      "Alone Again, Naturally" by Gilbert O'Sullivan

      Song about being left at the altar and lonliness


      "In a little while from now
      If I'm not feeling any less sour
      I promised myself to treat myself
      And visit a nearby tower

      And climbing to the top
      Will throw myself off
      In an effort to make it clear to who
      Ever what it's like when you're shattered

      Left standing in the lurch, at a church
      Where people are saying
      My God that's tough, she stood him up
      No point in us remaining

      May as well go home
      As I did on my own
      Alone again, naturally

      To think that only yesterday
      I was cheerful, bright and gay
      Looking forward to, but who wouldn't do
      The role I was about to play

      But as if to knock me down
      Reality came around
      And without so much as a mere touch
      Cut me into little pieces

      Leaving me to doubt
      All about God and His mercy
      For if He really does exist
      Why did He desert me

      In my hour of need?
      I truly am indeed
      Alone again, naturally

      It seems to me that
      There are more hearts
      Broken in the world
      That can't be mended

      Left unattended
      What do we do? What do we do?

      Alone again naturally

      Now looking back over the years
      And what ever else that appears
      I remember I cried when my father died
      Never wishing to hide the tears

      And at sixty five years old
      My mother, God rest her soul
      Couldn't understand, why the only man
      She had ever loved had been taken

      Leaving her to start with a heart
      So badly broken
      Despite encouragement from me
      No words were ever spoken

      And when she passed away
      I cried and cried all day
      Alone again, naturally
      Alone again, naturally"

      Never let me go by Florence and the Machine, this is totally morbid but if I outlive all my friends as a little old lady and I get sick and tired... I'm gonna put on a sparkly evening gown and a waterproof MP3 player (or whatever crazy technology exists then) with this song playing and just swim out into the ocean and never come back.

      Also Just Breath by Pearl Jam so many feels.

      Waitin on June by Holly Williams. The story of her grandparents' lifetime love, so both happy and sad, but I can't get through it, really listening to it, without crying. And seeing her perform live? Forget it, she starts her intro into it and I'm blubbering!!

      This. I can't listen to it without bawling... I think every new parent should be forced to listen to it.

      Chasing cars is a personal one for me.

      Screw you, "Concrete Angel"

      The first time I heard that song, I had to pull over on the road I was crying so hard. I still can't even hear the first few lines without bawling.

      How has no one said "Tears In Heaven" by Eric Clapton??? It's about his son who fell off an apartment balcony as a BABY and wondering if his son will remember him when he gets to heaven. Oh the feels :sad:

      To a Sleeping Beauty -- Jimmy Dean

      I recorded this song the day my Daughter was Born. I plan to give it to her on her 21st Birthday. (Less than 2 months)

      I still get choked up every time I hear it.

      "Nothing Compares To You" by Sinead O'Connor has been breaking my heart since 1990. My sentimental middle school self must've connected with it then for some reason...

      "Why" by Rascal Flatts was played at my 16-year old cousin's funeral last year... he committed suicide. I can't get past the first line without tears streaming down my face...
