James Blunt – Goodbye My Lover Lyrics 20 years ago
I heard a interview where he said the song was about the break up of a long term relationship.

To me this song is something different, following the death of my partner at the age of 30 in June last year this song has expressed everything I would want to say.

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 will remember him everyday of my life and this song will always remind me of the 10 beautiful years we spent together.

Sade – By Your Side Lyrics 20 years ago
On the 18th June 2005 my partner died following a massive heartattack, he was just 30 years old and we have been together 10 years. The day after his death I went for a meal with my family and When we got seated there was a speaker right next to our table and Id never heard the song that was playing before but I just burst into tears and couldnt control myself.

A few days later I turned the TV on to watch a little of Big Brother, it helped me to escape from everything. Unfortunately it wasnt on and I got Sex in the City instead. As I flicked it on I heard that same piece of music that was playing when I went to the Pub on Sunday. It didnt play for very long (long enough to get me crying!) but really wished I knew what it was.

Then the day before his funeral I was shopping for something to wear when something strange happened. I walked into a shoe shop, I was really fed up, we'd been shopping for at least 2 hours and I'd just about had enough. As I started to look around I stopped and playing in the shop was that same piece of music again.

"You think I’d leave your side baby, You know me better than that"

That was the only bit I heard, I was crying again and Mum took me out of the shop.

When I got home that night I searched the internet for those words and when I found the song I downloaded it. I was absolutely stunned. It was like eachtime I had heard the song it had been my sweetheart talking to me, everything in it was like he was singing to me. It had to have come from him. I had never heard the song before but to hear it 3 times in what has to have been the hardest week of my life, it made me realise he hadnt left me and would always be there for me.

Thank you for bringing me this beautiful song
