Sometimes I’m driving around Hanoi, noticing all the things I love about VietNam and I really wish my parents, sister and best friends could come see all this country has to offer.

Where I wish I was right now: Calgary, Canada in Winter…running around in the snow or cuddled up by the fire with The Boy and a Book.

Ever been far away from someone you love…?

….well here’s a mix about missing that person and still feeling the need to travel the world…

1. Every Time We Say Goodbye - Julie London

The perfect going away song….First of all, Julie London is a goddess. Second, the idea of saying goodbye to someone you love is always so painful and this song truly conveys that.

2. All at Sea - Jamie Cullum

“Later on you could spend some time with me
If you want to
All at sea”

3. Many the Miles - Sara Bareilles

“How far do i have to go to get to you
Many the miles
But send me the miles and I’ll be happy to follow you love”

4. Be Back Soon - Justin Nozuka

I could easily quote this entire song but I’ll choose my favorite part:

“I’m tired of getting postcards and
Tired of paying long distance bills (baby be back soon)
I’m tired of dreaming of sex and
Tired of not being able to show my skills (baby be back soon)

Over and over I hear you in the halls
Over and over I wake up with my pillows in my arms
Oh baby when you coming home
A day without you is a day without the sun

I’ve been missing out on your love and your shadows
And I can’t wait much longer babe, without you near I’m going crazy
Be back, be back, be back soon”

5. All My Lovin’ - The Beatles

This song is pretty obvious but for those CRAZIES who don’t know it…

Close your eyes and I’ll kiss you,
Tomorrow I’ll miss you;
Remember I’ll always be true.
And then while I’m away,
I’ll write home ev’ry day,
And I’ll send all my loving to you.

6. Chinese - Lily Allen

You wipe the tears from my eye
And you say that all that it takes is a phone call
I cry at the thought of being alone and then
I wonder how long it will take til I’m home again

- sorry for the abrupt change in type of song…im not quite as skilled at mixes as tvandtoast is -

7. Come Home - Ari Hest

“I don’t need no evidence
Written in a paper card
Saying that you miss me, that living alone is awfully hard

Just come home as soon as you can
Come home, don’t ever leave again
Then together we will spend, every moment till the end”


8. The Girl - City and Colour

“While I’m off chasing my own dreams,
Sailing around the world,
Please know that I’m yours to keep”


9. Plane - Jason Mraz

While this song seems terribly depressing at first listen…the lyrics are incredibly romantic…

“Damn I should be so lucky

Even only 24 hours under your touch

You know I need you so much

I cannot wait to call you

And tell you that I landed somewhere

And hand you a square of the airport”


10. 30 Some Days - Matt Duke

This might possibly be one of the most perfect “miss you” songs ever written.

“Stand on the shore
Your back to mine
You’ll watch the sunset
And I’ll watch the moon rise
We’ll bide our time
We’ll be just fine
‘Cause in 30-some days
I’m back on a flight home”
(matt duke is BRILLIANT…look up all his stuff on itunes!!)


11. Wait - Alexi Murdoch

“And if I stumble
And if I stall
And if I slip now
And if I should fall
And if I cant be all that I could be
Will you, will you wait for me”


12. Sleeping to Dream - Jason Mraz

“Sleeping to dream about you
And I’m so tired of having to live without you
Well, I don’t mind
Sleeping to dream about you and I’m so tired”


I know this is probably overly cheesy but after awhile of being away from someone…you miss them to the point of not being able to put into your own words (…which of course….only makes this MORE cheesy…)
