Songs about Missing Someone

Absence must make the heart grow fonder - or else there wouldn't be so many songs about it. Whether it's a relative, lost love, or good friend, these songs are about the emptiness that someone's absence can leave.

It's an uplifting tribute to human companionship while at the same time a bittersweet longing. Goes good with rainy days, Cabernet, and blue jeans. Everybody can identify at some point, because even the meanest troll among us once cared about somebody else.
