Put up a line or two from a song for people to guess.

For example:

Is there anybody out there trying to get through?
My eyes are so cloudy I cant see you

@Iggi999

There are so many miserable 70s love songs that I think are great Grin Here's one from 1979:

You left in the rain without closing the door
I didn't stand in your way
Now I miss you more than I missed you before,
Where I'll find comfort, God knows

Just when I needed you most.

Don't know who sang it

Try this one then Prosecco (same year, equally miserable Smile

And now I look down from your window
To see a young man across the street
He looks something like me
And he's walking with his head down to the ground
