Goodbye My Lover

[Skits]

can anyone tell me what this song is about and i don't mean the obvious!! i read somewhere that most of james songs are written from personal experience. you're beautiful is about when he seen his ex girlfriend for the first time with her new boyfriend on the tube. :searchme:

[.:SpIcYsPy:.]

Is it really from personal experinces? Cool... never knew that lol.

[sheilamarie]

i love the song it one of my faves at the moment

[Chloe O'brien]

i think its about someone dying

[Kim]

Maybe it's one of the exeptions then, or when he split with a girlfriend.

[bubblegum_fairy]

I don't know, but it makes me feel sad

[Johnny Allen]

yeah I think it's one of his finest songs.

[Bree]

im mad about this song

[angelblue]

Oh god that songs has me in knots i am always crying at that song okay i admit it i am a sucker for slushy love songs :crying:

My interpertation of that song in my own opinion is someone leaving and you never see them again for example someone dying or something like a relationship finishing :(

[hayley]

I thought it was about someone dying because it is quite sad. And i also heard on the radio that it is the top song to be played at funerals at the moment.

I love it its a great song. I loved it before it was released, its the best song on the album

These are the lyrics
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.

It sounds like a break up to me

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.

It sounds like its about someone dying to me, i can see why its one of the top funeral songs.
