Melancholy
Melancholy waits in the shadows. It longs to capture your emotions. It makes you think of days gone by, of hurt and loss, of things that could have been. It can be sad, it can be painful, but it forces you to focus on the past and to examine what it meant to you.
For your melancholy moods , I present seven songs that will lure you out of the shadows into your emotions, and give you pause to think about the progress of your life.
