One song in particular really touched me.
First let me give you the backdrop:
A young guy named Princeton, fresh out of college and unemployed, is sure he's special and destined for some kind of greatness. He's just not sure what his life purpose is yet.
He meets a girl named Kate - an assistant schoolteacher who would like to find a mate, they fall in like, and end up spending a night together. Soon after he freaks out that she's distracting him from his life purpose, and breaks up with her.
And then she sings this song full of such heart and truth: There's a Fine Line Between Love and a Waste of Your Time. Ain't that the truth.

Lyrics
There's a fine, fine line between a lover and a friend;
There's a fine, fine line between reality and pretend;
And you never know 'til you reach the top if it was worth the uphill climb.
There's a fine, fine line between love
And a waste of time.
There's a fine, fine line between a fairy tale and a lie;
And there's a fine, fine line between "You're wonderful" and "Goodbye."
I guess if someone doesn't love you back it isn't such a crime,
But there's a fine, fine line between love
And a waste of your time.
And I don't have the time to waste on you anymore.
I don't think that you even know what you're looking for.
For my own sanity, I've got to close the door
And walk away...
Oh...
There's a fine, fine line between together and not
And there's a fine, fine line between what you wanted and what you got.
You gotta go after the things you want while you're still in your prime...
There's a fine, fine line between love
And a waste of time.
