If you have ever been divorced you'll know exactly what he means:

I'm So Happy I Can't Stop Crying

Seven weeks have passed now since she left me,
She shows her face to ask me how I am
She says the kids are fine and that they miss me
Maybe I could come and baby-sit sometime
She says, "Are you O.K.? I was worried about you.
Can you forgive me? I hope that you'll be happy."
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm so happy I'm laughing through my tears

I saw a friend of mine. He said,
"I was worried about you
I heard she had another man,
I wondered how you felt about it?"
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm so happy I'm laughing through my tears
Saw my lawyer, Mr. Good News
He got me joint custody and legal separation
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears.
I'm laughing through my tears

I took a walk alone last night.
I looked up at the stars
To try and find an answer in my life
I chose a star for me. I chose a star for him
I chose two stars for my kids and one star for my wife
Something made me smile. Something seemed to ease the pain
Something about the universe and how it's all connected

The park is full of Sunday fathers and melted ice cream
We try to do the best within the given time
A kid should be with his mother,
Everybody knows that
What can a father do but baby-sit sometimes?
I saw that friend of mine, he said,
"You look different somehow."
I said, "Everybody's got to leave the darkness sometime."
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm so happy that I can't stop crying
I'm laughing through my tears
I'm laughing through my tears

Pillar of Davidson - Live

The Best man in my Wedding (moved out to Tigard, OR for his job) was in a coma 1 year before our wedding (car accident).   He overcame all of the obstacles and roadblocks to stand at my wedding (I was present when he came out of the then drug induced coma).  We told him afterwards had he NOT made it, noone would have stood in his place.  I've known him for 17 years.

Saw Live do this song in 2000, it was closure, but it still waters me up when I hear it.

"I'll be along son with medicine supposed to, designed to make you high.  I'll be along son with words for a feeling and all I've discovered"

What, 17 posts and no 'Cat's in the Cradle'?  Or bagpipes playing 'Amazing Grace'?

Chapin's tune makes me think of my almost 3 year old son (Sept. 8th) with a sense of joy.   I took my wife (then fiance) to see The Black Watch.  It was great, I am part Scottish.

Don't really cry, but I get all lumpy to Bruce Springsteen's The River from his live at NYC album.... not from the song so much as the monologue before it.

yup gotta admit I've never been dry eyed watching a fireman/policman's funeral when the bagpipes play amazing grace.

Somone did mention Taps on the bugle;)

Seriously, I was very moved during a Funeral detail when they played Taps with an echoing bugle in the distance. The guys had it timed perfectly.
