Lost my partner of 32years she was my soul mate, best friend & love of my life... this was one of her favorite songs.. played it at her funeral... miss her so much everyday but will cuddle & hold her hand again one day.. ⚘💜🕆

played this at my wife's funeral ,I still hold her hand when I sleep

Anyone with a broken heart will be drawn in by this beautiful masterpiece. Amazing. Thank you James.

When music was more about lyrics, emotion and originality!

James Blunt puts his heart and soul into every song he sings❤

Heute musste ich meinen kleinen Zinto erlösen von seinem Leiden. Ein 9monatiges Streunerkitten, so cute, so gentle, so lovely. Autoimmundefekt. Todttraurig Goodbye my lover Du schläfst jetzt unter Waldrebe, Haselnuss und immergrüner Berberitze. Schön beschattet kühl im Sommer und frostfrei auch an den kältesten Tagen im Winter. Miss you. Love you. Farewell my little baby

It's almost 13 years old, yet still one of our generation's most iconic song's.

He probably performed this song a million times. It's amazing how he's still able to be emotional every time. True artist.

I lost my wife in jan 2018 suddenly after 14yrs together...the lyric "and I still hold your hand in mine when i'm asleep" 💔💔💔💔💔

I'm listening to this song and I am balling my eyes out. .y husband passed away last year on July 18th 22. This song is beautiful . James Blunt is amazing. It's almost therapeutic. He's an amazing artist and he touches my soul. God has blessed him with an amazing gift and I am so grateful that he is sharing his gift with the world. Thank you Jesus/ God and James Blunt! ❤

Anyone who has had it and lost it gets this song....its perfect x

8 years later and it doesn't matter who i'm with, she remains in the back of my mind. goodbye my lover

I cannot find words that feel my pain until I hear James. He is special. Wife of 54 years passing beside me now as I ride this out. Parkinson’s Disease.

In my opinion this is one of the best songs ever written.

I divorced my wife after she cheated. I could never forgive. The pain was too much for me to take even after 4 of trying to forgive I couldn't anymore. It broke me. This song always hits right in my core and it breaks me too. I just heard it again tonite and it all came crashing down on me. Why Can't I Forgive?????😢😢

I lost my sister, Father of my children, best friend and my son in 3 years. This song is absolutely beautiful and touches your soul ❤

here in 2021? you can see how much this song affects him! being moved by his own song, it means that much to him he's on the verge of tears its so sad to watch :(

The pain in his voice is heart breaking😢😢

2024 Anyone?

It's not just his beautiful voice, and skill as a pianist, that touches your heart when watching this. This is one of the most authentic, moving and emotive performances ever. Just incredible!

Lost my father, my best friend and two of my sweet dogs in one year. Songs like this help me hold the love. Thanks James 👍❤️

My wife is terminal with cancer and she sent me this song wow..

2024 anybody??🤝😊💯

This is my favorite version of this wonderful song by James Blunt. He lives the lyrics, and we live it with him. No need for a powerful voice, or to scream or shout the words, James knows how to tell the story in the most heartfelt way, he is so talented, we feel his passion, and his pain. I think it must resonate with many of us who have lost a loved one in one way or another. Just beautiful James!

Did I disappoint you or let you down? Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown? 'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun, Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won. So I took what's mine by eternal right. Took your soul out into the night. It may be over but it won't stop there, I am here for you if you'd only care. You touched my heart you touched my soul. You changed my life and all my goals. And love is blind and that I knew when, My heart was blinded by you. I've kissed your lips and held your head. Shared your dreams and shared your bed. I know you well, I know your smell. I've been addicted to you. Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me. I am a dreamer but when I wake, You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take. And as you move on, remember me, Remember us and all we used to be I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile. I've watched you sleeping for a while. I'd be the father of your child. I'd spend a lifetime with you. I know your fears and you know mine. We've had our doubts but now we're fine, And I love you, I swear that's true. I cannot live without you. Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me. And I still hold your hand in mine. In mine when I'm asleep. And I will bear my soul in time, When I'm kneeling at your feet. Goodbye my lover. Goodbye my friend. You have been the one. You have been the one for me. I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow. I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow. 54

It doesn't seem to matter how many times I listen to this, every time, I just instantly burst into tears with this one.

It's been 14 years, I can feel emotion of this song. James Blunt is legend!

I remember my girlfriend who passed away 3 years ago...he make me feel like I have her now...she gone forever but she will always remain in my heart

It's hard to love and even harder to live without the one you love.

You don't need 10 albums to be recognised all over the world! You only need his voice and this message!

