   Helllooooooo Hubber's! Hope you are all well, I need some help!
   I need some songs, some meaningful songs, which kind of explain... say the end of something e.g. relationship, friendship or someone leaving somewhere maybe, something along them lines. Not too depressing though, meaningful but nice  
   
   Are there any you can suggest??
   
   Thankyoooouuuu

      There's an old song sung by Nancy Sinatra, These Boots Were Made for Walking, which I love.  I like it so much that I put it in my mini hub.  It's very upbeat and empowering.
      
      There's Sheena Easton's Almost Over You
      Gloria Gaynor's I Will Survive
      Enough is Enough by Streisand/Summer
      Knowing Me and Knowing You by Abba
      
      I always seem to like the old songs when it comes to leaving someone behind.

   sophs,
   check out this site: http://www.songlyrics.com/
   
   You can put in lyrics (make them up if you want), search by topic, song style, etc. 
   
   So, like, you might want to type in "it's over" "love" "goodbye" etc.
   
   Hope this helps!

   'Cause if he did, no no, he wouldn't make you cry
   He might be thrillin' baby but a-my love (my love, my love)

   He's never near you to comfort and cheer you
   When all those sad tears are fallin' baby from your eyes
   He might be thrillin' baby but a-my love (my love, my love)
   So dog-gone willin'
   So kiss him (I wanna see you kiss him. I wanna see you kiss him)

          All four of those lines are real songs.  Remember, I live just outside of Nashville.  You can hear anything when country music's king.

    You might try "Overs" by Simon & Garfunkel, from their "Bookends" album.
    
    Or a tune about a different sort of parting: "Last Boat Leaving" by Elvis Costello (from his CD "Spike").

          You're welcome Sophs, enjoy.
          
          I wish I could think of some tune like what you want, that isn't about some sad ending, but instead takes an unpleasant situation that resolves into a joyous redemption or something.
          
          Perhaps I'll rack my mind, and my vast music collection.

    Hey Sophs, I know it's an old song, but I always thought the song "Beth" by Kiss was an excellent song about the Music industry and a relationship.
