Butterfly Kisses by Bob Carlisle, Every time I listen to it I cry and I'm not allowed to listen to it anymore and if I do my mom puts on Tokio Hotel's song Don't Jump because their music always calms me down and gives me strength.

I'm not allowed to listen to it anymore because it reminds me of myself and my daddy, and all the things I've missed and that I will miss with him

Butterfly Kisses lyrics

There's two things I know for sure.
She was sent here from heaven, and she’s daddy’s little girl.
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night,
She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes.
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life, But most of all...

For Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk beside the pony daddy, it’s my first ride."
"I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried."
Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

Sweet sixteen today.
She’s looking like her momma a little more every day.
One part woman, the other part girl.
To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls.
Trying her wings in a great big world. But I remember...

Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"You know how much I love you daddy, but if you don’t mind,
I’m only going to kiss you on cheek this time."
With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night.

All the precise time.
Like the wind, the years go by.
Precious butterfly, spread your wings and fly.

She’ll change her name today.
She’ll make a promise, and I’ll give her away.
Standing in the bride room just staring at her.
She asked me what I’m thinking, and I said, "I’m not sure,
I just feel like I’m losing my baby girl."
Then she leaned over... and gave me...

Butterfly kisses, with her mama there.
Stickin’ little white flowers all up in her hair.
"Walk me down the aisle daddy, it’s just about time."
"Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?" "Daddy don’t cry."
With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right.
To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses.
I couldn’t ask God for more, man, this is what love is.
I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember.
Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses... at night

There's a song that comes on the radio during Christmas time that is just one of the saddest songs ever. The name of the song is The Christmas Shoes. It's about a boy that tries to buy a pair of Christmas shoes for his dying mother. It just reminds me that we got caught up in small things and sometimes lose sight of the important events and people in life.
This is a link to the song and lyrics:

Hmm...I love music and so many songs evoke so many emotions in me. Off the top of my head, I'd have to list the following as bringing tears to my eyes:

A few by The Cure: Plainsong, Pictures of You and From the Edge of the Deep Green Sea

Sigur Ros: many, many MANY songs by Sigur Ros bring tears to my eyes. He has the voice of an angel...doesn't matter what the lyrics are. Amazing!

Coldplay: The Scientist (like many others have mentioned), A Warning Sign, Fix You and probably Sparks. Oh, and sometimes Trouble. Lots of CP songs make me cry!

Travis: Driftwood, The Humpty Dumpty Love Song, The Cage and Indefinitely. Oh and Pipe Dreams and Sing kinda do too! Lol...

Keane: Bedshaped, Somewhere Only We Know and the remake of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road. Lots of Keane songs make me weepy though haha. Love them!!

Also many Fiona Apple songs - probably Sullen Girl and Oh Well.

Lots of Sarah McLachlan songs, Tori Amos, Regina Spektor, Blue October, and probably a ton more that I'm forgetting at the moment. Oh, well - I love music! I was already planning out the soundtrack to the Twilight saga before SM did so. Hehe...funny - she and I seem to have similar tastes in music! I was pleased to see that she is a huge Muse fan, as am I. Finally got to see them live on their last tour. Many canceled dates before that left me heartbroken! hehe...so I guess Muse makes me cry, too. Lol! :roll:

So many songs can move me to tears, I'm sure I'll think of a bazillion more. I really enjoy reading other people's though, I feel a little more normal knowing other people are as equally wussy! By the way- you all have great music taste.

Coldplay- The Scientist, Fix You, Green Eyes
Tim McGraw- Red Rag Top
Kelly Clarkson- Sober
Brand New- The Boy Who Blocked His Own Shot (I was thrilled to see that on the New Moon playlist)
Hawthorne Heights- Decembers
Sage Francis- Broken Wings, Bridle
Atmosphere- F!@# You Lucy, Lftr Pllr(Lift Her, Pull Her)
Third Eye Blind- The Background, Deep Inside of You, Motorcycle Drive-By

My life was an unending, unchanging midnight. It must, by necessity, always be midnight for me. So how was it possible that the sun was rising now, in the middle of my midnight?

"Hands" by Jewel. We had someone come to our school and talk about this program called "rachel's challenge," and this song was played at the end as a tribute to rachel scott. if you don't know who she is, there was a major high school shooting in the US in 1999, and this girl was the first one who was killed. its a very sad story, and whenever this song comes on, it makes me cry. gah.

if you want to know more about what rachels challenge is, please either pm me or go to http://rachelschallenge.com/ it has changed my life for the better.

ok, enough of my soap opera. :) heres a link to the song for those of you who want to listen to it. it is very inspiring if you listen to the lyrics. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_8NF9BBVdU
