Songs About Losing a Good Friend

We often search for songs about losing a good friend because we cannot cope with reality or are so immersed in the past that it keeps coming to us all the time.

Sometimes death sets us apart. Sometimes it’s our egos. Sometimes, life happens.

Good friends are like stars. You don’t always see them, but you know they’re always there.” — Unknown

However, sometimes the pain is unbearable. To cope with pain, songs are the best way to escape reality and find time to heal. Remember, “Music is a great healer. Begin and end your day with music.” 

Nonetheless, in the words of Music Maestros – Elton John, “Music has healing power. It has the ability to take people out of themselves for a few hours.”

Another quote on music which helps you healing from losing a good friend is, “One good thing about music, when it hits you, you feel no pain.” Bob Marley 

What breaks us inside of losing a good friend in life is we fail to fathom the reality. Friends are the people who we choose in life – and hardly think of losing them. The bond we share with them through thick and thin weaves us together in an inseparable bond. However, nothing is stronger than the Time.

Any relationship can fall apart from one simple conflict. When the time comes, it’s to let go of people, no matter how many times you stayed at each other’s homes, or spent vacations, or did many things for the first time together.

We teach IELTS to students from ESL countries. Over the years, we have seen students throwing up their dreams when their good friends left them or stopped talking to them. It would take a toll on their progress and would spoil their preparation days. A normal thing for any young adult.

Let’s see great songs about losing a good friend which can cheer you up and make you a strong person.

  • You Raise me Up – Josh Groban 

  • See you Again – Wiz Khalifa 

The song is from the 7th Installment of Fast and Furious and is a tribute to Paul Walker after his tragic demise in an accident before the release of the movie.

  • Elijah Woods – Losing a Friend

  • One Day in Your Life – Michael Jackson 

 

  • Let Her Go – Passenger 

 

Remember always... Nothing is permanent in life. No even YOU! Don’t be so involved in your relations that they take away your sanity and leave you destroyed. 

While listening to songs about losing a good friend can heal you for a while or may help you completely overcome the void, changing your perspective towards life is refreshing.

We are temporary beings on the Planet Earth. Once the time is up, all have to go. Therefore, if some old good or best friends leave you while alive or death takes him away, think of your limited time over here, too.
