| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/12/2007 9:06:49 AM | I cry when I hear this one:
Tammy Graham- A Dozen Red Roses
A dozen red roses And a simple bouquet Arrived at the church On her wedding day
The bridesmaides gather 'round her Last details done But a dozen red roses Who could they be from
The moment was close now The church filled with light She stood like a picture In a glow of white. All her friends awaiting The music softly playing Yet, she reached for the roses On the table where they lay.
Then from the roses She picked up an envelope Her hand was guided by her heart And for every rose A single teardrop fell As she lifted her veil and slowly read the card:
"You're in your room sleeping As I write these words I know you won't read them till years from now"
"God will call me home soon I'll miss you're wedding day, So your mom will keep This note to send With a rose bouquet"
"So take one of these roses To hold in your hand And I'll be beside you,
As Always, Love Dad"
And my all time tear jerker of a song:
vince Gill- Go Rest High on That Mountain
I know your life On earth was troubled And only you could know the pain You weren't afraid to face the devil You were no stranger to the rain
Go rest high on that mountain Son, you work on earth is done Go to heaven a shoutin' Love for the Father and Son
Oh, how we cried the day you left us We gathered round your grave to grieve I wish I could see the angels faces When they hear your sweet voice sing
Go rest high on that mountain Son, you work on earth is done Go to heaven a shoutin' Love for the Father and Son

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/12/2007 10:33:20 AM | There are two songs that come to mind that always make me cry. Both were written and recorded by George Canyon. "My Name" was written for friends of his who were expecting a baby but late in the pregnancy, she lost the baby. It's sad but also very beautiful. The other song "I Want You to Live" was written to the families of the Canadian soldiers who have been killed in Afghanistan. The video of this one is posted at http://www.georgecanyon.com/video.html
Both songs make me cry every time I listen to them. | |

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/12/2007 11:46:18 AM | | 'Don't Let the Sun Catch You Crying', by Gerry and the Pacemakers. It always makes me sad. And the one about his little boy dying, I think its called, "Tears In Heaven", by Eric Clapton. | |

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/12/2007 12:03:27 PM | Elvis Presley Dont Cry Daddy
Today I stumbled from my bed With thunder crashing in my head My pillow still wet From last night tears And as I think of giving up A voice inside my coffee-cup Kept crying out Ringing in my ears
Don't cry daddy Daddy, please don't cry Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy Together we'll find a brand new mommy Daddy, daddy, please laugh again Daddy ride us on your back again Oh, daddy, please don't cry
Why are children always first To feel the pain and hurt the worst It's cruel, somehow It just don't seem right 'Cause ev'ry time I cry I know It hurts my little children so I wonder will it be the same tonight
Don't cry daddy Daddy, please don't cry Daddy, you've still got me and little Tommy Together we'll find a brand new mommy Daddy, daddy, please laugh again Daddy ride us on your back again Oh, daddy, please don't cry Oh, daddy, please don't cry | |

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/12/2007 12:39:55 PM | The Last Kiss by J. Frank Wilson and the Cavaliers or Pearl Jam.
Neil Yong has penned many a song with deep meaning and feeling. I dont think you can surpass his singing Imagine for the 9/11 telethon. The look in his eyes and on his face. You will be hard pressed to find someone who sang a song with more or sadness. I don't think anyone has ever sang a song with more feeling.
Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today...
Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace...
You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people Sharing all the world...
You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us And the world will live as one
Note to Dented Night. If your picking muscians from your hometown, why not Ian Thomas Painted Ladies. | |

Hard times are falling on you Even when you smile I see the hurt come through And I know it feels like its never gonna end You say nothings been right for a long time And every step you Take is qa uphill climb I see you reaching out so let me tell you friend that
Better days are coming around I know you feel like the whole world is gone and let you down but Better days they're comin for you I know they will 'Cause I'll be right there making sure they do
And if your sky aint looking the fairest There aint no reason to be embarrassed Aint nobody in the world that felt The rain from time to time And just when you think its all over and done The nights get easier one by one So take my hand and hold on tight And soon your gonna find that
Chorus Better days are comin' around I know you feel the the whole worlds gonna let you done Better days they're comin' for you I know they will cause i'll be right here makin sure they do
I know what its like to have to face the fight But I won't let you satnd alone
Repeat chorus
Oh better days I know, I know, I know The whole worlds gone and let you down Better days are coming for you I know they will | |

Thin Lizzy - Cowboy Song (a simple old time rocker for when you're feeling "lonesome on the trail")
Three Dog Night - One Is The Loniest Number (well it just is, tito pass me a tissue)
Twisted Sister - The Price (hair metal tears are from the same pain as everyone elses)
WASP -Sleeping In The Fire (hair metal tears again, but over a sleazier girl, haha...its a joke)
Grand Funk RR - Bad Time (almost 3 minutes of being reminded, constantly, its a bad time for being in love)
Foriegner - Cold As Ice (can you say ex-wife)
Sloan - The Rest of My Life (not sure if this belongs here, but the video would)
Kickaxe - Dreamin' About You (more 80's metal to put on a mixed tape after your girl dumps you)

Quiet Riot - Love's A **** (nuff said) | |

Thank you for the things you bought me thank you for the card Thank you for the things to taught me when you hit me hard That love between two people must be based on understanding Until that's true you'll find your things all stacked out on the landing Surprise surprise. Valentine's Day is over. | |

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/12/2007 8:41:25 PM | If any one here has watched the very last episode of Six Feet Under, the song they played at the end when Claire is driving away. It's called Breathe Me ,by Sia. It brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it..If your a fan of the show, you will know exactly what I'm talking about. | |

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/13/2007 7:53:18 AM | I think it's people's perception of how they see a song. How they link songs to feelings. For example the song 'There you'll be" by Faith Hill may be seen differently as I see it. For me, it was on the radio a lot when my father died, and on the way home from the funeral I said to my mom 'Mom..listen to the words of this song'....and it made her cry (which I felt terrible about)..and I listened to it time and time again and associated it with my father, and it gave me sadness....but also some happiness in a sense. But again, other people might perceive it as a goodbye love song...I saw it as him and my mom, and me in a sense and as him being the one soaring across the sky...
There You'll Be - Faith Hill
When I think back On these times And the dreams We left behind I'll be glad 'cause I was blessed to get To have you in my life When I look back On these days I'll look and see your face You are there for me
[CHORUS:] In my dreams I'll always see you soar Above the sky In my heart There always be a place For you for all my life I'll keep a part Of you with me And everywhere I am There you'll be
Well you showed me How it feels To feel the sky Within my reach And I always Will remember all The strength you Gave to me Your love made me Make it through Oh, I owe so much to you You were right there for me
[Repeat chorus]
'Cause I always saw in you My light, my strength And I want to thank you Now for all the ways You were right there for me You were right there for me For always
[Repeat chorus] | |

| Saddest song ever! Posted: 2/13/2007 7:58:47 AM | "She's Gone" Black Sabbath
I've been gone a long long time - waiting for you I din't want to see you go, oh, no, no And now it's hurting so much, what can I do? I wanted you to be my wife
The days are passing slowly, since you've gone Your memories are all I have, yes I have I sit here waiting but you'll never show Without you I can't carry on, ooh my baby
You said you'd always love me, all of my life And then you said your last goodbye, yeah, goodbye Why the sudden change, why all the lies? I should have seen it in your eyes
The endless hours of heartache, waiting for you My summer love has turned to rain, all the pain The silent emptiness of one sided love My life means nothing now you're gone, ooh my baby | |
