Dean Lewis - How Do I Say Goodbye (Official Video)

[@mrp5578]

I’m dying of cancer that spread to my lungs . I don’t know how to say good bye to my kids.The pain of leaving them is the most painful thing in my life. They don’t deserve this. They’re good kids and for them to see me sick for several years and the trauma it brings it- is very painful for me. May Gods have mercy on my family. No child should bear the pain of losing a parent at a young age.

[@lazybee666]

❤️❤️❤️

[@teepy99]

Man, sending you all the well wishes and good energy I can. May the world embrace your kids and give their caregivers an abundance of love to give to them. I don't know you but I would say the days yous have, make loads of videos, leave them lots of stories and give them all the love you can muster.

Just lost my dad, my best friend, to cancer a few months ago. My wife showed me this song months after it came out because she was afraid it would be too much that early. I've never struggled so hard with something. The part you talk about staring in the mirror, I didn't realize it but I had quit looking in the mirror for months. Each month goes by, every time I see my own face I see more of his, cannot explain the pain. God bless, appreciate the song.

I just came across this today. It has me bawling like a baby. It will be two years mid December when my dad passed away. He had dementia and Alzheimer’s and it was sepsis that got him. I remember begging my doctor to let me have my last birthday with him before we let him go. The day after my birthday we decided it was time to let him go. Those last 8 days we spent with him 24/7. He was with us fully. At the end he remembered us. And I am so grateful that my mother, brother, and I were with him holding him when he took his last breath. I still cry like it just happened. Right now my heart hurts so much I can’t believe it hasn’t exploded. This is killing me yet I keep listening to it.

I want to thank you for this comment. Although at the time I wasn’t pregnant and still haven’t had a kid of my own. It absolutely shatters me and makes me angry and sad that…whenever I do have children of my own they will only know my dad through others memories. That they will never be able to form their own with him. That I will never see my dads reaction to me announcing I’m pregnant. He was so excited to be a grandpa one day. That I won’t get to see my dad holding his grand baby for the first time. I just know he’d cry happy tears ❤ and that I’ll never get to see them forming a bond. It’s heart shattering and I almost felt…wrong for being so hurt and angry at the world by the realization of how bittersweet everything will be now that he’s gone. You’re not only grieving a physical life, you’re also grieving the life you thought you’d have. I went from walking along a path I was happy with to now I’m lost in the woods somewhere scared and alone. Thank you for making me feel less alone with some of my feelings and helping validate that I’m not alone on this. ❤

We're the same, I lost my dad when I was about to turn to 12, it was just so painful to see how he suffered from a heart attack and saw his last breath, that memory keeps flashing before my eyes whenever I think of him, since he died I shut everyone out of my life, it's just so painful to think that he died at a very young age, and now It feels like there's a missing piece of me that I keep on searching for, I am lost, it feels like there's no one that cheers me up when I feel down, I missed my dad, he's the one who accepted me for who & what I am. He's my knight in shining armor but life is ironic and somewhat unfair.

[@amybrown6658]

I can't watch this or even just hear it without crying. I've listened to it many times. My dad was diagnosed with leukemia in late 2020. We were preparing ourselves in the best way we could. It was incredibly aggressive and watching him endure the suffering that comes with it about killed us. I'm one of 6 and walking into that hospital room, seeing every single one of my 5 siblings and our mother surround his bed was utterly heartbreaking. We were starving for time with him and broken seeing him in such a terrible state. We could only cry, pray, and hold his hands that night. The doctors told us to brace ourselves. He has been cancer free for a year now. We learned a lot from that time and it brought us together in the most beautiful way.

I said, "they are such amazing people, I wonder what I did right?" He said, "Now you know how I feel." I was able to share this with my brothers and sisters since his funeral. Say it all, particularly with your parents, time is short, I have no regrets, my last words to my Dad were "I Love You." Those were also his last words to me.

[@tylerk-fc7ig]

My dad was diagnosed with stage 4 Cancer on 4/10/22. He passed away 6/11/23. I have never felt a stronger connection to a song. I really would just like to say that throughout the tough journey of my father battling cancer I learned some really valuable life lessons and I want to share that with those who are fortunate to still have there parents/loved ones. People always say to cherish the time you have with loved ones but naturally, life has so many distractions and it's easy to get caught up in everything going on in your personal life & take things for granted. Let your loved ones know how much you love them. Make time for them, even when you do not feel like it. Mend your relationship with them if there is any issues because life is honestly way too short. Take many photos & videos. Try to create as many memories as possible. As sick and evil that cancer is, I was fortunate enough to hold my fathers hand as he passed, and tell him how much I loved him and how amazing of a father he was to me and my sister. Even though he couldn't talk I could tell when he looked into my eyes how much he loved me.

I love this song so much my colleague at work recommended this song to me and I decided to give it a try... I have no regrets lol

[@elvarettamapes9658]

We brought my grandpa home on hospice 2 weeks ago, he's dying of cancer on his vocal chords and a couple minutes ago I got a text from my mom that he's sleeping right now and can hear us when we talk to him but he probably won't wake up again. He's been there for me since I was born and I wouldn't be here without him. He was like my father since mine isn't around much. I will miss his dark humor and his beautiful singing voice. This song has really been helping me through the pain. I love you Papa, you will hold my heart forever and always.

