not really a 'song' but occasionally I'll hear this in my head when I'm thinking about losses

My Real Dad passed away late last Year...now this.
Man seems like GOD really has a liking to me.
I'm just feeling really numb now.

No Fred, thank you for the friendship we have enjoyed.   I get a bad reputation that is both unwarranted, and unsolicited.   I deal with it, and laugh at those who think of it as such (because those who know me, realize it).   I care more about the Community, than the game itself.    The game is a bonus for me.

It's just too bad that these are later versions of the eagles. I also heard that they are making another album soon, thats awsome

Bosco please read the title of the thread...

Songs that put a tear in your eyes.  Not fun drunken karaoke songs.

Tim McGraw's new song "If You're Reading This" really hits home as well.  I've got a few friends flying for Kalitta Charters whose job it is to fly soldiers to their final resting places.  One of those very airplanes brought a friend of mine and one of my mother's former students to his home.  I think it was especially hard on her since she liked him so much and was my age.

That said here is a video of Vince Gill's "Rest High on that Mountain" to the video of one of those soldiers.  This video is worth a thread in itself I believe but I'll post it here for now.  Someone posted this on another board I frequent and it brings tears to my eyes.

A fallen soldiers return home.

Man I cried a River of Tears today.  

Seems like my heart has been ripped out again.

Good Lord I'm getting too old for the emotional pain anymore.

Lord in less than 5 Years you have taken my Brother, My Niece, My Father and now my Adoptive Father.. I'm left unemployed. Must I suffer more?
I throw my hands up. I am in so much pain.. I quit. Whatever you want from me show me a sign. Just please stop the pain. I submit.
mac

I've hit the bottom... the pain is killin me.
What did I do wrong in my Life?
LORD show me a sign, what do you want from me?
