"Oh God if you're out there won't you hear me
I know that we've never talked before
oh God the man I love is leaving
won't you take him when he comes to your door"


The emotion in her voice when she sings that part tears me up.

I'm surprised that nobody has mentioned Dwight Yoakam.

TITLE - Home for Sale
ALBUM - This Time (1993)

(written by Dwight Yoakam)

Home for sale
That’s much too large
Too many rooms
Big ole empty yard

Far more space
Than the owner needs
Price includes
All the memories

Home for sale
Restored like new
Just a place
Two lives outgrew

A change in heart
Forces move away
Would like to keep
But just can’t stay

Listen close and you might hear the sound
Of what you think is rainfall leaking down
The roof is fine
Set aside your fears
It’s just a few remaining tears

Home for sale
Not all that old
A family’s’s dream
Stands dark and cold

Scenic views
That go for free
Of all the love
That used to be

Home for sale
That’s much too large

TITLE - Heart of Stone
ALBUM - Gone (1995)

(written by Dwight Yoakam)

Chorus:
This heart of stone sure is missing you
Sure is wishing you were back where love belongs
This heart of stone has not forgotten you
But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong

Memories have made it’s will grow tired and weak
Silently it turned from being bold to meek
’til finally it gave into a sad defeat
Aching more and more with every fragile beat

Chorus:
This heart of stone sure is missing you
Sure is wishing you were back where love belongs
This heart of stone has not forgotten you
But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong

Loneliness has slowly stripped it of it’s pride
Leaving just an empty well here behind
Without a hope of anyway it could survive
Stranded there alone and simply left to die

Chorus:
This heart of stone sure is missing you
Sure is wishing you were back where love belongs
This heart of stone has not forgotten you
But broke while trying to pretend that it was strong

maybe...but when you're in the situation...it is really really touching.
I have to say that it was very touching in the movie "Best Little Whorehouse in Texas". :D

black - pearl jam

oh my goodness what an absolutely emotionaly devistating song. listening to it when something major happens to you like a heart break or the death of someone close is just devistating. talk about tapping into something directly in our subconcious primal nature. it plunges you into a river of dispair and leaves you washed up on the shore in a state of exhausted catharsis. em... sorry..

anyway Id also throw in Bell Bottom Blues and Space Odyssey

Sevendust - Angel's Son
Life is changing
I can't go on without you
Rearranging. I will be strong
I'll stand by you

(You were fighting everyday)
(So hard to hide the pain)
(I know you never said goodbye)
(I had so much left to say)

One last song
Given to an Angel's Son
As soon as you were gone
As soon as you were gone

I have a new life now
She lives through you
What can I do
Feel so alone now
I pray for you
We still love you

I can't believe you're gone

I can't believe

I forgot a few:

Send in the Clowns - Judy Collins
Creep - Radiohead
Stole - Kelly Rowland
Colorblind - Counting Crows
Hurt - NIN
The Freshmen - The Verve Pipe
Wonderul - Everclear
Angel - Sarah McGlahlin
The Kids - Lou Reed
Tears in Heaven - Eric Clapton

PC - Unforgiven always hits me in the gut. Damned powerful song.

Everclear's "Wonderful" always hits me in the gut. I forgot to mention that song. But, truthfully, that song describes my life somewhat when I was a kid growing up.

--
Hope my mom and I hope my dad
Will figure out why they get so mad
Hear them scream, I hear them fight
They say bad words that make me wanna cry

Close my eyes when I go to bed
And I dream of angels who make me smile
I feel better when I hear them say
Everything will be wonderful someday

--
Promises mean everything when you're little
And the world is so big
I just don't understand how
You can smile with all those tears in your eyes
When you tell me everything is wonderful now
--

That part always makes me teary, because that was my mom exactly.
