Some of us are fortunate enough to find that one great love – the one that slipped through our fingers, the one that we lose sleep over; that one great love that captured our hearts and took a piece of it as they exited our lives. And the only way we can feel again is listening to music that really speaks to us; the ones that sympathize, the ones that we sulk with, the ones we cry to. Here are 14 must listen to songs that will really understand our loss of the one that got away.
1. Under the Milky Way – Sia
“I wish I knew what you were looking for; I might have known what you would find.”

“Comparisons are easily done, once you've had a taste of perfection”
“How do I get better once I’ve had the best?”
3. Gravity – Sara Bareilles
“Something always brings me back to you; it never takes too long.”
“Set me free, leave me be. I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.”

“Is there a chance, a fragment of light at the end of the tunnel, a reason to fight?

5. Not Over You – Gavin DeGraw
“Dreams, that’s where I have to go, to see your beautiful face anymore.”

6. Lovin’ Lately – Big & Rich
“I guess you've finally got the best of me. I guess you thought I'd never see. You know it's so hard to believe how we came down, like we were nothing, baby. Who you been lovin’ lately?”
