songs that make you cry...

well there's only one song that really made me drop some tears, and it's " Parisienne Moonlight" by "Anathema" band.

Band: Anathema
Song: Parisienne Moonlight
Album: Judgment

I feel I know you
I don't know how
I don't know why

I see you feel for me
You cried with me
You would die for me

I know I need you
I want you
To be free of all the pain
You have inside

You cannot hide
I know you tried
To be who you couldn't be
You tried to see inside of me

And now i'm leaving you
I don't want to go
Away from you

Please try to understand
Take my hand
Be free of all the pain
You hold inside

You cannot hide
I know you tried
To feel...
To feel...
 
Casimir Pulaski Day by Sufjan Steves - greatest song about bone cancer ever. No! scratch that! Greatest song about cancer period. If it doesn't make you well-up you're a hard bastard :D
 
Fritz and Sweeney by Troll perhaps. But an interview with the survivors of some horrible attrocity or just plain old tweezers + nose hair is much more effective.
 
"Another Day in Paradise" by Phil Collins.

Lyrics:

She calls out to the man on the street
sir, can you help me?
Its cold and Ive nowhere to sleep,
Is there somewhere you can tell me?

He walks on, doesnt look back
He pretends he cant hear her
Starts to whistle as he crosses the street
Seems embarrassed to be there

Oh think twice, its another day for
You and me in paradise
Oh think twice, its just another day for you,
You and me in paradise

She calls out to the man on the street
He can see shes been crying
Shes got blisters on the soles of her feet
Cant walk but shes trying

Oh think twice...

Oh lord, is there nothing more anybody can do
Oh lord, there must be something you can say

You can tell from the lines on her face
You can see that shes been there
Probably been moved on from every place
cos she didn't fit in there

Oh think twice...
