Carson suffers from a serious case of melophilia. Geeking out on her favorite music artists is her guilty pleasure.

Whenever I hear songs about saying goodbye, I couldn’t help myself but cry. Sometimes, it’s as if I just catch myself welling up with tears, and I’m not sure why. Perhaps I just absolutely hate it when I need to say farewell to people I cherish most.

Note that I’m not only talking about songs with "goodbye" in the title that tell the story of a failed relationship. Whether the goodbye song is about a couple breaking up, a mother losing her child, or a person leaving her best friend, you can bet that I’ll cry over it.

If you aren’t as sentimental as I am, then you’ll fare much better as you listen to these songs about goodbye. Truth be told, I just did my research and looked up as many songs as I could without listening to all of them. If I did, I’d probably have puffy eyes for a whole week!

Before you hit the play button, though, I suggest you set a box of tissue by your side. You’ll probably need it!
