He stopped love her, was my favorite song too. I just love George Jones and I especially love his and Tammy Wynettes duets, like DIVORCE.

I was watching CMT today and saw the video of this song by Sara Evans called : Cheaten , I think it fits right in here :
I love this song too. I often wonder what FWS thinks when we are both together driving and this comes on the radio.

Wow! There are some really good ones here! Some faves of mine like "Hair Of The Dog" and "The Reason" and that one by Sara Evans.....
Right after D-day, I bought myself a cd by Gavin De Graw cause I liked the song "I Don't Wanna Be". I was surprised to find there were many songs on it that I connected with. It literally got me through the first 2 months of this night mare! This one particularly hit home for me!
"|Just Friends" I saw you there last night Standing in the dark You were acting so in love With your hand upon his heart But you were just friends At least that's what you said Now I know better from his fingers in your hair I forgive you for what you've done If you say that I'm the one I've had other options too But all I want is you Girl your body fits me like a glove And you shower me with words of love And you were just friends At least that's what you said Now I know better from his fingers in your hair I forgive you for what you've done If you say that I'm the one It's not my style to lay it in on the line But you don't leave me with a choice this time Why weren't you true? You know I trusted you When you were just friends At least that's what you said Now I know better from his fingers in your hair I forgive you for what you've done If you say that I'm the one You were just friends At least that's what you said Now I know better from his fingers in your hair I forgive you for what you've done If you say that I'm the one I'll forgive you for what you've done If you say that I'm the one I'll forgive you for what you've done If you say that I'm the one I'll forgive you

I guess where in this process you are at. THis has been one of my favourites for a LONG time.
Bonnie Raitt:
I can't Make you Love Me
Turn down the lights; Turn down the bed. Turn down these voices Inside my head.
Lay down with me; Tell me no lies. Just hold me close; Don't patronize.
Don't patronize me.
[Chorus:] 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't. You can't make your heart feel Something it won't. Here in the dark In these final hours, I will lay down my heart And I'll feel the power; But you won't. No, you won't. 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't.
I'll close my eyes, Then I won't see The love you don't feel When you're holding me.
Morning will come, And I'll do what's right; Just give me till then To give up this fight.
And I will give up this fight. Turn down the lights; Turn down the bed. Turn down these voices Inside my head.
Lay down with me; Tell me no lies. Just hold me close; Don't patronize.
Don't patronize me.
[Chorus:] 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't. You can't make your heart feel Something it won't. Here in the dark In these final hours, I will lay down my heart And I'll feel the power; But you won't. No, you won't. 'Cuz I can't make you love me If you don't.
I'll close my eyes, Then I won't see The love you don't feel When you're holding me.
Morning will come, And I'll do what's right; Just give me till then To give up this fight.
And I will give up this fight.

I must have turned into a pretty sappy individual lately, but this has always been a tear jerker.
Faithfully - Journey
Highway run Into the midnight sun Wheels go round and round You’re on my mind Restless hearts Sleep alone tonight Sendin’ all my love Along the wire
They say that the road Ain’t no place to start a family Right down the line It’s been you and me And lovin’ a music man Ain’t always what it’s supposed to be Oh girl you stand by me I’m forever yours...faithfully
Circus life Under the big top world We all need the clowns To make us smile Through space and time Always another show Wondering where I am Lost without you
And being apart ain’t easy On this love affair Two strangers learn to fall in love again I get the joy Of rediscovering you Oh girl, you stand by me I’m forever yours...faithfully
Oh, oh, oh, oh Faithfully, I’m still yours I’m forever yours Ever yours...faithfully
----------------------------------------------
Faithfully, because SOMEONE has to be <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />

CamoKnightsWife,
I was listening to "Behind those Hazel Eyes" and I started thinking about your DD. Could she also be mourning through the music? My parents got divorced when I was 12/13 & I lived out my emotions through music since it was hard to express how I was feeling. I spent alot of time alone in my room with the music. Just a thought!!!

