Sweet Old World - Lucinda Williams
see what you lost when you left this world
this sweet old world
what you lost when you left this world
this sweet old world
the breath from your own lips
the touch of fingertips
a sweet and tender kiss
the sound of a midnight train
wearing someone's ring
someone calling your name
somebody so warm cradled in your arm
didn't you think you were worth anything
see what you lost when you left this world
this sweet old world
what you lost when you left this world
this sweet old world
millions of us in love
promises made good
your own flesh and blood
looking for some truth
dancing with no shoes
the beat, the rhythm, the blues
the pounding of your heart's drum
together with another one
didn't you think anyone loved you
see what you lost when you left this world
this sweet old world
what you lost when you left this world
this sweet old world
also sung by Emmylou Harris
@freshflower4 Very much so. I suffer from depression and have most of my life. This is a fine song. The tears are part of life.

I wish all of the people contemplating ending their life could hear this song. It is too beautiful not to be moved by it.
