Miss You Songs: When Love Knows No Bounds

Sometimes a piece of music or a special song can put into words I miss you so much more easily and passionately than what can be said with the spoken word. Not always, but sometimes.

Songwriters have a knack of penning exactly what we wish to say, but what we cannot adequately convey. Their songs, or perhaps one particular song, translate the sadness of the moment and become a sweet reminder of times past.

The right song can touch the soul, spark the memories and relieve the pain. The ten here, some of which you may not have heard before, attempt to accomplish this.

Have you ever missed someone so much, it hurts? Many of us have.

    Some great songs shared here. Some of these really bring back memories and others sing from the heart what we so often cannot bring ourselves to speak. Music has always been my companion through tough times, as well as the good.

    We have been given a pass to visit and bless outside of our angel neighborhoods. We needed a bit of music from our Squidoo Music Connoisseur. You have been blessed by a visiting angel!

    Congratulations on your 90th lens...and you'll have that 100 before you know it! This is very nice, and brought back some musical memories for me. Right now, the ones I miss are my Mom and my sister, as I am fortunate to still have my other half. Thanks for sharing.

    Rich just as all those composers you are amazing at putting words to your thoughts. Beautiful selection of "Miss You" songs. I do miss someone

    Some of the songs displayed here are those that can touch the stone which stands for my heart and transform it into something more warmer than what I use to show. It's a very touching list of songs. Really.

    Rich- Your are so right about love songs being able to say what we can't often put into words ourselves. I remember a time of loss that I would shut out the world and listen to them, and allow myself to "feel" whatever came up...tears included. It was emotionally exhausting, but it was also therapeutic. You have a couple of the ones I used to listen to here, and even hearing them now can take me back in memory, although not with the intensity they did during my grieving.

    Yes, I definitely am missing someone very special, particularly this month which contained what would have been our 49th Anniversary! Music most especially can provide the words for feelings we cannot express in other ways. Thank you for your lovely list of 'Missing You' songs.
