Songs That Bring Tears To Your Eyes.

I told my Dad several 100's of times that I loved him, but I have a friend that came from a dysfunctional family and he has told me on numerous occasions that no one in his family has (had) ever told anyone that they loved them. How sad is that? So, when I think about the people that have never told anyone that they loved them, it brings tears to my eyes. And here is a song dedicated to those poor unfortunate folks that have never experienced the joy of saying "I Love You" to someone that they truly did love, but could never get the words out.

 
The words of Eleanor Rigby always fill me up.


Eleanor Rigby Lyrics


Ah look at all the lonely people
Ah look at all the lonely people


Eleanor Rigby, picks up the rice
In the church where a wedding has been
Lives in a dream
Waits at the window, wearing the face
That she keeps in a jar by the door
Who is it for


All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?


Father McKenzie, writing the words
Of a sermon that no one will hear
No one comes near
Look at him working, darning his socks
In the night when there's nobody there
What does he care


All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?


Ah look at all the lonely people
Ah look at all the lonely people


Eleanor Rigby, died in the church
And was buried along with her name
Nobody came
Father McKenzie, wiping the dirt
From his hands as he walks from the grave
No one was saved


All the lonely people
Where do they all come from?
All the lonely people
Where do they all belong?
 
Aubrey, by Bread

Factoid::) "Aubrey appeared on Bread's 1972 album Guitar Man. David Gates wrote the song after watching Breakfast at Tiffany's starring Audrey Hepburn. This song swapped the assumed gender of the name Aubrey, nearly extinguishing its use as a male name and popularizing it as a female name up to the present."

 
A young girl that I saw " Almost Famous" with...even though it was Bernie Taupin's estranged wife, now my estranged daughter..."Tiny Dancer"...
Breaks your heart again.
