CalliopePurple -> Songs That Make You Cry (8/23/2005 4:56:14 AM)
How many songs have the ability to make you cry, depending on the mood you're in? There are too many to mention for me, so I'm just gonna post the lyrics to the two my Winamp decided to play moments ago. Their subject matter, given recent events in my life, is rather fitting. I was walking home from school on a cold winter's day Took a shortcut through the woods and I lost my way It was getting late and I was scared and alone Then a kind old man took my hand and led me home Mama couldn't see him, but he was standing there But I knew in my heart, he was the answer to my prayers Oh I believe there are angels among us Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours To show us how to live To teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love When life dealt troubled times and had me down on my knees There's always been someone to come along and comfort me A kind word from a stranger to lend a helping hand A phone call from a friend just to say I understand Ain't it kind of funny at the dark end of the road Someone lights the way with just a single ray of hope Oh I believe there are angels among us Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours To show us how to live To teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love They wear so many faces Show up in the strangest places Grace us with thier mercy In our time of need Oh I believe there are angels among us Sent down to us from somewhere up above They come to you and me in our darkest hours To show us how to live To teach us how to give To guide us with a light of love ~ Alabama - Angels Among Us One hand Reaches out And pulls a lost soul from harm While a thousand more go unspoken for They say what good have you done By saving just this one It's like whispering a prayer In the fury of a storm And I hear them saying you'll never change things And no matter what you do it's still the same thing But it's not the world that I am changing I do this so this world will know That it will not change me This heart Still believes The love and mercy still exist While all the hatred rage and so many say That love is all but pointless in madness such as this It's like trying to stop a fire With the moisture from a kiss And I hear them saying you'll never change things And no matter what you do it's still the same thing But it's not the world that I am changing I do this so this world will know That it will not change me As long as one heart still holds on Then hope is never really gone I hear them saying you'll never change things And no matter what you do it's still the same thing But it's not the world that I am changing I do this so this world we know Never changes me What I do is so This world will know That it will not change me ~ Garth Brooks - The Change

Peter Gabriel's 'I Grieve'. I turned on the radio the day after my son died and it was playing. I haven't been able to listen to it since without crying, and it's been several years. It describes that numbness you feel after a death perfectly. It was only one hour ago It was all so different then Nothing yet has really sunk in Looks like it always did This flesh and bone is just the way that we are tied in But there's no one home I grieve...... for you You leave....... me So hard to move on Still loving what's gone They say life carries on Carries on and on and on and on The news that truly shocks is the empty, empty page While the final rattle rocks it's empty, empty cage and I can't handle this I grieve....... for you You leave....... me Let it out and move on Missing what's gone They say life carries on They say life carries on and on and on

After the mess with the boy from Seattle, there are two that I can't listen to One Thing by Eleven Finger (I think) And I can't remember the name of the other, but the part that always gets me is: I can't help you fix yourself but at least I can say I tried I'm sorry but I've got to get on with my own life

Anytime I'm in a mall or elevator and hear a Muzak version of a rock song I like.

Isolde -> RE: Songs That Make You Cry (8/23/2005 7:13:33 AM)
I believe that's 'Scars' by Papa Roach, SweetDommes. [:)] Edit: Beaten!

The Boxer, by Simon and Garfunkel. Not so much anymore, but sometimes. My Lady D'Arbanville, by Cat Stevens...always and forever...but I still have to listen. Bob

quote: ORIGINAL: junecleaver That's Scars by Papa Roach. Thanks, I thought that's the band, but didn't want to attribute it to the wrong group by mistake and I couldn't for the life of me remember the title ... I might be getting better about that song now though. When I was out the other night with a guy from work (not the one from before, for those who remember that story) that song came on while we were sitting in his car. He asked me what was wrong, I told him I cry every time I hear that song, so he turned it off and held me for a bit. It was really sweet.

Gah, "Scars" makes me think about my ex-pet because of the same lines that you quoted. Pretty much anything Led Zeppelin brings to mind my first girlfriend and I could rattle on forever about songs I have associated with people, but I'm sure that would bore everyone and I'm just a little too hyperactive for my own good at the moment.

Open Arms by Journey Go There with You by Steven Curtis Chapmen Tears in Heven by Clapton The musical Score to Last of the Mohicans The Chistmass Music by Mainheim Steam Roller Rob Thomas is one hell of a singer. His music along with Match Box 20 brings out many of my emotions and past experiences. "I will" and "Mad Season" especially Long December by the Counting Crows Where ever you go, Whatever you do, I'll always be right here waiting for you That country song "Dont Take the Girl" Everything I do I do it for you by Brian Adams Secret Ambition by Michale W Smith CC and BB Weinen the brother ans sister performers have made some great songs together over the years. Time in a Bottle by Jim Grossci Save the Best For Last by Vanessa Williams. These are just a few songs that have brought out tears and emotions from within me. Some of joy and some of sadness and depending on the moment which I am in. Some where just so good you coudn't help but feel the emotion comming from the performer or the music as I'm empathitic to peoples meanings.

"I'm already there" I flip the radio dial every time that song comes on because it always makes me cry.

quote: THE OTHER WOMAN The other woman finds time to manicure her nails The other woman is perfect where her rival fails And she's never seen with pin curls in her hair The other woman enchants her clothes with French perfume The other woman keeps fresh cut flowers in each room There are never toys that's scattered everywhere And when her baby comes to call He'll find her waiting like a lonesome queen Cos when she's by his side It's such a change from old routine But the other woman will always cry herself to sleep The other woman will never have his love to keep And as the years go by the other woman Will spend her life alone Written by Jesse Mae Robinson Sung by Nina Simone http://www.high-priestess.com/songs2.html quote: Walking After Midnight (remake) Donn Hecht, Alan Block Sung by Patsy Cline I go out walkin after midnight, Out in the moonlight, just like we used to do, I'm always walkin after midnight searchin for you ~ I walk for miles along the highway, Well, that's just my way of sayin "I love you," I'm always walkin after midnight searchin for you ~ I stop to see a weepin willow cryin on his pillow, Maybe he's cryin for me ~ And as the skies turn gloomy, night winds whisper to me, I'm lonesome as I can be... I go out walkin after midnight, Out in the moonlight, just hopin you may be Somewhere a-walkin after midnight searchin for me. I stop to see a weepin willow cryin on his pillow, Maybe he's cryin for me ~ And as the skies turn gloomy, night winds whisper to me, I'm lonesome as I can be...

"Forever Young" or "Landslide". But the one that never fails to break me down is "Every Breath You Take" by The Police. My Dad used to sing that to me when I was little to get me to fall asleep. Then, at my wedding a couple of months ago, I danced with him to that song. I was calm and collected until that moment. I broke down sobbing in my Daddy's arms like I was five again. And for one of the first times in my life, so did he. He whispered to me, "You'll always be my little girl." Now I can't even listen to the song. The sobbing starts instantly...in a good way, though.

Watermark by Enya. There aren't any lyrics, but for some reason, if I'm sitting quietly and it comes on that music puts me in a place that causes me to think about my deceased sister and I ball and have to turn it off. But I do love me some Enya. Also On My Way Home and Memory of trees and by Enya as well. Of course that song that comes on during the Christmas holidays, I can't think of the name, but I'm sure most know it. The one where the boy wants to buy shoes for his dying mother. ---------------------------------------- Thanks for starting this thread, now I'm feeling sad. [:(] Ahhhhhhh and then I hear "Don't Cry For Me Argentina"[:D] Rosa
