Eliz87 | Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 11:20 am     Oh here's another one... "Have You Even Been In Love" by Celine Dion. I first heard this on the car commercial with Celine Dion in it. You can hear her singing this in the background as the camera focuses on her smiling at her son. I have a one-year-old son and, to me, this reference is just SO beautiful, because he IS the love of my life! I heard it this morning and the tears just kept coming! Happy tears! :-) (Yes, I know...I've been so manipulated by the media...) |
Sweetbabygirl | Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 11:44 am     Awwwwwwwww, Eliz....that's beautiful! I have a few songs like that, where the words are so pure and emotional that you automatically tear up. Endless Love, Brian McKnight's Love Of My Life, Des'ree's Kissing You and Have You Ever Really Loved A Woman by Bryan Adams immediately come to mind. |
Alakaren | Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 02:32 pm     Don't take the girl by Tim McGraw always makes me cry. |
Reader234 | Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 08:38 pm     Tears From Heaven, for reasons stated above... Amazing Grace (basically because it is always played at funerals, and the Scottish bagpipes play it so sweetly...) There is another song about a mom who dies, and is watching her daughter thru the floor of Heaven, hear that every now and again... Reba McIntyre wrote a song for her band members that died... "If I'd only known" that'n really gets to me as a close friend died the same day... and he was a theatre person in Chicago, so I also cry when I hear Phantom of the Opera, "Wishing you were somehow Here with me..." and last week while surfing the radio I heard a song (country ok?!!) about a mom in a hospital whose child was dying, and she asked God not to take him just yet, something about isnt there enough Angels in Heaven.... I couldnt believe it, how could you NOT cry???!!! Sentimental fool, that is meed - Holes in the floor of Heaven... lyrics page - http://members.aol.com/blueyedtom/lyrics/holesinthefloor.html |
Reader234 | Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 09:02 pm     I found the song i mentioned above - - Streets of Heaven.. http://www.cowboylyrics.com/forum/messages/431.html about a mom's prayer while her child is in a hospital room Hello God, it's me again. 2:00 a.m., Room 304. Visiting hours are over, time for our bedside tug of war. This sleeping child between us may not make it through the night. I'm fighting back the tears as she fights for her life. Well, it must be kind of crowded, On the streets of Heaven. So tell me: what do you need her for? Don't you know one day she'll be your little girl forever. But right now I need her so much more. She's much too young to be on her own: Barely just turned seven. So who will hold her hand when she crosses the streets of Heaven? Its kinda hard to hear, maybe its just me, and my life's experiences!! |
Reader234 | Sunday, July 20, 2003 - 09:25 pm     Ok fine, in BB thread this was posted: Woodpecke® Saturday, July 19, 2003 - 10:10 pm -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- You could sing "Honey" by Bobby Goldsboro; it would make her cry and make her feel all close to you and stuff. I just cant seem to stop... Here's Reba's song: If I had only known It was the last walk in the rain I'd keep you out for hours in the storm I would hold your hand Like a life line to my heart Underneath the thunder we'd be warm If I had only known It was our last walk in the rain If I had only known I'd never hear your voice again I'd memorize each thing you ever said And on those lonely nights I could think of them once more Keep your words alive inside my head If I had only known I'd never hear your voice again You were the treasure in my hand You were the one who always stood beside me So unaware I foolishly believed That you would always be there But then there came a day And I turned my head and you slipped away If I had only known It was my last night by your side I'd pray a miracle would stop the dawn And when you'd smile at me I would look into your eyes And make sure you know my love For you goes on and on If I had only known If I had only known The love I would've shown If I had only known |
Sweetbabygirl | Wednesday, July 23, 2003 - 10:33 am     Call me a pansy, but I just heard I've Got You Under My Skin by the Four Seasons and I'm all teary-eyed.....the music just sounds so depressing. Actually, I remember sniffling at Candy Girl, too. |
Jed245 | Wednesday, August 27, 2003 - 07:32 am     ***Disclaimer*** Men don't cry so this is kinda a pointless post. However, if I were capable of tears these would be the songs that would cause them.... How Can I Help You Say Goodbye- Patti Loveless Can't remember many words so no quotes :o) Lost a good friend around the time after this song came out. Will you remember me - Sarah Mclauglan This song always makes me think of will I be missed, and will they know how much I'll miss them kinda thoughts. :o) Quotes ... the only line that sticks anyway "will you remember me. I will remember you." Seasons in the sun - Terry Jacks Kinda chokes me up cause at the time I first heard the song I was told that they guy was singing it beause he knew he was dying of cancer. I think later that turned out to be a scam. Quotes " goodbye my friend it's hard to die while all the birds are singing in the sky." " goodbye papa please pray for me. I was the black sheep of the family." First time ever I saw your face - Roberta Flack Very sentimental to me. Quotes" First time ever I saw your face. I thought the sun rose in your