i'm moving half way around the world.

I live in Alabama and I am going to college in Spain next year.

I am leaving my best friends and my boyfriend. I want to make them all CD's, but I am not sure what songs to use. I have been searching, but come up a little short.

Any ideas?

[SOULstice]

what feelings are you trying to convey? what message? Are you leaving for good or are you coming back soon? Basically, i'm asking if you know what kind of songs you want on these CD's. Here's some songs off the top of my head. I think they mostly apply to you and your boyfriend though...

Atlantic Starr - I'll remember you

Brian Mcknight - everytime you go away

Carl Thomas - summer rain

Davina - So good

I don't know if I will be coming back. So this will be goodbye for atleast a year.

My friends have been there for me through thick and through thin. We have had some amazing times. Now everyone is going off to college and going separate ways.
My boyfriend is my rock. Whenever I need anything he is there. He is the ying to my yang. I am going to miss the way he makes me feel and everything about him.

Basically I am just trying to tell them that they are the greatest things in my life and that it is going to be so hard for me to leave, but it just wasn't an opportunity I could turn down.

We listen to anything, so no style of music is off limits.

I'm originally from 'Bama too. The following song is probably twice your age but it's one of my favorites whenever I think about the friends I left behind.

"You've Got A Friend" by Carole King

When you're down and troubled
And you need some loving care
And nothing, nothing is going right
Close your eyes and think of me
And soon I will be there
To brighten up even your darkest night

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend

If the sky above you
Grows dark and full of clouds
And that old north wind begins to blow
Keep your head together
And call my name out loud
Soon you'll hear me knocking at your door

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there

Ain't it good to know that you've got a friend
When people can be so cold
They'll hurt you, and desert you
And take your soul if you let them
Oh, but don't you let them

You just call out my name
And you know wherever I am
I'll come running to see you again
Winter, spring, summer or fall
All you have to do is call
And I'll be there
You've got a friend
