    James Blunt really shows emotion with all his songs. His 1st album, Back to Bedlam really is a masterpiece.

      Absolutely, I think it's become a bit of a popular thing to dislike or make fun of him but Back to Bedlam still remains one of the best debut albums to ever exist. Not a bad song on the album. Just listen and let it take you away.

    I have James Blunts Greatest Hits and there's a "note" about each song so I just read that. I'm just gonna quote how he explained it..."The pain of never seeing someone again who has died is crushing, but the pain of not being able to be with someone who is still alive eats at you, and that is where the song came from.". I hope that helps. He also recorded this very song in Carrie Fishers bathroom!

  • @youngthing12

    This song is about a girl Blunt dated, but he wrote it years after the relationship ended. When he appeared on the UK show Songbook, Blunt explained: "I guess it's a realization that you'll never be with someone, but the frustration that they are still alive and out there in the world. It can be an incredibly painful idea - I sat with the song for quite a long time. But for me, it's probably my most personal song. Whereas 'You're Beautiful' is about a moment, one second in time of passing that person, the song 'Goodbye My Lover' is about a lifetime's worth of emotion, the fact that that relationship is over, and that life continues. And yeah, it's the most personal song on Back To Bedlam 👍🏻🤩🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

    Live versions of this are even more emotional, especially the one at the Oxford Union. I agree it's a break up song but a lot of people at the time had it played at funerals so most of the sentiment works for that too.

      My mom was a huge James Blunt fan when he came out in America. She bought this album and played it so much. She's still here but this song reminds me of my mom. Like it reminds me of her as my protector, as my rock. Without her I will be lost. I definitely see this song as not just being about break ups.

    The emotion he sings this with live is intense. I haven't seen one live performance where he doesn't get teary eyed. He won't even talk about the real meaning. He always gives some random BS reply. No one sings with that much emotion without it being personal.

    It's not a farewell to someone who's dying. It's a breakup song. There are a number of references to the fact that he'll still be there for her if she cares. As she moves on, he asks her to remember him and what they used to be to each other. He'd spend a lifetime with her. He knows her fears and she knows his - all in the present tense. This is definitely not a requiem for a person but a relationship.

    Don't think il ever really love anyone as much as I do her

    This hits hard. I've had a lady who was a part of my life. A part of my life after a long time relationship and divorce. She was truly my friend and eased my pain. For whatever the reasons, we were never able to connect the way that retrospectively, we should have... I'm in another relationship now. With being in a serious relationship I've had to say basically what James Blunt is saying here.

    Sorry guys but I don't agree with your viewpoint. I think it's a breakup song, not a farewell to someone who passed away. True that the story-telling is a bit misleading. You should probably watch the music video of this song. It's clear that it's a separation there. Love your reactions. Peace.

      Its clearly 10000% about someone passing away. All you have to do is watch the original video and you'll see the cinematography when it shows the woman she's bathed in warm lights on the bed and when it switches to him he is in dark lighting.
      If that's not enough for you here's more. There's a line that says "and i will bare my soul in time, when I'm kneeling at your feet that's him visiting her grave.
      On his greatest hits album he says about the song that it was how you deal with losing someone you love through death.
