I had heard this song probably hundreds of times before I really listened to it. My cousin amazingly agreed to come up to Portland and help me move my car and belongings home to the Bay Area before I moved to - you guessed it - Boston to start a new job.
As we began our journey South in the car, we were listening to gloomy songs to go with the rainy, ridiculously overcast Oregon winter weather. This song came on and my cousin started crying. At the time I didn't feel very emotional about my move; I was actually really excited to be starting a new job and a new life.
Whenever this song comes on now, however, I am brought right back to that car ride. And now that I am fully aware of how gloomy the Boston weather is and how far away from my family I am, it makes me tear up, too.
