21 Songs That Move Me to Tears (and the Lyrics That Do Me In, Every Time)
Some say music is the soundtrack of life. I agree.
Introduction
I admit it. I’m an emotional guy.
Okay, I’m a crier.
But I’d bet you are too under the right conditions.
For me, as I spend the majority of my days writing to earn my keep, a pair of music- blaring headphones are as important a work instrument as my attachable iPad keyboard.
The music that emanates from them marks moments and passages of my life that wring tears upon reflection.
The songs and melodies that follow are not necessarily sad; they are, however, representative of a life of victory and trauma. At times when I hear them, I think back wistfully to the “good old days.” At other times, they bring me back to moments of heartbreak and even tragedy.
Collectively, they epitomize moments of my life I never want to forget.
The music that follows, in no particular order, reminds me I’ve lived, loved… and lost.