"Since You've Been Gone" Kelly Clarkson
Here's the thing we started off friends It was cool but it was all pretend Yeah yeah Since you've been gone
You dedicated you took the time Wasn't long till I called you mine Yeah Yeah Since you've been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say Is how I pictured me with you That's all you'd ever hear me say
But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get What I want Since you've been gone
How can I put it? you put me on I even fell for that stupid love song Yeah yeah Since you've been gone
How come I never hear you say I just wanna be with you I guess you never felt that way
But since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you Now I get I get what I want Since you've been gone
You had your chance you blew it Out of sight, out of mind Shut your mouth I just can't take it Again and again and again and again
Since you've been gone I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you (thanks to you) Now I get I get what I want I can breathe for the first time Im so movin on Yeah yeah Thanks to you (thanks to you) Now I get (I get) You should know (you should know) That I get I get what I want Since you've been gone Since you've been gone Since you've been gone

With the things my FWH said today about his "reasons" for cheating", I had to post this song!!
"One Step Closer" Linkin Park
I cannot take this anymore I'm saying everything I've said before All these words they make no sense I find bliss in ignorance Less I hear the less you'll say But you'll find that out anyway Just like before...
Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break
I find the answers aren't so clear Wish I could find a way to disappear All these thoughts they make no sense I find bliss in ignorance Nothing seems to go away Over and over again Just like before...
Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break Break break break break break
shut up when I'm talking to you shut up shut up shut up shut up when I'm talking to you shut up shut up shut up shut up I’m about to break
Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break Break break break break break break
shut up when I'm talking to you shut up shut up shut up shut up when I'm talking to you shut up shut up shut up shut up I’m about to break
Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break Everything you say to me Takes me one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break I need a little room to breathe Cause I'm one step closer to the edge And I'm about to break

This is not a favorite but sure does say alot and about where I am right now:
Fairy-tale The Pointer Sisters ____
I'll pack up all my things and walk away, I don't want to hear another word you have to say I've been waiting for so long, And just found out there's something wrong Nothing will get better if I stay There's no need to explain anymore I tried my best to love you, Now I'm walkin' out the door (Walkin' out the door) You used me, you deceived me, And you never seem to need me But I bet, you won't forget me when I go Oh no, no, no
Seems I've been lost in a dream Pretending that you care But now I've opened up my eyes And found it's all been just a great big fairy-tale I've been lovin' you so long Don't think I even know how to forget you But now the way that things have been I think I'm better off alone than to be with you You don't love me it's plain to see
There's no need to explain anymore I tried my best to love you, Now I'm walkin' out the door (Walkin' out the door) Ahh, you used me, you deceived me, And you never seem to need me But I'll bet you won't forget me when I go Oh no, no, no
Seems I've been lost in a dream Pretending you were mine Someday you'll open up your eyes And realize that a good woman's hard to find Yes I've been lost in a dream Pretending that you care But now I've opened up my eyes And found it's all been just a great big fairy-tale

Nelly - Over and Over
Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again And I can’t keep picturing you with him And it hurts so bad, yeah Cause it’s all in my head I think about it over and over again I replay it over and over again And I can’t take it yeah I can’t shake it Nooo
I can’t wait to see you Want to see if you still got that look in your eyes That one you had for me before we said our goodbyes And it’s a shame that we got to spend our time Being mad about the same things Over and over again About the same things Over and over again Ohh But I think she’s leaving Ooh man she’s leaving I don’t know what else to do (I Can’t go on not loving you)
Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again And I can’t keep picturing you with him And it hurts so bad, yeah Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again I replay it over and over again yeah And I can’t take it yeah I can’t shake it Nooo
I remember the day you left I remember the last breath you took right in front of me When you said that u would leave I was too damn stubborn to try to stop you or say anything But I see clearly now And this choice I made keeps playing in my head Over and over again Playing my head Over and over again Ohh I think she’s leaving Ooh man she’s leaving I don’t know what else to do (I Can’t go on not loving you)
Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again And I can’t keep picturing you with him And it hurts so bad, yeah Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again I replay it over and over again And I can’t take it I can’t shake it Nooo
(Now that I’ve realized that I’m going down From all this pain you’ve put me through Every time I close my eyes I lock it down oh I can’t go on not loving you)
Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again And I can’t keep picturing you with him And it hurts so bad, yeah Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again I replay it over and over again And I can’t take it I can’t shake it Nooo
Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again And I can’t keep picturing you with him And it hurts so bad, yeah Cause its all in my head I think about it over and over again I replay it over and over again And I can’t take it I can’t shake it Nooo
Over and Over again Over and Over again Cause it’s all in my head