eyes..." "the first time ever I kissed your lips I felt the earth move in my hand." Green Green grass of home - Charlie Pride This son was played a funeral for one of my 11 uncles. One of the only four I had ever met. We had a few family members get up with instruments in hand and play this (we're in kentucky folks) It was done very beautifully and anytime I hear it I can hardly contain myself. Forever- Queen Great song about not being able to be with someone long enough. (to me anyway) quotes... " there's no time for us. There's no place for us. What is this thing that builds our dreams yet slips away from us. Who wants to live forever..... " "There's no chance for us. It's all decided for us. This world has only one sweet moment set aside for us." "Who dares to love forever .... oh when love must die." "touch my tears with your lips. Touch my warmth with your finger tips. And we can have forever." |
Squaredsc | Wednesday, August 27, 2003 - 07:36 am     im loving that last lyric jed. and i have another song. this one was sung at my grandmothers funeral and it now gets me everytime, "Oh Precious Lord Take My Hand". |
Twinkie | Wednesday, August 27, 2003 - 08:28 am     The theme music for A Wedding Story on TLC. I don't know who sings it or the name of it but part of the words are: I will have your hand to see me thru...the years may come and go but there's one thing I know...love is all there is when I'm with you. Also, Level 42: My Father's Shoes Sarah McLachlan: In the Arms of the Angels Another song that brings me to tear is: Find One Hundred Ways. Not sure if its by Peabo Bryson or James Ingram. |
Mack | Wednesday, August 27, 2003 - 09:37 am     "To Where You Are" by Josh Groban and "Only Time" by Enya. Both songs remind my wife and I of our friends lost in the September 11 attack on the Pentagon. On a lighter note I like "Lady in Red" by Chris de Burgh because it reminds me of the first time I saw my DW. I get a bit mushie when I hear it. |
Willsmom | Thursday, August 28, 2003 - 07:57 pm     "Home Free" by Wayne Watson. He wrote it about a young mother who was a family friend dying of cancer. It was at the same time my aunt was dying of cancer and they lived in the same town. "Out in the corridors they pray for a life A mother for her baby A husband for his wife Oh sometimes the good die young it's sad , but true But as we pray for one more heartbeat the real comfort is in you Home Free eventually at the ultimate healing we will be home free Home Free Oh I've got a feeling At the ultimate healing we will be home free" |

Sasman | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 10:09 am     I Can't Make You Love Me - Bonnie Raitt Turn down the lights, turn down the bed Turn down these voices inside my head Lay down with me, tell me no lies Just hold me close, don't patronize - don't patronize me CHORUS: Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these lonely hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't I'll close my eyes, then I won't see The love you don't feel when you're holding me Morning will come and I'll do what's right Just give me till then to give up this fight And I will give up this fight CHORUS: Cause I can't make you love me if you don't You can't make your heart feel something it won't Here in the dark, in these lonely hours I will lay down my heart and I'll feel the power But you won't, no you won't 'Cause I can't make you love me, if you don't |
Sweetbabygirl | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 10:11 am     Oh, Sas....this song was out (1993 or 1994) when I broke up with my last boyfriend. Dang, that was the worst year of my life. |
Sweetbabygirl | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 10:12 am     Especially the 2nd verse....damn. |
Sasman | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 11:08 am     actually it was out a few years before that when my x & i broke up.... that song made me so sad that i just gave the cd away... i got it again a few years ago though. |
Sweetbabygirl | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 11:16 am     Funny you mention that, 'cause now I can sing the song throughout....used to be that I could never finish, I'd be a weepin' mess. Same thing went for Brian McKnight's One Last Cry (although I admit to still getting sad at hearing this one...I just don't cry like I used to). |
Denecee | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 11:18 am     Almost all the songs mentioned above bring tears to my eyes. Right now I just want to go to my bedroom and listen to all of them and just cry my heart out. With the loss of my nephew, a good friend's son being in a bad car accident and my son going off to basic training in a month, I am so in need of another good cry. |

Sasman | Friday, August 29, 2003 - 11:21 am     here it is sbg just for you.... My shattered dreams and broken heart Are mending on the shelf I saw you holding hands Standing close to someone else Now I sit all alone Wishing all my feelings was gone I gave my best to you Nothing for me to do But have one last cry [Chorus:] One last cry Before I leave it all behind I gotta put you out of my mind this time Stop living a lie I guess I'm down to my last cry Cry..... I was here You were there Guess we never could agree While the sun shines on you I need some love to rain on me Still I sit all alone Wishing all my feelings was gone Gotta get over you Nothing for me to do But have one last cry [Chorus:] One last cry Before I leave it all behind I gotta put you out of my mind For the very last time Been living a lie I guess I'm down, I guess I'm down I guess I'm down... I guess I'm down... To my last cry...
