I know this thread is two months old, but after looking through this thread, my absolute favorite breakup song has not been mentioned and this will not do.

So I present to you … [“Love Done Gone”](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3d1T0UcsUN0&ob=av2e) Billy Currington.

Sample of lyrics:  
_Like snowflakes when the weather warms up  
Like leaves on the trees when the autumn comes …  
It ain’t nothin we ever said or ever did wrong  
It’s just love done gone._

And it’s so peppy it’ll cheer you up, too!

Otis Redding’s **I’ve Been Loving You Too Long**. Prepare the kleenex.
