Broke

What song puts a tear in your eye when you hear it

Recommended Posts

Here's mine

I woke today...
And felt your side of bed
The covers were still warm where you'd been layin'.
You were gone...
My heart was filled with dread.
You might not be sleepin' here again

[Chorus:]
It's alright, 'cause I love you.
And that's not gonna change.
Run me round, make me hurt again and again.
But I'll still sing you love songs
Written in the letters of your name.
And brave the storm to come,
For it surely looks like rain.

Did you ever waken to the sound
Of street cats makin' love
And guess from their cries
You were listenin' to a fight?
Well, you know...
Hate's just the last thing they're thinkin' of.
They're only trying to make it through the night.

[Chorus:]

I only want to hold you.
I don't want to tie you down.
Or fence you in the lines
I might have drawn.
It's just that I've gotten used to
Havin' you around.
My landscape would be empty
If you were gone.

There's a group of songs that brings back memories of the fall of 1999, those songs always bring a tear to my eye. Its not the song its self, but whats associated with the song.
--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

When I saw the other ones play LLR into the way it is into Bird song it was kinda emotional for me. I know it's sad, but I'll never be able to see Jerry sing it

Louis Armstrong

WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD


I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world

The colours of the rainbow, so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shakin' hands, sayin' "How do you do?"
They're really saying "I love you"

I hear babies cryin', I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself, what a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself, what a wonderful world

Oh yeah



Quote

Otis Redding

Dock of the Bay

Sittin in the morning sun,
I`ll be sittin' when the evening come,
Watching the ships roll in,
And I'll watch 'em roll away again, yeah,
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Watching the tide roll away, ouh,
I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Wasting time.

I left my home in Georgia,
Headed for the Frisco bay
I have nothing to live for,
Look like nothings gonna come my way,

So I'm just go sit on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away,
I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay,
Wasting time

Look like nothings gonna change,
Everything still remain the same,
I can't do what ten people tell me to do,
So I guess I'll remain the same, yes,

Sittin' here resting my bones,
And this loneliness won't leave me alone, yes,
Two thousand miles I roam
Just to make this dock my home

Now I'm just go sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away, ooh
Sittin' on the dock of the bay
Wasting time

You're not as good as you think you are. Seriously.

The Dance...


Looking back on the memory of
The dance we shared 'neath the stars alone
For a moment all the world was right
How could I have known that you'd ever say goodbye

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Holding you I held everything
For a moment wasn't I a king
But if I'd only known how the king would fall
Hey who's to say you know I might have changed it all

And now I'm glad I didn't know
The way it all would end the way it all would go
Our lives are better left to chance I could have missed the pain
But I'd of had to miss the dance

Yes my life is better left to chance
I could have missed the pain but I'd of had to miss the dance

Only God knows Why

Ive been sittin here tryin to find myself
I get behind myself, I need to rewind myself
Lookin for the payback, listen for the playback
They say that every man bleeds just like me
I feel like number one, yet Im last in line
I watch my youngest son and it helps to pass the time
I take to many pills...it helps to ease the pain
I made a couple dollar bills, still I feel the same
Everybody knows my name, say it way out loud
A lotta folks fuck with me, its hard to hang out in crowds
I guess thats the price you pay to be some big shot like I am
Outstretched hands and one night stands, still I cant find love
And when your walls come tumblin down, I will always be around
...yea anyone and now...
And when your walls come tumblin down, I will always be around
People dont know about the things I say or do
They dont understand about the shit that Ive been through
Its been so long since Ive been home
Ive been gone Ive been gone for way to long
Maybe I forgot all the things Id miss
Oh somehow I know theres more to life then this
I said it too many times and I still stand firm
You get what you put in, and people get what deserve
Still I aint seen mine no I aint seen mine
Ive been givin just aint been gettin Ive been walkin back that line
So I think ill keep on walkin with my head held high
Ill keep movin on and only God knows why
Only god..
Only god..
Only God knows why
Only God knows...why why why why only God knows why
Take it to the devil, hey wont you take me to the river
Hey hey hey hey hey....

Anybody know any David Allen Coe?



I was drunk the day my mom got out of prison
and I went to pick her up in the rain
But before I could get to the station in my pick-up truck
She got runned over by a dammed ol' train

And I'll hang around as long as you will let me....

blah, blah, blah

You don't have to call me darlin, darlin.
You never even called me by my name....

I know this is dorky, but Live's "Overcome" I can't listen to it because I get all torn up :S

Please don't laugh at me. I ain't gay, I'm just sensitive :D
You know what's similar between Cops and Firefighters? They both wanna be firefighters.

Ok, I'll play. Here's mine. Drug free is wonderful!! :)
"Amazing" by Aerosmith

I kept the right ones out
And let the wrong ones in
Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
There were times in my life
When I was goin' insane
Tryin' to walk through
The pain
When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah,I thought I could leave but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin that I
Would die

[Chorus:]
It's Amazing
With the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's Amazing
When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
It's Amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight

That one last shot's a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fly with broken wings?
Life's a journey not a destination
And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings

You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk, oh yeah
I was out on the street,
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay
Alive
[Chorus]

Desperate hearts, desperate hearts

Be yourself!

This one gets me every time.

Last Kiss

Oh, where oh where can my baby be
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven so I've got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave ... this world

We were out on a date in my daddy's car
We hadn't driven very far
There in the road, straight ahead
A car was stalled, the engine was dead
I couldn't stop, so I swerved to the right
I'll never forget the sound that night
The cryin' tires, the bustin' glass
The painful scream that I ... heard last

Oh, where oh where can my baby be
The Lord took her away from me
She's gone to heaven so I've got to be good
So I can see my baby when I leave ... this world


When I woke up the rain was pourin' down
There were people standing all around
Something warm was runnin' in my eyes
But I found my baby somehow that night
I raised her head, and then she smiled and said
Hold me darling for a little while
I held her close, I kissed her our last kiss
I found the love that I knew I would miss
Now she's gone, even though I hold her tight
I lost my love, my life ... that night

For me it's
Have a little Faith by John Hyatt

It reminds me of the darkest times in my life where one person stood by me and had Faith in me:)
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)
My Life ROCKS!
How's yours doing?