This isn't a heartbreak song but I just heard it last week and loved it:
The Table, by the Beautiful South
(From the album "QUENCH")
This table has four sturdy legs And a heart of very near wild oak When others would have screamed out loud my friend This one never even spoke
I've been sat upon, I've been spat upon I've been treated like a bed Been carried like a stretcher, when someone thinks they're dead I've been dined upon, I've been wined upon I've been taken for a fool Taken for a desk, when they should have been at school
This table's been pushed against the door When tempers, well tempers flare at night Banged upon with knuckles clenched my friend When someone thinks that they are right
I've been sat upon, I've been spat upon I've been treated like a bed Been carried like a stretcher, when someone thinks they're dead I've been dined upon, I've been wined upon I've been taken for a fool Taken for a desk, when they should have been at school
Tables only turn when tables learn Put me on a bonfire, watch me burn Treat me with some dignity, don't treat me like a slave Or I'll turn into the coffin in your grave
I've been sat upon, I've been spat upon I've been treated like a bed Been carried like a stretcher, when someone thinks they're dead I've been dined upon, I've been wined upon I've been taken for a fool Taken for a desk, when they should have been at school

I thought I should add this one:
"Don't Fall In Love With A Dreamer" Kenny Rogers and Kim Carnes
KENNY Just look at you sitting there You never looked better than tonight And it'd be so easy to tell ya I'd stay Like I've done so many times
KIM I was so sure this would be the night You'd close the door and want to stay with me And it'd be so easy to tell ya I'll stay Like I've done so many times
BOTH: Don't fall in love with a dreamer 'cause he'll always take you in Just when you think you've really changed him He'll leave you again Don't fall in love with a dreamer 'cause he'll break you every time KIM: Oh, put out the light KENNY: Just hold on BOTH: Before we say goodbye
KIM Now it's mornin' and the phone rings And you say you've gotta get your things together You just gotta leave before ya change your mind
KENNY And if ya knew what I was thinkin', girl I'd turn around if you'd just ask me one more time
BOTH: Don't fall in love with a dreamer KIM: 'cause he'll always take you in BOTH: Just when you think you've really changed him He'll leave you again Don't fall in love with a dreamer KENNY: 'cause he'll break you every time KIM: Oh, put out the light KENNY: Just hold on BOTH: Before we say goodbye BOTH: Before we say goodbye BOTH: Goodbye

I like these too.
"Broken" Seether featuring Amy Lee
I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away I keep your photograph; I know it serves me well I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
You've gone away, you don't feel me anymore
The worst is over now and we can breathe again I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight I wanna hold you high and steal your pain
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open And I don’t feel like I am strong enough ‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open And I don’t feel like I am strong enough ‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome And I don’t feel right when you’re gone
You've gone away, you don't feel me anymore
"My Immortal" Evanescence
I'm so tired of being here Suppressed by all my childish fears And if you have to leave I wish that you would just leave 'Cause your presence still lingers here And it won't leave me alone
These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus:] When you cried I'd wipe away all of your tears When you'd scream I'd fight away all of your fears And I held your hand through all of these years But you still have All of me
You used to captivate me By your resonating light Now I'm bound by the life you left behind Your face it haunts My once pleasant dreams Your voice it chased away All the sanity in me
These wounds won't seem to heal This pain is just too real There's just too much that time cannot erase
[Chorus]
I've tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone But though you're still with me I've been alone all along
[Chorus]

