As winter ends ( tomorrow), what song/music brings you to tears

even after you just start to hear it? It's ok... Sad music is cathartic and tomorrow is SPRING!

Two, immediately come to mind for me:
Angel-Sarah McLaughlan



and of course the music of many a National trauma, including JFK's funeral, 911, and of course, the movie, Platoon:

Adagio for Strings--Barber

A lot of current tv commercials affect me that way too.

When one retells
a dream once drempt
one cannot tell all
for dreams cannot be revealed

I drempt
a dream of love,
with a window, a flower,
a fountain and a friend,
and nothing more...
a light, and nothing else...
and love blossomed there

Love,
a love that I keep secret
in a dream I can't reveal
but I feel more strongly each day

Love,
I have a love well hidden
in a dream I can't express
and will keep within me always.
