I remember listening to this when he left to be on his own... I longed for him..

Now he's back, and I still love the song, but can't listen to it without choking up.

The Dance by Garth Brooks gets me every time. I am friends with a widower who lost his wife and child. This is his song, too.

The first song that comes to mind is Fairytale of New York. It's that line, "I've built my dreams around you." It gets me every time.

How about you?

Kate Bush "This Womans' Work."
as previously suggested by @emjay10

and "Don't Give Up." also by Kate Bush featuring Peter Gabriel

"If you love me, really love me." by Edith Piaf

I've included a link to the original because I think the performance is so strong, it traverses the language barrier.
(ps; there is also a version in English by Piaf.)
