Having only been in two committed relationships throughout my life, I don't have much experience with break-up songs. I did play an Etta James CD to death as I wrestled with leaving my first husband but I don't think that really counts.
If there ever were such a thing as an "empty-nest song" (and I think there should be as there's a lot about it that feels like a break-up), this would be mine.
Much thanks to Ms. Prufrock for introducing me to the amazing Ben Harper's talents.

Oh, you poor thing. Take care of yourself, dear.
I love that song - that whole album. And does it ever describe my week to me.
I'm sitting here all teary listening to this song with your slant on it, and I have 16 years until mine goes away to college. Sigh.
My brother is a HUGE Ben Harper fan, and if he knew I created a convert he would be most pleased with me!
Wow! Definitely hit the nail on the head. Thanks for posting that. And again...sending big hugs your way.
you are hurting far more than I thought. I am so sorry for your pain.
