    You're Still Here by Faith Hill

    This is on her new CD.

    Everytime I hear this song I think of Lisa Beamer, wife of Todd Beamer who lost his life on 9/11 in a field in Pennsylvania. So sad.

    Sabine, I had 4 tickets to Bonnie Rait purchased already when my marriage ended. I couldn't get them sold, so 3 workmates went with me. I was actually having a good time, and thinking, "hey, maybe life can go on" when she came out with "I can't make you love me". It was messy from there on out.

    It could probably summons up a tear or two right now, as could "Friends" by Elton John.

    Outaservice....I'm totally gutted by those heartfelt lyrics...sheds a tear.

    Matty I'd never heard the lyrics to that song...gulp.

    Supertramps "logical song" lyrics are meaningful but the music aint sad:

    When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful,
    a miracle, oh it was beautiful, magical.
    And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily,
    joyfully, playfully watching me.
    But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible,
    logical, responsible, practical.
    And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable,
    clinical, intellectual, cynical.

    There are times when all the world's asleep,
    the questions run too deep
    for such a simple man.
    Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
    I know it sounds absurd
    but please tell me who I am.

    Now watch what you say or they'll be calling you a radical,
    liberal, fanatical, criminal.
    Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're
    acceptable, respecable, presentable, a vegtable!

    At night, when all the world's asleep,
    the questions run so deep
    for such a simple man.
    Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned
    I know it sounds absurd
    but please tell me who I am.

    I listen to this song when I'm feeling really down.

    Dante's Prayer
    			
    Music and Lyrics Loreena McKennitt
    When the dark wood fell before me 
    And all the paths were overgrown
    When the priests of pride say there is no other way
    I tilled the sorrows of stone
     
    I did not believe because I could not see 
    Though you came to me in the night
    When the dawn seemed forever lost
    You showed me your love in the light of the stars
     
    Cast your eyes on the ocean 
    Cast your soul to the sea 
    When the dark night seems endless 
    Please remember me 
     
    Then the mountain rose before me 
    By the deep well of desire 
    From the fountain of forgiveness 
    Beyond the ice and fire 
     
    Cast your eyes on the ocean 
    Cast your soul to the sea 
    When the dark night seems endless 
    Please remember me 
     
    Though we share this humble path, alone 
    How fragile is the heart 
    Oh give these clay feet wings to fly 
    To touch the face of the stars 
     
    Breathe life into this feeble heart 
    Lift this mortal veil of fear 
    Take these crumbled hopes, etched with tears 
    We'll rise above these earthly cares 
     
    Cast your eyes on the ocean 
    Cast your soul to the sea 
    When the dark night seems endless 
    Please remember me 
    Please remember me
