Every Breath You Take ("since you've gone I've been lost without a trace, I dream at night, I can only see your face, I look around, but it's you I can't replace, I feel so cold and I long for your embrace, ..." makes me think of both of them at the same time) - The Police
Come Away With Me - Norah Jones
(corny as hell, but I'm just gonna say it) Time in a Bottle - Jim Croce
I'll Have to Say 'I Love You' in a Song - Jim Croce
If You Could Read My Mind - Gordon Lightfoot
Annie's Song - John Denver
Victoria, I love that you have "In Your Eyes." This line in particular gets me every time: "I see the doorway of a thousand churches, the resolution of all the fruitless searches...")
Another Peter Gabriel song that makes me cry thinking of Ennis and Jack lately is "Here Comes The Flood."
When the night shows, the signals grow on radios
All the strange things that come and go as early warnings
Stranded starfish have no place to hide
Still waiting for that swollen Easter' tide
There's no point in direction, we cannot even choose a side.
Took the old track, the hollow shoulder across the waters
On the tall cliffs, they were getting older, sons and daughters
The jaded Underworld was riding high
Waves of steel held metal at the sky
And as the nail sunk in the cloud, the rain was warm and soaked the crowd.
Lord, here comes The Flood.
We will say good-bye to flesh and blood.
If again, the seas are silent and any still alive
It'll be those who gave their island to survive.
Drink up, dreamers. You're running dry.
When The Flood calls, you have no home, you have no walls
In that thunder crash you're a thousand miles within a flash
Don't be afraid to cry at what you see
The actor's gone - there's only you and me
And if we break before the dawn, they'll use up what we used to be.

Don't know if I'm crying more for them or for me, come to think of it.
