From Where You Are

This song hits really close to home with me, as it probably does with alot of people. I recently had to move away, and im in high school. I moved away from friends and people i considered family, people that i grew up with.

To me its about moving, missing somebody you love, it doesnt necessarily have to be about a girlfriend/boyfriend, it could be a best friend, anybody.

this song is amazing, gets me everytime

My sentiments right now...wonder if you miss me too :(

Maybe about someone that had died. Or a lover that has moved away.

Yeah, Gunnman, it hits me pretty hard as well. And that sucks about moving from your friends dude, I've been there. But here is why this song hits me.

Some of my closest friends have died. Over the course 2 years one died every 2 or 3 months. I consider my grandfather as a best friend and aunt also. So really 6 friends and 2 family members. But, this song pretty much puts the head on the nail of how I feel, and I'm pretty sure people who have been through similar things feel.

But in all reality they wrote this in a way that it could mean basically anything. It will vary from person to person, but to me....it just means that somebody is gone..and you know they can't come back no matter how bad you want them to.

This is a really great songs. It meaning is pretty obvious. It is about someone who has died and the person they left behind misses them.

I think the line "I miss all the little things, I never thought that they'd mean everything to me" is the most powerful and true line I have ever heard in a song. For the most part, what we miss about someone we have lost is not the big things, but rather all the little things that are no longer there and leave us feeling empty.

What makes this song great is how simple the meaning is, and how most everyone can relate one way or another to this song.

When I hear this song, I think of my parents. I lost them when I was younger. This song hits home.

"So far away from where you are These miles have torn us worlds apart And I miss you, yeah I miss you" -We are worlds apart...

"I'm standing underneath the stars And I wish you were here" -I'm in love with the stars. My dad bought my first telescope. He showed me where the big and little dippers were. Every time I look up at the night sky, I think of him and my big red telescope.

"I miss the years that were erased" -I wish I would have had more years to share with them

"I miss the way the sunshine would light up your face" -We always made impromptu trips to the beach. My parents loved it with a passion. My mom loved to fish. She always came back with a cooler of fish, and I always came back with a sunburn.

"I miss all the little things" -...like laying on my mom's lap watching tv or playing Frisbee outside with my dad

"I never thought that they'd mean everything to me" -You don't know what you have until it's gone

"Yeah I miss you And I wish you were here" -Understatement of the year

This song is so gorgeous.

I really love this song because i can relate to it in two different ways. For one, i'm in love with this guy that lives almost two thousand miles away..and i never get to see him. And a while ago i went through a bad breakup. It's been almost a year..but i can't forget him. Whether it's missing someone who's died..missing a boyfriend/girlfriend, or missing someone far away..anyone can relate to it.

This song was used in the Allstate insurance commercials promoting safe teen driving. Their goal is preventing teen casualties due to negligence or drunk driving.

This song is about life changing events in a person's life, Wheather it be in general or through death, Technically its about death and missing that person, but this song for me a strong meaning about how things have changed from growing up to the way I have become these days.. I miss all of the little things that have come to mean the most, And just thinking about Summer nights under the stars with that special someone, Man this song has really been able to make me reflect on little special moments that I have experienced.. Lifehouse is a powerful band, This is another one of the songs that has made me think..

By the way, The All-State commercial is so sad :(
