too! [HeavenUnaware]
Concrete Angel by Martina McBride makes me cry every time. It is even worse when watching the video. It is just so sad because you really feel the lonieless and desolation that people go through. And I hate that things like children dying happen because people are too afraid to stand up and say, hey something is not right here. She walks to school with the lunch she packed Nobody knows what she's holdin' back Wearin' the same dress she wore yesterday She hides the bruises with linen and lace The teacher wonders but she doesn't ask It's hard to see the pain behind the mask Bearing the burden of a secret storm Sometimes she wishes she was never born Through the wind and the rain She stands hard as a stone In a world that she can't rise above But her dreams give her wings And she flies to a place where she's loved Concrete angel Somebody cries in the middle of the night The neighbors hear, but they turn out the lights A fragile soul caught in the hands of fate When morning comes it'll be too late [Repeat Chorus] A statue stands in a shaded place An angel girl with an upturned face A name is written on a polished rock A broken heart that the world forgot [Repeat Chorus] [sunnypub]
I absolutely LOVE that song. Another song that makes me cry is Sara Beth by Rascall Flatts. Sara Beth is scared to death To hear what the doctor will say She hasn't been well Since the day that she fell And the bruise that just won't go away So she sits and she waits with her mother and dad Flips through an old magazine Till a nurse with a smile stands at the door And says will you please come with me Sara Beth is scared to death Cause the doctor just told her the news Between the red cells and white Somethings not right But we're gonna take care of you Six chances in ten it won't come back again With the therapy we're gonna try It's just been approved It's the strongest there is I think we caught it in time Sara Beth closes her eyes She dreams she's dancing Around and around without any cares And her very first love is holding her close And the soft wind is blowing her hair Sara Beth is scared to death As she sits holding her mom Says it would be a mistake For someone to take A girl with no hair to the prom Oh, just this morning right there on her pillow Was the cruelest of any surprise And she cried when she gathered it all in her hands The proof that she couldn't deny Sara Beth closes her eyes She dreams she's dancing Around and around without any cares And her very first love is holding her close And the soft wind is blowing her hair It's a quarter to seven That boys at the door Her daddy ushers him in And when he takes off his cap They all start to cry Cause this morning where his had been Softly she touches just skin They go dancing Around and around without any cares And her very first love is holding her close And for a moment she isn't scared. Yep, that one gets me every time. Does anyone have a tissue? [dlkuku]
There are many songs that bring tears to my eyes...most of all those connected with my Love because we used to send each other our favourite songs in a time when everything was perfect and now that things are looking a bit messy for us it is hard to listen to those songs and not to cry thinking about how beautiful it used to be... One that gets me in particular is "The special two" by Missy Higgins...and pretty much any song from the musical Rent... [valyushah]
Caramel - Blur No Distance Left to Run - Blur Battery in Your Leg - Blur Burger Queen - Placebo True Love Waits - Radiohead You Never Wash Up After Yourself - Radiohead No Surprises - Radiohead Fairytale of New York - The Pogues feat.

