So for today I guess I'll talk about some music. There are some songs out there that just make me cry. Sometimes I can't put my finger on it other times it's obviously words or melody and other times it's the connection to something else.
Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven If you've seen Mr. Holland's Opus you may remember the scene where he plays it for his class talking about how Beethoven was deaf after just finding out his son was deaf. Seriously breaks my heart.
Goodnight - Liz Calloway This one is words + performance that makes me sob. Here is a tid bit of the lyrics...
A world without the pain
That's stuck with you for far too long
A world that does contain
A love like mine to watch you grow strong
And when my time arrives
Please wait and make a place for me
For when I do arrive
Your face should be the first face I see
Dry away the tears
Lay aside your fears
No more pain for my love
You have now gone to sleep
Roses Theme- Murry Gold Yes, from the Doctor Who soundtrack because I'm lame. I just think of her standing on that beach crushed when this song plays. Ugh... seriously if you ever see the scene it will stay with you when you hear the theme.
I Can Only Imagine - Mercy Me Once again lame but I can't help it! Sometimes I just get in that place where I know I need the perspective of a song like this and it helps humble me and question what I would do in heaven in the presence of God.
Those You've Known - Spring Awakening Cast I won't spoil the show but this is the final song before bows.
Now they’ll walk on my arm through the distant night
And I won’t let them stray from my heart
Through the wind, through the dark, through the winter light
I will read all their dreams to the stars
I'm sure there are others out there but that's my short list. I actually like to have a good dry sometimes so if you have any awesome songs that make you cry I want to know!
