Neither one of us (wants to be the first to say goodbye) - Gladys Knight and the Pips. It is such a sad song about two people trying to make it work out between them but they know it never will. The part that really gets to me comes at the end when she sings "fairwell my love, goodbye" it sounds like her heart is breaking.

I love sad songs. There's soo many too. Right now the first one that comes to mind is "Sorry seems to be the hardest word" by Elton John.

Sometimes the song titles alone wont do, here are some lyrics to the songs I mentioned. First, A House by Doves:

it was a day like this and my house burnt down
and the walls were thin and they crashed to the ground
it was a day like this and my life unwound
you could've struck me a line and that's okay now
we could always put it together again
you could've told me a lie, and a lie so thin, so thin
now everything's clear

day after day and the life goes on
and I try to see the good in everyone
if I ever find myself here again
I'll give everything

 

[CaptainMellow]

Second, Make This Go On Forever by Snow Patrol:

Please don't let this turn into something it's not
I can only give you everything I've got
I can't be as sorry as you think I should
But I still love you more than anyone else could

All that I keep thinking throughout this whole flight
Is it could take my whole damn life to make this right
This splintered mast I'm holding on won't save me long
Because I know fine well that what I did was wrong

The last girl and the last reason to make this last for as long as I could
First kiss and the first time that I felt connected to anything
The weight of water, the way you told me to look past everything I had ever learned
The final word in the final sentence you ever uttered to me was love

We have got through so much worse than this before
What's so different this time that you can't ignore
You say it is much more than just my last mistake
And we should spend some time apart for both our sakes

And I don't know where to look
My words just break and melt
Please just save me from this darkness

 

[CaptainMellow]

Reaching for the knife yet? No? Well lets try song # 3. Queen Of The Air by Everclear:

There is a dream I used to have
My dream swallowed me whole
There is a bridge where I hate to go
That is where I first saw her
High on the bridge I seen her red hair shining
There is a girl I never knew
She was my Aunt Virginia
They said that she, she just disappeared
They said I look just like her
High on the bridge I seen her dancing, waving to me there
She smiled and raised her head
Then she took to the air
There is a dream I can't escape
My memories come back to me
There is a hell I can't escape
My memories come back to me
I heard the truth about it
Pictures and headlines hidden away
I heard the truth about my real mom
Jumping from the bridge that day
Now I know why ever since I was 3 years old
Been having the same nightmare
Now I know the truth about Virginia
Why she took to the air

 

[CaptainMellow]

And finally song # 4, Down Towards The Healing by Lovedrug:

I want to make you happy but I've fallen, I'm sorry
I thought my wings could hold me up with angels, not demons,
You don't know how cool you are to find the ways to love me without shame

I want my life to be red with trees and like Autumn,
I'd float away from evil and down towards the healing,
So sad now we have become the children trapped in the mazes
I'd give my soul to the one who has the courage to find me and free me

If I run I'll just become like all the faking lights
So let the thunders take me under and break my legs tonight

Let the thunders take me under and break my legs tonight
Let the thunders take me under and break my legs tonight

Hallelujah, I'm not breathing
Hallelujah

I want to make you happy
But I've fallen
I'm sorry

"She Thinks His Name Was John" by Reba McEntire. It's about AIDS.

[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K7_YkdiBAM"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_K7_YkdiBAM[/ame]

She can account for all of the men in her past
Where they are now, who they married, how many kids they have
She knew their backgrounds, family and friends
A few she even talks to now and then

But there is one she cant put her finger on
There is one who never leaves her thoughts
And she thinks his name was john

A chance meeting, a party a few years back
Broad shoulders and blue eyes, his hair was so black
He was a friend of a friend you could say
She let his smile just sweep her away
And in her heart she knew it was wrong
But too much wine and she left his bed at dawn
And she thinks his name was john

Now each day is one day thats left in her life
She wont know love, have a marriage or sing lullabies
She lays all alone and cries herself to sleep
cause she let a stranger kill her hopes and her dreams

And all her friends say what a pity what a loss
And in the end when she was barely hanging on
All she could say is she thinks his name was john
