'Keep Breathing' from Music Artist, Kerrie Roberts is a wonderful, encouraging song to help those who just lost a loved one, and can't make it through the days and nights of sorrow. Here are some of the lyrics;
You wait in darkness for answers that you can't see
You know what you deserve
And you're wondering why your life is
Not what you thought it should be
When the night breaks, your heart still aches
How can you face the day?
Just keep breathing, you'll make it
Don't give in, you're not done yet
Sometimes all that you can do is
Keep breathing and believing
Don't let go, just hang on tighter a little longer

Here comes Goodbye is a song recorded by Rascal Flatts, but written by Chris Sligh and Clint Lagerberg. Here are some of the lyrics.
Here comes goodbye
Here comes the last time
Here comes the start of every sleepless night
The first of every tear I'm gonna cry
Here comes the pain
Here comes me wishing things had never changed
And she was right here in my arms tonight, but here comes goodbye
I can hear her say I love you like it was yesterday
And I can see it written on her face that she had never felt this way
One day I thought I'd see her with her daddy by her side
And violins would play here comes the bride
