Well I've got bills to pay and children who need clothes
I know there's fish out there but where God only knows
They say these waters aren't what thet used to be
But I've got people back on land who count on me

Extremely underrated song. Will give this one a listen tonight.

Does anyone have any great sad songs to share, lyrics, links or titles? Thank you in advance!

I’ll go first:

Gordon Lightfoot- If You Could Read My Mind

There’s a new one out by a young Scottish gy? It just breaks my heart. Can’t think of the name but he played at JingleBall so he is current.

Are you thinking about Lewis Capaldi? Somone You Loved.

Some more older ones:

These are the days of our lives-Queen
Live for Today-Grassroots
Lullabye-Shawn Mullins

REM "Everybody hurts sometimes"

Pearl Jam: Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town"

Didn't realize I needed a good cry, but I had one.

Didn’t realize I did too. Saddest Christmas song ever.

Just telling my teen DD how her voice is like an angel’s. And love love that song.

Just a Song Before I Go

Carry Me

“ And then there was my mother:
She was lying in white sheets there and she was waiting to die.
She said, "If you'd just reach underneath this bed
And untie these weights,
I could surely fly.
She's still smiling but she's tired,
She'd like to hear that last bell ring.
You know if she could she would
Stand up, and she could sing, singing
Carry me, carry me
Carry me above the world
Carry me, carry me.”

Babyface - When Can I See You