my heart will go on is the song for me by celine dion,it moves me to tars. [aissha]
"Sandese ate hai,chitthi ati hai,ke ghar kab aaoge? likho kab aaoge?" This is my very favorite Hindi song.This is sung by a soldiers at the border who are long long away from their home and family.They are engaged with the security of nation and doing their duty with full involvement.They love the nation but at the same time during night time at the rest moments-remind their dear ones.wait eagerly for their letters,eager to hear their voice and become emotional and this song comes out........... and brings tears to my eyes. [ashokpethkar]
Everybody hurts by R.E.M. R.E.M (Automatic For The People) When your day is long and the night, The night is yours alone, When you're sure you've had enough With this life, Well hang on Don't let yourself go, 'Couse everybody cries And everybody hurts sometimes Sometimes everything is wrong Now it's time to sing along When your days is night alone, If you feel like letting go, When you think you've had too much Of this life, Well hang on Everybody hurts Take comfort in your friends Everybody hurts Don't throw your hand Oh, no Don't throw your hand If you feel like you're alone, No, no, no, you are not alone If you're on your own in this life, The days and nights are long, When you think you've had too much Of this life to hang on Well, everybody hurts, Sometimes everybody cries And everybody hurts sometimes And everybody hurts sometimes So, hold on, hold on, hold on... (Everybody hurts... You are not alone) [mobyfriend]
Love this song.. it is one of a handful of songs that got me through a time in my life when I thought I just wanted to crawl into a hole and die. Thanks for listing it! [HeavenUnaware]
I was rather thinking of songs that are extremely nauseus to me and therefore bring tears, such as Two Little Boys by Rolf Harris. [islander7]
Tell Laura I Love Her by Ray Peterson. it's about undying love...users.cis.net/sammy/laura.htm [juliefaye]
One of the song what bring tears to my eyes when i listen is, Elton Jhon's Sorry seems to be the hardest word, because when you do something wrong to the person whom you love a lot and later you realise your mistakes then you go ahead and say sorry... but in reality it's easy to say sorry but it's very difficult to express your expressions you are suffering from..... [iktishaf]
the songs of england dan and johh ford coley moved my heart and sometimes really made me cry, especially that song, JUST TELL ME YOU LOVE ME. I can't forget that song because thru that song my partner gave her "yes" to marry me. wonderful moments to recall everytime i hear that song. [ryanphil01]
all sentimental songs...makes me cry...i dont know,,,so that i dont want to listen that kind of music.... [inovator]
for me,its the song by mariah carey...its called "can't take that away",its a very nice and touching song,,,when i listen to it,i felt like crying...and i dont know why,i just felt it, i can relate to the song very easily..!! [shane_07]
Well for me it is Eric Clapton's Tears in Heaven. When I was about 16 my grandmother had a heart attack. It was her 3rd and sadly it killed her. When my mom and I decided to go home from the hospital to get a shower and clean clothes we received a phone call that every one decided not to keep her on life support any more. As soon as we got in the car to go back to the hospital Tears in Heaven came on and we knew it was her way of saying good bye. Just telling this story and remembering the events brings tears to my eyes. [magikrose]
There are many songs that bring tears to my eyes...most of all those connected with my Love because we used to send each other our favourite songs in a time when everything was perfect and now that things are looking a bit messy for us it is hard to listen to those songs and not to cry thinking about how beautiful it used to be... [bhs1980]
There are lots of songs that bring tears to my eyes... Especially if they are connected with some memories or people. One of them is "If I fell" by Beatles. When I hear it I remember myself being a 16 year old girl, when we were watching the Hard Day's Night movie for the first time. I just see Lennon's face in front of me and remember a lump in my throat and tears coming to my eyes... If I gave my heart to you I must be sure from the very start That you would love me more than her... [JuliaPan]
"viva forever" by spice girls bring tears to my eyes everytime i hear it because that's the time during my high school days and that is the famous song when me and my ex broke-up! he is my first boyfriend and i don't know why everytime i hear that song makes me remember the hurt that i felt seven years ago!! [ehdzzie]
