Love of my life, by Blues Traveler

I just couldn't cry
No matter how hard I try
I knew the love we shared was dead
Until she gave me a letter
With some words she wrote down
And I swear this is what she said
She said...

Love of my life our first night together
We sat in the rain and talked forever
Love of my life your carefree way
Showed me the potential of each and
every day

But love of my life
When you told me today
That my place was gone
In your carefree way
I realized...

She said...

She said love of my life now I finally see
A carefree way wasn't meant for me
The pain I feel you just can't understand
You'd think it as fire, pull away your hand

But love of my life
When you told me today
That my place was gone in your carefree
way
I realized...

You know she realized she must learn for
once on her own not to let her days burn
Because she's alone
She needed to learn for once on her own
not to let her days burn
Because she's alone
She needed to learn for once on her own
not to let her days burn
Because she's alone
She said...

Love of my life your arms were never shy
To hold me tight when I needed to cry
Love of my life you made me believe
And for that I do love you but I know I
must leave

Because love of my life
When you told me today
That my place was gone
In your carefree way
I realized...

Oh yes she realized, and for once so did I
Because it occurred to me the love of my
life was she
And then and only then I started to cry

The lyrics are very much in tune with the tone set by the music, and that's what does it for me.

Because I am an ameteur musician and write poetry, music can get to me this way. Not much else does, but music has a good chance if it's done right.

I like that song and I REALLY like Katie Tunstall. Why do you cry when hearing it?

The Story of My Life - Neil Diamond

The story of my life is very plain to read
It starts the day you came
And ends the day you leave
The story of my life begins and ends with you
The names are still the same
And the story's still the truth

I was alone.
You found me waiting and made me your own
I was afraid
That somehow I never could be the man that you wanted of me

You're the story of my life, and every word is true
Each chapter sings your name
Each page begins with you
It's the story of our times and never letting go
If I die today, I wanted you to know

Stay with me here
Share with me, care with me
Stay and be near
And when it began I'd lie awake every night
Just knowing somewhere deep inside
That our affair just might write

The story of my life,
is very plain to read
It starts the day you came
It ends the day you leave
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(I know this is an old song but it has always made me cry.)