Sweet Jeesus.. my thoughts manifest everytime i wreck my bike.. this man is an artist

Played this at my wife's funeral. Miss you babe so much.

I still cry every time I hear this song and I still get chills

this beautiful masterpiece kept alive until today has got to be the most beautiful iconic move ever which should be passed to the younger generation

I lost my partner, friend, lover, of nearly 38 years (married for 32) a few months ago. There are no words to express the grief I feel. This song provides some of those words. Thank you for sharing your talent and passion. It helps us heal.

He gets choked up on every performance of this . That is a real artist who feels his music.

Lost my old cat today. And even if it’s a cat, that song came up in my grief. I miss him so much. Goodbye my friend

My husband committed suicide and I was blind sided by his death…. I played this at his funeral as a send off… i will never forget him…. As too his wishes…, nothing will ever replace what we had… He was my everything… I never thought I could love that hard again…. I have remarried 10 years on… goodbye my lover….

I miss my husband so much..2 years on and I don't know how I am even here..I just wish he didn't go.. heaven is so lucky

Still here in 2020 heartbroken every time I hear this song!!

Most realest, heartfelt and on-point live performance ever

Mr Blunt you are a very talented man . God bless you

Who Is Here In 2023 to listen to this beautiful song?

7 years and still miss her. Not sure if I'll ever find that comfort, trust, love ever again.

Seriously think this song is one of the most beautiful songs ever written, gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it .

What a absolute beautiful writer he is...always sings from the depths...I know it popular to hate on James blunt but he is a absolute master if dragging you into his emotions

I lost the only person too touch my soul a few years ago never a moment gos by when she doesn’t come into my thoughts 💭 you know who you are and I’ll love you always ❤xxxc

Still watching in 2019

You know your heart broken when you start listening to this kind of song 💔😔

miss you my love everyday and will love you forever

Coming here for the third time in 10 years for another heartbreak. Saying goodbye to my husband. Re-listening to this song, I remember that this will pass. It passed before, and it will once more. Damn, why does it hurt so much every single time?

I'm watching this and my husband dying from emphysema and asthma. On our third date I told him we'd be together 32 yrs we celebrated 30 yrs in Dec. I wish there was something I could do. I've watch so many family member go this way. He's my world my everything. He's my lover and my friend. When my mom passed he was the shoulder I cried on. He's the half that makes me whole. I seriously believe when he passes I will die of a broken heart. I will play this at his funeral.

Not many of todays artists can sing live! Never mind sing this good live! he is one of the best live performers out there today!

Rips me raw. Met n deeply loved a man as he did me for many yrs. his insecurities, inability to remain true to self separated us. Yrs later I still fully believe we are supposed to be together..twinflames. my soul aches for him. We still love ea other deeply but life circumstances separate us. I pray the holy creator opens the doors for a reunion.

My love... he was that first sight first love. He had an blood clot in his heart burst as he slept... laid dead in his chair for hours before he was found. God bless you love

I’m 55 now and I have given up on love ( my fault no one else to blame ) . I listen to this song often , it helps me feel , it helps me cry . Only then I know I still have a heart and maybe one day I’ll love again 😞

No words. I've watched this video a thousand times and I still love how he cries at 2:10/14 and can't help it. Love sucks..

What a song so powerful ❤

I can’t believe he hated his own voice. We’re all our own worst enemy. Thanks James for easing so many painful memories with ur amazing voice and songs. We love u in Canada!

2023 it never gets old and I hope and my partner discovers this song when I am gone. I wish my Lord not make it the other way around. Aameen.

Six years since she passed at the young age of 40 with three boys who lost there mum .. i live for the boys but im yet to find My purpose or to fill the void .. love can be such a wonderful part of life .. but know one told me it would be this hard .

I miss the love of my life. I fully relate to this song and it makes me cry every time thinking how I’ve lost my lover,soulmate my best friend

I'm sorry love.I tried so many times.Seems it wasn't enough.Thank you for making me better person.Wish you the best

I'm not heartbroken or anything. But Mr Blunt manages to make me feel what he really felt while writing this master piece. Legendary song indeed

Amazing. Very underrated singer songwriter... brilliant

Did I disappoint you or let you down? Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown? 'Cause I saw the end, before we'd begun Yes, I saw you were blind and I knew I had won So I took what's mine by eternal right Took your soul out into the night It may be over but it won't stop there I am here for you if you'd only care You touched my heart, you touched my soul Changed my life and all my goals And love is blind, and that I knew when My heart was blinded by you I've kissed your lips and held your head Shared your dreams and shared your bed I know you well, I know your smell I've been addicted to you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I am a dreamer and when I wake You can't break my spirit, it's my dreams you take And as you move on, remember me Remember us and all we used to be I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile I've watched you sleeping for a while I'd be the father of your child I'd spend a lifetime with you I know your fears and you know mine We've had our doubts but now we're fine And I love you, I swear that's true I cannot live without you Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me And I still hold your hand in mine In mine when I'm asleep And I will bear my soul in time When I'm kneeling at your feet Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me Goodbye my lover Goodbye my friend You have been the one You have been the one for me I'm so hollow baby I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow I'm so hollow baby I'm so hollow I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow Source: Musixmatch

14 years ago. People were watching and listening to the artist, not recording to the phone. There were beautiful times.