Well I have several that always bring tears to my eyes. Some are older but they are still great and no matter what make me emotional. These are country music but I hope you'll like them: By Red Sovine: Teddy Bear, Roses For Mamma, Phanom 309 It wasn't His Child by Trisha Yearwood When The World Stopped Turning by Alan Jackson Austin by Blake Sheldon Some Gave All by Billy Ray Cyrus God Bless The USA by Lee Greenwood At The Sound of the Tone by John Schnieder Christmas Shoes: Not sure who sings it but it's a beautiful song. I hope these help :) I know I enjoy them all the time so hope you will too. [emeraldisle]
Well, The Anthem by Good Charlotte, makes me cry. My cousin lives with a horrible mother, and she controlled his life, to him school was a prison. So yeah the song made me think about him, and it made me very sad. =( [BreeLee]
i never heard any songs which bring the tears in my eyes but i know i don't know every song may be for this happened to me. [usama46]
Hi,i advice you live your favorite brother as he was,do not let his absence,i mean don't be concerned about his absence. As well known man is a subject of pity and not to blame. He did not make himself,he is weakness and nature is strong.He tried to work his own way,i really do not know what made your brother made that kind of decision. But i know there are infinite number according to the nature that made your bro, made that decision.Let me give an example in order to be more explicit to you.We are like a watch,no more we can do than like as well as the watch.Nature command us to follow the line without to dodge from it. But i conclude that,let Jesus be your friend.open the door to him,do not harden your heart when you hear his voice.Draw near to God,and God will draw near to you. Yours, Servant Jacob! [jacobn1980]
the song that brings to my eyes i cannot quite remember the correct tittle, it seems the tittle is "TIME" with some lyrics that goes like this..Time is flowing like a river, Time beckoning me, who knows when we shall met again, if ever, and time is flowing like a river to the sea, goodbye my love maybe for forever, goodbye my friend the time waits for me.. thats song that brings tears to my eyes. well if anybody knows the real tittle i will be glad to know and also the singer so i can buy one. [finethings101265]
Rascal Flatts - What Hurts the most. It relates not only to those who've lost someone they love because they've passed on, but also when a relationship ends and stuff. It's a song that upsets me since when I hear it all I can seem to think about is when I was really truly in love with someone, and they threw it away just in a heartbeat because he saw some girl he wanted to f#$k. So anyways, yeah. [xxxdeadlyangel]
One song that I recently discovered that brings me to tears is: Picture, with Kid rock feat Sheryl Crow.. I think it is a sad song.. Also, All by myself - celine dion Still got the blues - Gary Moore (old memories with bf) The rose with Bette Midler - coz that was played on my grandmothers funeral.... and many many more! [Marie2473]
Its so hard to get over a relative that close. I have lost my parents now and I really miss them. A song that really touches the core of my heart and always brings tears to my eyes is a bollywood number by singer Jagjit Singh: The lyrics are very touching, they are: No letter , No message that world is totally unknown for where you have departed to, you have hurt my heart by going this way where have you gone you must have heaved a sigh which we didn't hear while going away you must have called out for us too Now we are always sad to think why we were not there with you when you left forever Everything around us tearfully reminds us of you this path,this home, this street could not say good bye to you for the last time Now our heart pains to think that why you left in such a hurry for the final abode Now your memories bring pain to our heart the pain of this untimely sepration is unbearable and outr tears do not stop falling Mylove searches for you and to whom now I would say that "I love you" where have you gone to that unknown world leaving this pain in my heart why have you gone. Its such a nioce song, I have not done full justice in translation but in hindi you can read it here http://www.hindilyrix.com/songs/get_song_Chithhi%20na%20koyi%20sandesh.html the lines that touch me most are you must have sighed and you must have called out for us but we were not there with you on that moment. imagine someone dying without their loved ones around them. The pain that leaves behind. [mansha]
There are a couple but one that comes to mind is Tears in Heaven by Eric Clapton. He created the song after his son fell to his death as a toddler from an open window many stories high. It changed his entire world and to listen to the song just makes it even more intense. [hockeygal4ever]
