  This song is kind of comforting when I'm down until.....I hear that one line, "if happiness is the truth". That's the ONE thing I hate about that song.

  The snow glows white on the mountain tonight

  Not a footprint to be seen
  A kingdom of isolation, and it looks like I'm the queen
  The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
  Couldn't keep it in
  Heaven knows I tried

  Don't let them in, don't let them see
  Be the good girl you always had to be
  Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
  Well now they know

  Let it go, let it go
  Can't hold it back anymore
  Let it go, let it go
  Turn my back and slam the door
  And here I stand
  And here I'll stay
  Let it go, let it go
  The cold never bothered me anyway

  It's funny how some distance makes everything seem small
  And the fears that once controlled me can't get to me at all
  Up here in the cold thin air I finally can breathe
  I know I left a life behind but I'm too relieved to grieve

  Let it go, Let it go
  Can't hold it back anymore
  Let it go, Let it go,
  Turn my back and slam the door
  And here I stand
  And here I'll stay
  Let it go, let it go
  The cold never bothered me anyway

  Standing - frozen in the life I've chosen
  You won't find me, the past is so behind me
  Buried in the snow

  Let it go, let it go
  Can't hold it back anymore
  Let it go, let it go,
  Turn my back and slam the door
  And here I stand
  And here I'll stay
  Let it go, let it go
  The cold never bothered me anyway...

  Crazy song, but I love it. The Weight by The Band.

  I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead
  I just need some place where I can lay my head
  "Hey, mister, can you tell me where a man might find a bed?"
  He just grinned and shook my hand, "no" was all he said....

  I very much identified with the character Fantine, in Le Miserabe, who sang the song "I dreamed A Dream"

  I had a dream my life would be

  So different from this hell I'm living

  Also anything by Van Morrison. Losing my religion, by Depeche Mode.
