When You're Gone


I don't know about you,
but
some songs, whether
their lyrics
or
their melodies
are just so powerful
that
for no reason at all
they make your heart hurt
your eyes water
and
for some sadistic reason,
they make you
listen
to it over
and over
again.

For the longest time I listened to this song... Now I feel stupid because of all the time and emotional resources that I had wasted on that one scumbag... When you're gone indeed...

I'm sorry this song has negative emotional baggage for you, Jules.

I only today really only have begun to listen to and appreciate its beauty and despite the fact that both you and I can relate to this song, it doesn't make the song any less beautiful.

Just painful.