A lot of songs do that to me, like Elton John's 'Sorry seems to be the hardest word', 'Nikita' and 'Sacrifice', Tom Petty's 'Mary Jane's Last Dance', Boyzone's 'Baby Can I Hold You Tonight' but the song that actually defines regret for me is Mike and The Mechanics 'In the living years' The lyrics to it are: The Living Years Every generation Blames the one before And all of their frustrations Come beating on your door I know that I'm a prisoner To all my Father held so dear I know that I'm a hostage To all his hopes and fears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Crumpled bits of paper Filled with imperfect thought Stilted conversations I'm afraid that's all we've got You say you just don't see it He says it's perfect sense You just can't get agreement In this present tense We all talk a different language Talking in defence Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye So we open up a quarrel Between the present and the past We only sacrifice the future It's the bitterness that lasts So Don't yield to the fortunes You sometimes see as fate It may have a new perspective On a different day And if you don't give up, and don't give in You may just be O.K. Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye I wasn't there that morning When my Father passed away I didn't get to tell him All the things I had to say I think I caught his spirit Later that same year I'm sure I heard his echo In my baby's new born tears I just wish I could have told him in the living years Say it loud, say it clear You can listen as well as you hear It's too late when we die To admit we don't see eye to eye And Shania Twain's 'You're Still The One', brings tears of happiness :) [gbala9]
most of old hindi songs are like that they take very easy tears in any eyes . [nikki05]
The song that made me cry was Elton John's new version of Candle In the Wind he sang for Princess Diana's funeral. It decribed her perfectly. [sarahruthbeth22]
One of my favourites is Kenny Chesney's "Who'd you be today", A close friend of mine died almost 20 yrs ago now, when he was only 19. Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. I feel you everywhere I go. I see your smile, I see your face, I hear you laughing in the rain. Still can't believe your gone. It ain't fair: you died too young, like the story that had just begun, but death tore the pages all away. God knows how I miss you, all the hell that I've been through, just knowing no one could take your place. An sometimes I wonder, who'd you be today. Would you see the world? Would you chase your dreams? Settle down with a family, I wonder what would you name your babies? Someday the skies so blue, I feel like I can talk to you, an I know it might sound crazy. It ain't fair you died to young, like the story that had just begun, but death stole the pages all away. God knows how much I miss you, all the hell that I've been through, just knowing no one could take your place. An sometimes I wonder, who'd you be today? Today, today, today today, today, today. Instrumental Break Sunny days seem to hurt the most. I wear the pain like a heavy coat. The only thing that gives me hope, is I know I'll see you again someday. Someday, someday, someday. (Fade out) [red158]

Yes I know the song "Moments" well. It is sung by Emerson Drive. Very good song! The one song that I will cry to everytime I hear it is "I Loved Her First" by Heartland. The very first time I ever heard the song I thought of my wedding day when my father gave me away. The song is so true to my heart. Here are the lyrics: Look at the two of you dancing that way Lost in the moment of each others face So much in love your alone in this place Like there's nobody else in the world I was enough for her not long ago I was her number one She told me so And she still means the world to me Just so you know So be careful when you hold my girl Time changes everything Life must go on And I'm not gonna stand in your way But I loved her first and I held her first And a place in my heart will always be hers From the first breath she breathed When she first smiled at me I knew the love of a father runs deep And I prayed that she'd find you someday But it still hard to give her away I loved her first How could that beautiful women with you Be the same freckle face kid that I knew The one that I read all those fairy tales to And tucked into bed all those nights And I knew the first time I saw you with her It was only a matter of time But I loved her first and I held her first And a place in my heart will always be hers From the first breath she breathed When she first smiled at me I knew the love of a father runs deep And I prayed that she'd find you someday But its still hard to give her away I loved her first From the first breath she breathed When she first smiled at me I knew the love of a father runs deep Someday you might know what I'm going through When a miracle smiles up at you I loved her first [speedy1279]
Thank you for the best response! That is a good idea to write things down and I hope that you are able to live long enough for your son. God Bless!!!! [speedy1279]
"Concrete Angel" by (I think) Martina McBride. Especially if I watch the video. It makes me so sad and I cry. I can't really relate to it all that much, I guess, but it's still extremely sad for me. [taymouse]
