      Man, that's the devil working so you stay bitter and sad. True power is in forgiving and moving on with an idea that "all happens for a reason". What happened to you happened so you can move on - to something better. Take care bro! Work on your mindset. Read a few books on personal development. Hope it will help.

      some guys seem sociopathic and can just walk away and move on easily and some men are much more emotional and it's very difficult for a long time.

    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!

I'm over her and moved on but every time I hear this my heart hurts and I'm right back into our world. I'll forever hold her hand in mine but I can't live life if I hold on so she's locked behind a wall I put up and I'll never break it down.

    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.

    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.

    This song hits home hard. After a 20 year relationship that ended 3 weeks ago. I'm broken, I don't know how to carry on anymore, I miss her. But know that I won't get her back. The relationship started when I was 19, so many memories. so much!!

    Last month I lost my brother to cancer, he was not only my brother but also my best friend! When I listen to this song I change the word lover for brother in the chorus (in my head when singing along) and feel a little closer to him! Loss is a part of life but it devastated you for a long period and takes time to heal....I love you brother and hope you are well wherever you are!

    The way he sings this song, I cry. This is so beautiful and it's my favorite song of his. I could listen to it over and over but watching him Sing it is something else, it breaks my heart.

    I come back to this performance all the time because everyone just sits quietly & listens. Who would dare to talk during the most brilliant performance I've ever witnessed in all of my life? 💔

    I love this song and the way James sings it. Someone said to me once "Pain Is The Measure Of Your Love". I thought about that for a few years. I think he meant "you hurt this much BECAUSE you LOVE so much MORE!", meaning I didn't cut myself off of my emotions so that I could always feel love. It is the price I chose to pay to preserve my ability to feel the good things in life. My thoughts.
