    I'm compiling a CD of songs that make you cry (I'm in that mood). What songs are tear jerkers to you?

    Thanks - LL

    Smalltown Boy by Brosnski Beat always makes me fill up! I know it's specifically about being gay, but I think anyone who has experienced the pain and alienation of being "different" will understand the raw pain in those lyrics.

    You leave in the morning
    With everything you own
    In a little black case
    Alone on a platform
    The wind and the rain
    On a sad and lonely face

    Mother will never understand
    Why you had to leave
    But the answers you seek
    Will never be found at home
    The love that you need
    Will never be found at home

    Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
    Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

    Pushed around and kicked around
    Always a lonely boy
    You were the one
    That they'd talk about around town
    As they put you down

    And as hard as they would try
    They'd hurt to make you cry
    But you never cried to them
    Just to your soul
    No you never cried to them
    Just to your soul

    Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
    Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

    Cry , boy, cry...

    You leave in the morning
    With everything you own
    In a little black case
    Alone on a platform
    The wind and the rain
    On a sad and lonely face

    Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.
    Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away.

    Not quite, but many song put me into a state of somnalence (if that's the right word).

    Heres one:

    Debussy - Clair De Lune

    obviously, there aren't any lyrics - it's a clasical piece, but the eb and flow of the melody is very moving.

    I Can't Make You Love Me, by Bonnie Rait...it just makes me want to cry. I have to turn it if it comes on in the car or I'll be a mascara running mess.