This is probably not one you hear every day, but Footprints by ToK. My best friend killed himself our junior year in high school, and at his wake his parents had the cards with his picture made, and on the back they had the Footprints story, like the one relating to Jesus. Well everytime I listne to ToK's version it brings tears to my eyes. I love the song. It is true I miss my friend, but when I hear the song it makes me think of him and I don't know it just makes me remember all the good times. Another one that makes me cry is Five for Fighting's 100 years. I made a slideshow for my grandma's 80th birthday party and I put all very old pictures on there and it came out so well. The lyrics in the song are just amazing and I love how it relates so closely to life. I would also have to agree that country songs are the ones that make you cry the most. I mean for some odd reason, I get teary eyed listening to "what hurts the most" by Rascall Flatts. I really don't relate to it on a personal level, it just is one of those things I guess. [mfmenchi]
There are a few that are guaranteed tear jerkers for me. One of my earliest ones was I'll be True to You by the Oakridge Boys. Maybe it was just an emotional time for me at 16, but this song has brought tears to my eyes every time I've heard it since. Another is Because You Loved Me as sung by Celine Dion. I still have a hard time listening to this one, since it came out just before my dad died and was on the radio all the time. My dad was 6'5" and was always picking us up so we could reach something, so it was a song that we decided to include in his funeral music. You'll see the reference and many others when you see the lyrics I'm pasting in for your crying pleasure, but I'm not going to look or I'll start bawling even after almost 10 years. ;) Lyrics: For all those times you stood by me For all the truth that you made me see For all the joy you brought to my life For all the wrong that you made right For every dream you made come true For all the love I found in you I'll be forever thankful baby You're the one who held me up Never let me fall You're the one who saw me through through it all You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'cause you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me You gave me wings and made me fly You touched my hand I could touch the sky I lost my faith, you gave it back to me You said no star was out of reach You stood by me and I stood tall I had your love I had it all I'm grateful for each day you gave me Maybe I don't know that much But I know this much is true I was blessed because I was loved by you You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'cause you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me You were always there for me The tender wind that carried me A light in the dark shining your love into my life You've been my inspiration Through the lies you were the truth My world is a better place because of you You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'cause you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me You were my strength when I was weak You were my voice when I couldn't speak You were my eyes when I couldn't see You saw the best there was in me Lifted me up when I couldn't reach You gave me faith 'cause you believed I'm everything I am Because you loved me I'm everything I am Because you loved me [paidreader]
Because you loved me is mine and my fathers song. It has been since the song first came out. It is a beautiful song! [speedy1279]
There are a lot of songs that brings me to tears, but what really makes me cry, is the song, Make Me Whole by Amel Larrieux, Broken Vow by Lara Fabian and When I Saw You by Mariah Carey. It makes me cry because of the lyrics and the melody of the song. I intentionally download songs like these whenever i feel like crying. Well, it's advisable to cry sometimes.. :) These are very nice songs.. [kring_m]
The song that always makes me tear up is "Proud to be an American" by Lee Greenwood. Everytime it comes on, I pretty much sitting there, usually in the car, bawling my eyes out. Quite embarassing. But what can I say, I'm patriotic. [beernpickles]
Some ones that bring tears to my eyes usually makes me remember my loved one in the Philippines and most of them are in Tagalog. Or a classic "Nobody Knows It But Me". [bluemestizo]
In Indian music we have plenty of songs. for me, the song "naa cheli rojave" in the film "Roja" brings tears from inside of the heart its composed by the music maestro A R Rahman.... its sung by a husband who is kidnapped by the pakistani terrorists. he cries his heart out for his wife who is struggling to release him. the songs has an excellent back drop of the terrorist camps and beauties of jammu and kashmir, most beautiful place in India [manish243236]
Biggest Part of Me by Brian Mcknight.. i really love that songs... and Art of Letting Go by Mikaila.. really senti songs. [jlo228]