perhaps a bit of hope for some in these words ....
In My Own Time - Delta Goodrum
So much is happening to me. So much that I can't even see. So many words of wisdom that I am trying to be. Catch me if I should fall. And even more so while I'm standing tall.
My head is spinning around and it's making me dizzy. I'm spinning around and it's making me ill. You don't understand what I'm going through just to find a way to climb. It'll be in my own time. It'll be in my own time.
Whispering thoughts in all different ways. That I'm in a daze. My head is spinning around and it's making me dizzy. I'm spinning around and it's making me ill. You don't understand what I'm going through just to find a way to climb.
It'll be in my own time. 'cause it'll be in my own time. In my own time. In my own time I'll take a chance. In my own time I'll find romance. In my own time.
It'll be mine. After the clouds there'll be the rain. After the sun there'll be the moon it doesn't matter. 'cause it'll be in my own time
Life may feel as if you are constantly getting kicked on a daily basis, living is about picking yourself up each day and going on and on and on regardless.

Not exactly a lost-love tune, I guess, but I had tears running down my cheeks the first time I heard it on my way into work one morning.
Sara Beth
Rascal Flatts
Sara Beth is scared to death To hear what the doctor will say She hasn't been well Since the day that she fell And the bruise it just wont go away
So she sits and she waits with her mother and dad And flips through an old magazine 'Til the nurse with a smile stands at the door And says "Will you please come with me?"
Sara Beth is scared to death Cause the doctor just told her the news Between the red cells and white Something's not right But we're gonna take care of you
Six chances in ten it wont come back again With the therapy we're gonna try It's just been approved it's the strongest there is I think we caught it in time Sara Beth closes her eyes
And she dreams she dancin' around and around Without any cares And her very first love Is holding her close And the soft wind is blowing her hair
Sara Beth is scared to death as she sits holding her mom "It would be a mistake For someone to take A girl with no hair to the prom"
For just this morning right there on her pillow Was the cruelest of any surprise She cried when she gathered it all in her hands The proof that she couldn't deny Sara Beth closes her eyes
And she dreams she dancin' around and around With out any cares And her very first love Was holding her close And the soft wind was blowing her hair
It's quarter to seven That boy's at the door And her daddy ushers him in When he takes off his cap they all start to cry Cause this morning where his hair had been Softly she touches just skin
And they go dancin' around and around Without any cares And her very first true love Was holding her close And for a moment she isn't scared
"Never forget that your pain means nothing to a WS." ~Mulan
"An ethical man knows it is wrong to cheat on his wife. A moral man will not actually do it." ~ Ducky
WS: They are who they are.
When an eel lunges out And it bites off your snout Thats a moray ~DS

Following are the lyrics to Jackson Browne's "Linda Paloma" (Pretty Dove).
At the moment the music began And you heard the guitar player starting to sing You were filled with the beauty that ran Through what you were imagining Dreaming of scenes from those songs of love I was the endless sky And you were my Mexican dove
Now the music that played in your ears Grows a little bit fainter each day And you find yourself looking through tears At the love you feel slipping away Though it's not the kind Of love you might hope to find If tears could release the heart From the shadows preferred by the mind
Like a wind that comes up in the night Caressing your face while you sleep Love will fill your eyes with the sight Of a world you can't hope to keep Dreaming on after that moment's gone The light in your lover's eyes Disappears with the light of the dawn
But the morning brings Strength to your restless wings And some other lover sings To the sun's bright corona I know all about these things Linda Paloma Fly away Linda Paloma
