Is there a song that brings you to tears every time you hear it? If so, What is it?

[worldscolide]

There is just one song, Before i mention what it is for me, i will say, unlike a lot of people on a certain political spectrum, i have immense respect for our veterans of all armed service branches. My grandfather was a Marine, More specifically he was a lieutenant colonel during the Korean War, and he was decorated, Silver star. I still have his dress uniforms and his saber, as well as his side arm, and a few other things including his medals and rank insignia, god rest him. When i learned how he was treated when he returned from there it broke my heart. How can people be so cruel.

The one song that brings me to tears is called "The wrong side of heaven" the imagery as well as the lyrics are just heart wrenching.

It's hard to get through this song without tears. Most people probably don't understand what happened to his little boy.

Tears in heaven. God reast his little boy.

"There was a Hallmark card this morning on my bureau,

You didn't know what to write so you just signed your name.

That boy that I loved may not have been my hero,

But the same is not true of the man he became."

I always have tears in my eyes when I hear "Taps" played at a funeral.

As a former firefighter that one is super rough.