A lot of songs makes me cry/bring tears to my eyes.Maybe its because im too emotional.I have a lot of bad past broken dreams and heart.Sometimes,when i heared a love songs,i dont even noticed that my tears is falling down my cheeks.But i feel the pain inside of me.It makes me remember those memories that still linger on my mind.No matter how i tried to hold on my feelings,but its really hard to keep it.Its good too to express on crying while listening to love songs,because it also healed our pains. [Gwapako_28]
"Some where over the Rainbow" comes to mind. I love Judy Garland's rendition (of course she made it famous). Katherine McPhee did a wonderful job with it on "American Idol" last year. Several years ago I heard a guy sing it on the radio. His song brought tears to my eyes. Does anyone know who the singer is? I would love to hear his version of it again! [bamabride]
I wasnt an emotinal person... since then.. But when My father died... (considering im a daddy's girl...) I found myself crying when I hear songs which for the one's you misses much... even if its for two lovers... still I cry because sometimes my mind replace the "Lovers thingy" into my father's thoughts... sometimes i dont intend to cry but then when I hear a very solemn voice or melody.. My tear drops.. because I feel the loneliness.. I became a whining baby now because I really really do missed my daddy a lot!! There's nothing to do with the song... But Yes.. Sad songs make me cry!!! -=-Rein-=- [angelzdr8]
"Footprints in the Sand". The lyrics goes that a man is walking along the beach with the Lord Jesus. As they walked, there's flash in the sky scenes of the man's life. The man noticed that there are 2 sets of footprints in the sand in every happy moments of his life's scenes. But, in his saddest and lowest moments of his life's scene, there is only 1 set of footprints in the sand. So, he asked the Lord about these, why when I needed you the most you left me? The Lord answered, my son, I love you and I would never leave you, during the saddest and lowest moments of your life when you can only see 1 set of footprints in the sand, it was then that I carried you. This last part of the lyrics, my tears just drops down. [guardiangel]
How can I answer this heaven, lol? I cry at advertisments and during soap operas on TV. I'm such an old sentimental softie. I'd rather be like I am than be hard and unfeeling. [MsTickle]
I just read SOME of the lyrics to tyhis song and started crying!!!! It is the one song that IMMEDIATELY brings me to tears-I can't listen to it unless I feel like crying.... Don't Take the Girl -Tim McGraw Johnny's Daddy was taking him fishing When he was eight years old A little girl came through the front gate holdin a Fishing pole His dad looked down and smiled, said we cant leave her behind Son I know you dont want her to go but someday you'll change your mind And Johnny said take Jimmy Johnson, take Tommy Thompson, take my best friend Bo Take anybody that you want as long as she dont go Take any boy in the world Daddy please dont take the girl Same old boy Same sweet girl Ten years down the road He held her tight and kissed her lips In front of the picture show Stranger came and pulled a gun Grabbed her by the arm said if you do what I tell you to, there wont be any harm And johnny said take my money, take my wallet, take my credit cards Heres the watch that my grandpa gave me Heres the key to my car Mister give it a whirl But please dont take the girl Same old boy Same sweet girl Five years down the road Theres going to be a little one and she says its time to go Doctor says the babys fine but you'll have to leave cause his mommas fading fast and Johnny hit his knees and there he prayed Take the very breath you gave me Take the heart from my chest I'll gladly take her place if you'll let me Make this my last request Take me out of this world God, please dont take the girl Johnny's daddy Was taking him fishing When he was eight years old [Backpack30]
I am very sorry to hear that about your brother. I can't imagine..... I pray you find him one day soon so you can tell him everything you want him to know. [Backpack30]
"Turn the Page" by Bob Seger and the Silver Bullet Band. For those that don't know the song, it is about a motorcycle rider. I cry because it was my husbands favorite song and he was killed on a motorcycle. Another that makes me cry is "Go Rest High On That Mountain" by Vince Gill. They played it at a friends funeral that committed suicide and I think of him every time I hear it. Brings tears to my eyes to even think about it. [ldybgsgma99]
I'm so sorry about your brother.. The song that always makes me so sad is 'I Will Remember You" by Amy Grant it was playing on the radio the night my Grandma passed away.. She was in a comma and her eyes were open and she looked right at me as if to say goodbye.. [CookieWookie]
Eric Clapton´s "Would You Know Me In Heaven?" never fails to make me cry. He wrote it after his 2 year old son fell out of a window and died. It was always a sad song, but now that I have a son, it just brings chills to my spine, thinking about how someone could possibly cope with such a tragedy. [GuateMom]
