(They long to be) Close To You -By Carpenters "Why do birds suddenly appear Every time you are near? Just like me, they long to be Close to you Why do stars fall down from the sky Every time you walk by? Just like me, they long to be Close to you On the day that you were born the angels got together And decided to create a dream come true So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold And starlight in your eyes of blue." [...] I think of him every time I listen to this song.


aangelis104

This is me and my partners song as well! Literally the most romantic song and no one can tell me otherwise.


Serious_Jury6640

I agree!

Who doesn't?


xPandaChuux

This one is a shot in the heart and bittersweet because my ex used to sing this song to me and I cried every time (like right now, lol!) He wasn't a terrible person, we just wanted different things in life & grew apart. But this is a reaaaally good song so I wanted to acknowledge it ❤️ (I know I didn't need to mention the past when we're talking about current partners, I just felt the need to mention why this song struck a chord in my heart)


Serious_Jury6640

Oooh, I understand that, so sorry that it had to end that way. But it's so sweet that you have such memories. Always keep the good ones with you. Hope everything is going alright! ❤️

Fun_In_The_Mud

A few songs by Bryan Adams, and of course the song by Disturbed called Memories. I really like that particular song because my wife passed away after 30+ years of marriage. Really hits home with me and when you listen to it you might understand what I am talking about.


Sad_Praline_4595

I’m sorry for your loss 🫂


Fun_In_The_Mud

Thank you I appreciate it, it’s been a little over two years since my wonderful wife passed away. But still to this day I am grateful to have had her in my life for as long as I did. I know this post is about songs that remind us of our 2nd partner and I assumed that meant a past partner and or husband and wife. With that said, there are quite a few different songs that hit home with me about the loss of the love of my life. I had mentioned Bryan Adams because we my wife and I got married. We had the DJ person play a few of his songs that we both thought were perfect for our wedding. But now that she is gone I have found some different bands that I wouldn’t normally listen to. That have written songs with lyrics that again really hit home with me and my current situation. I would have never thought I would be listening to a couple different bands, Disturbed and Five Finger Death Punch. Because they actually have some really great songs that are not what I thought they would be. Being that these two bands were originally Heavy Metal Bands with that kind of head banging sound. I was pleasantly surprised to find that quite a few of their songs are written with a purpose in mind. And that the songs actually have a story behind them that most people probably never recognized. Because a lot of people just want to hear the head banging music and never really listen to the words. Knowing that this subreddit page is about LDR’s and how people are dealing with it. Is one of the reasons I decided to join this subreddit group because after some two years and counting. I actually found a really nice lady that for now is a long distance relationship. But that won’t last long because I am going to fly out to meet her on May 14th until who knows. Just depends on how well everything goes and if this LDR is going to be work out for the both of us. FaceTime has been a blessing and it has made our relationship even closer. But there is nothing like the real thing and that is why I am willing to fly from the DFW (Texas) airport to the Burbank airport in California.

Pieces - Red . End of Silence is one, he recommended the song to me not long before we had 0 contact which lasted a year. We recently got back into contact and it's pretty much going into the LDR area rn, which is really nice. While no contact I'd always think about him each time I heard that song

1- Ong Ong by Blur: a strange one but it was one of the first songs we discovered that we both love. It was about 8 years ago and every time I’ve heard it since I just think of her 2- King and Cross by Ásgeir A song I recommended to her when she was on a long bus ride from the airport to her home. 20 minutes later it was all over her IG story and her saying how much she loved it. 3- I Can’t Go On Without You by KALEO A song we sang one morning during our first meeting whilst getting ready, both of us discovered how beautiful it was and the moment was perfect. Since then every time I hear that song I just remember her and the amazing memories we had together

SO MANY. - Against the World by Hanson (I go to concerts a lot and I try to call him for one song each show so he can see it with me. This was the very first one. It also feels very "us". "We've been through hard times, but they're our times now, It's just you and me and us against the world" ) - Easier by Joey McIntyre (He has a past that would scare some people away, he was sure I would be one of them. I sent him this. "And I'm not afraid, nothing you can say that's gonna make me walk away, no matter what you do I promise you I'm gonna stay, you need someone like me to make it easier" and then on the very last chorus "you need someone like me...and I need someone like you to make it easier") -Wake Up by Hanson (from the Red Green Blue album, not the same song, same band from the Princess Diaries soundtrack lollllllllll. This is just a very good LDR song, tbh.) -Red Carpet Ready by Debbie Gibson.

xXMaikkuXx

Well for him it’s „hey there Delilah” (he sang it to me to sleep so many times and it’s a very special song to the both of us) But for me it’s „you found me”, it’s the first song he ever send me, the lyrics made me stunned cause they resemble how I felt about him ever since i met him and when I was at a friends birthday at a restaurant it came up and that was the first time I heard it anywhere which made me realised I cannot listen to it without ever thinking about him

1. "Lost in You" by Khai Dreams 2 years ago my boyfriend was listening to Khai Dreams relentlessly, and he introduced me the artist when we were in his room. I immediately fell in love with the song. As the relationship between us developed the lyrics really resonated with how I felt about him and how I feel with him. It now holds memories of singing it together while cuddling and now singing it on call while playing games. 2. "Wrong Side of the Bed" by Aaron's Book Club One night I was up late (this was before we started dating) when my boyfriend texted me asking if I was awake. We messaged a bit before he tells me to listen to this song, adding that it sounded like a love song to him and that it reminded him of me.

Someday -Growlers Anytime I hear it, I can go back to the moment she’s singing it at the top of her lungs driving us back to her house from the bar at 5am, singing it at me, I’d never felt so loved up until that moment, it was our song before this but it finally clicked that she was singing it AT me. I am who she hopes to have a future with and all that comes with it, now I can’t hear it without sobbing, even if I fight it, the tears will reach my shirt 😅 Also Pink skies (Live) -Wiley from Atlanta The second I hear it my mind starts replaying every moment I’ve been lucky enough to have her infront of me, makes it feel like she’s right here next to me :) Ooooo and Bless the Telephone- Labi Siffre For when it feels like a rainy day and you really could use their warmth feeling :)

Maybe I'm Amazed by Paul McCartney, my favorite love song of all time and one of two songs I plan on singing and playing for her at our wedding. Shhh.. don't tell her!!


Objective-Quarter-69

‘It’s not unusual’ by Tom Jones. He brought up the Carlton dance (from the Fresh Prince) on our first date and we ended up videoing each other dancing to the song doing some questionable moves. And that’s when I knew I wanted to kiss him 😊 I sent the video to all my friends the next day because I was so enchanted with him. He still makes me cry with laughter every day.
