“Never Gone” by the Backstreet Boys
“Never Gone” by the Backstreet Boys
The things we did, the things we said
Keep comin’ back to me and make me smile again
You showed me how to face the truth
Everything that’s good in me I owe to you
Though the distance that’s between us
Now may seem to be too far
It will never separate us
Deep inside, I know you are
Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
Always close, every day
Every step along the way
Even though for now
We’ve got to say goodbye
I know you will be forever in my life
Never gone
No, no, no, no
I walk along these empty streets
There is not a second you’re not here with me
The love you gave, the grace you’ve shown
Will always give me strength and be my cornerstone
Somehow you found a way
To see the best I have in me
As long as time goes on
I swear to you that you will be
Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
Always close, every day
Every step along the way
Even though for now
We’ve got to say goodbye
I know you will be forever in my life
Never gone from me
If there’s one thing I believe
I will see you somewhere
Down the road again
Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
Always close, every day
Every step along the way
Even though for now
We’ve got to say goodbye
I know you will be forever in my life
Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
Always close, every day
Every step along the way
Never gone, never far
In my heart is where you are
A person’s loss is always overshadowed when we try and divert this sadness and hurt to something positive. And this positivity is erased when we make positive actions and when we always think of the good.
Mostly the good that is experienced when we lose someone dear and near is when we remember the beautiful memories that were built with that person.
One exemplary way to recollect such happy memoirs with the deceased is through the song “Never Gone” by the Backstreet Boys. Released in 2004, this comeback track by the Backstreet Boys is one perfect song that can help you move from your grieving. The lyrics can help you with reflection and makes you have this realization that everything is really not that bad. That you can always find strength with that person’s fondest memories and you can always move forward and carry on with a braver and stronger heart.
“Never Gone” by the Backstreet Boys also talks about how one person never loses another since that person is never far away and never gone. Distance and loneliness is a blurred line for these two people since the fondness that the person far away has left is strong and everlasting. Even with goodbye, this person is never forgotten.
Another bonus is how wonderfully this song was written. The tone and the melody of the song are pleasing. Plus, the manner on how the singers expressed and interpreted the song leaves you misty, teary eyed and pleased.
A person’s presence that is felt through the heart is indeed really powerful. Fond memories that were once shared with that person always leave us with a certain bitter and sweet nostalgic smile. And sometimes, that sweet smile that is formed in our lips heals us and makes us feel that our loss is never really that hurtful anymore.
One great way of remembering our loved ones in case they decide to have basic cremation, is for their ashes be incorporated on cremation jewelry. It is one classy way to have them be close near our hearts. In a way we can truly say that they were “Never Gone”.