My soulmate died 2020 he was 46 when he passed and I was with him 25 years and we have 3 beautiful children together they have saved my life even though there grown, that's why I open my eyes for are children,I miss you so much bensxx

This song leaves footprints on my soul.

I'm from Russia and I don't speak English at all,but I'm absolutely at the mercy of this music and these enchanting words...

My son-who is almost 30 now- was a goofy 13 year old, with a decent voice. One day as I sat in the kitchen he came in cradling an empty ketchup bottle in his hands and sang a beautiful rendition of this song as he stood over the garbage can, I still see that goofy kid in my head whenever I hear this song. ❤ "So hollow" 😂

He's managed to speak for so many, from his own experience. Fantastic song.

I have lived this. He is no any longer for me. Good bye my Lover, my Angel. You were the man of my life, if you recognise you.

She was a student at Queens and I'd met her in high school. My first love and the cut was so deep. Passion and the meeting of hearts...bodies mingled and winter mornings, families that blessed us and I screwed it up. You don't get a second chance. You can't go back because time moves in just one direction and I moved away from her. I said "For me It's over" but it never was. No finer heart replaced her. No prettier face woke me at dawn. I became an itinerant woodsman for a long time until Jesus hit me and we made a deal, Him and I. You see, He's the origin of love and the love we have at first, the one that follows you through life, was the one He meant you to have. I searched for solutions in the forests of Canada but they weren't there, not for a broken heart. Not for a fool snowshoeing through the bush in the bitter cold. Her smile and voice, and the perfumed letters she sent me in the bushcamps on the treeline, the shirts she sewed me still hang in my closet 45 years later, a letter she hand wrote because they did that back then; all are echoes down the long tunnel of time and life to remind me of her. My defenses were up Mountains of stone Cold to the world You came like shock A long green loch Piercing me like a sharpened rod Filling my veins with the skirl of the pipes Echoing in empty valleys Filling the darkness I want to kiss the long and misty surface of you Reveling in the feeling Of finally, anything The current beneath the black surface of your eyes Pulls me down into your wet warmth Tendrils of you curl about me I spin to run and see the sun Bursting about you Silhouettes of you dance in the glades My dreams of you are shards of shattered glass Falling in brilliant light The long green world through which I move Is wet beneath my feet I walk alone Between the mountains of stone Half way to the snow line -because you see, young men write poetry about the lost loves of their lives. We as men, like to think that a broken heart, even if self-induced, is a trivial matter, but it isn't. Christ addresses the broken hearted. He knows the pain of the effects of our foolishness. Oh Valerie, how I wish I'd never said it's over Those few words condemned me to being a woodsman and a rover I guess by now I should have had children and a home someone to take these calloused hands so I wouldn't be alone but the black spruce forests called me to join their shadowed ballads Of raven calls and waterfalls and the swift flight of the mallards with the scent of damp canvas in the morning And the blue of woodsmoke rising My eyes scan the limits of the clouds on the horizon I pack my things and launch myself Between the living and the dying I shouldn't have turned away from you It was foolish to have stopped trying but the wild geese are calling now and a spruce grouse bursts from cover Once I looked into your eyes and said, "it's over."

God he’s beautiful! I told my husband that when I pass away that this is my song to him. Assuming I go first as I am 4 years older than him. I know it’s more of a break up song but it’s also a final goodbye.

These are the most heartfelt lyrics of a song I have ever heard. Thank you so much for your beautiful music James!

WOW... balling my eyes out. First time I’ve ever heard this song and I’m a complete mess... this hit me so hard.. reminds me of my first true love at age 16.. he’s been in and out of my life for over 30 years but we could never seem to make it work. I recently had to walk away from him.. this time it’s for good. forever... I realize we weren’t right for each other. The person he is, is not the person I held onto in my hopes and dreams and he was entirely too toxic. So I had to not just say goodbye to the reality of him but the dreams I held onto for more than 3 decades.
