Well, here's a super-famous song that doesn't make me cry now (*usually*), but I recall a night in my 20s when I realized I'd never be with someone I had hoped to, and I was just sobbing throughout the whole song. Sigh...sometimes it is hard to let go of the dream, isn't it, ribbons?

John Denver - Annie's Song:
