Sad, sad song. I want to cry every time I hear it.
What are your feelings about this song (besides grief)?

(6,212 posts)1. I feel the same as you about the song...
I can't imagine going through what prompted this song or what parents of the school victims are going through. Beautiful, sad song makes me cry.

And we tragically lost 17 children today.
Tears in Heaven seems quite appropriate to me.
