"House With No Door" by Van der Graaf Generator moves me to tears,
especially the line "it doesn't seem right when there's that little
dark figure running - won't somebody help me?".

There are two songs that can make me cry. Neither are prog but I'm
going to mention them anyway. "Tank Park Salute" by Billy Bragg and
especially "My young man" by Kate Rusby.
These are the lyrics -
My young man wears a frown
With his eyes all closed and his head bowed down,
My young man never sleeps.
The rain it falls upon his back
The dust before his eyes is black,
Oft the times, oft the times my young man weeps.
My young man wears a coat,
Once, long ago, a bonnie coat
Which my young man wore with pride.
Now I dress the coat all on his back,
For love for him I will not lack,
But to see it now, that collier’s coat, I can’t abide.
My young man, where’s he gone?
Once in his eyes my whole world shone
Now my young man he looks away.
Man and wife we used to be
Now he’s like a child upon my knee
And in my arms I help my young man through the day.
A young girl no more am I
But I shall not weep and I will not cry,
For my young man needs me still.
If someone’s watching up above
You’ll see how much my dear I love,
So leave him here, I need him now and always will.
Oh if someone’s watching up above
You’ll see how much my dear I love,
And If he must go, let your best angels keep him well."
It's a beautiful song about Kate's grandmother who nursed her husband through emphsyma.

Some ECM jazz can do that to me - Jan Garbarek, Oregon, Ketil Bjornstad...

House with no door is very emotive indeed - and I'm not even all that keen on VdGG (Hammill, of course, is excellent!). I think I've cried listening to Childhood's End? before

A another one: Cadence and Cascade from King Crimson, it mean a lot for me.

Beethoven's Sixth makes my eyes go all dewy. Superb emotional symphony. Also good for air conducting

I don't tend to cry hearing music... Not sure if that's a good thing.
I almost cried when I heard a very good classical guitar version of Green Sleeves.

Yes, many times.
For example :
What should he do ? should have been a father
but he never reached the age of twenty
what a waste ! Army dreamers.
Interesting so much Israelis confess here about crying. What happened to the Israeli macho ?