[@coryshann]

My daddy passed yesterday- he sounds a lot like your grandpa. Also like you said- he couldn’t respond to us but could definitely hear and understand us. The hand squeezes and the trying to smile said it all. Say everything you need to while you still can - you will never regret it. So much love and hugs to you. May he rest in peace and watch over you ❤

I know the feeling of losing a grandpa. My grandpa died on June 27th of this year he had multiple strokes that made him completely blind and then his prostate cancer which got into his bone started to hurt him bad. I remember my mom calling me like right after I woke up that day and say he was dying and I broke down into tears. My cousin and his dad picked me up and we went to the place where died and I remember my aunt standing outside the doors saying he had passed away. I walked into the rehab he was in and went straight to my mom and started balling my eyes out. My grandpa could hear us talk and gave us one word replies the week before he passed. I miss him dearly, he was like a father figure to me and the pain still hurts very bad.

[@NatalieMealer]

I’m sorry about your grandpa. I really feel bad for him. I’ll pray for y’all. I just hope your grandpa‘s feeling a lot better. I I just don’t really know how to say this, I’m just sorry for you

Condolences to anyone that have lost loved ones. Dean Lewis’s words in this song leave me speechless 🥹. I’ve lost plenty of loved ones(I’m grateful to have both my parents), but I don’t think I’ll ever know How to say goodbye. Great song my guy 😭

My dad is completely fine and healthy and this song still made me afraid of even the slightest thought of losing him. May god bless my whole family. Thanks for sharing your story, Dean.

[@janet-zk2kl]

My nephew just sang this to me. He said he learned it to sing to me when he thought I was going to die from colon cancer. Thankfully the surgery removed it all and I'm still here. That is due to the mercy and goodness of God, the many prayers of those who prayed for me and the skill of my surgeon, Dr. Azimuddin.

[@John_Steiner]

My name is Pam, using a friend's account. I'm so glad that you're here and you had a successful outcome. Glory and praise be to God,.

[@janet-zk2kl]

@John_Steiner Thank you Pam! God bless!

[@gavinmcguffey]

That kid sees you as much more than an aunt

[@janet-zk2kl]

@gavinmcguffey My nephew is supposedly a product of rape and my sister never wanted him. She told him all the time that she wished she had aborted him. It was I who took care of him when he was a baby. Unfortunately my husband would not let me take him permanently. Thankfully my parents got custody which meant that he was very much in my life. I eventually left my husband and was going, with my parents permission, to take over when he was 10 years old but sadly after spending the summer with me in another state he told me that he wanted to go back home because he had changed and his mother would love him now. I told him he wasn't the one who needed to change. My sister had not changed. But despite her rejection of him, my nephew became a nurse, married a school teacher and fathered two wonderful children who have grown up to be great kids and with whom I have a loving relationship. Just today I was with my nephew and great-nephew. I am very blessed.

I lost my dad almost 3 years from now, but until now still, I cant found myself. I'm don't fear death, i'm just afraid to be left behind or to leave someone behind. 😢 This song brought me a lot of tears. Thanks Dean.

[@ConradScheepers-ez8ko]

I just listened to this song link 10 times in a row and I couldn't stop crying thinking about how it would feel losing my Dad , I am sorry for you and all the people in the comments. I cant imagine a world without my Dad.

[@llc1252]

It's even more sad imo when you think about it from the dad perspective...knowing he's diying and will soon leave a son and probably a wife forever... having all the time to rationally process that but with nothing you can do. Must be so hard we cant imagine

[@ThePiggies3743]

I’ve done the same thing ❤

Hope you read this. You memorialized your Dad with this song and now he will live forever. Not only in your heart but in the hearts of everyone who hears this song.

[@rozannemouton747]

Oh I just cried my eyes out seeing this. I think so many people can relate to this. I lost my father unexpectedly as a teenager. I remember thinking that I can’t live without him and I still need him. I wish I could have told him how much I loved him and that he was the best part of me.

[@tdanielle23]

7 years without my dad. Still don't know how I'm supposed to keep living without him.

[@PhoebeMc]

Lost my mom 4 yrs ago but lost my dad when I was 9. He had no idea, in sure, he'd never be home again when he went into the hospital and died at a hospital 6 hrs away nearly 2 yrs later. Mom didn't get to say good bye and for us, it felt like he'd been gone so long already. Back then, kids weren't allowed to visit at hospitals (1972). Then my husband died in 2000 in his sleep & none of my kids were home. It's seriously still got the boys torn up. My daughters have handled things a lot better but now I have cancer. I'm nearly 61 which is pretty young really but no comparison to losing my husband when he was only 31. We just never know. Live each day as if it's your last as tomorrow isn't guaranteed. God bless everyone.

[@cheryllyntallman3994]

I lost my dad in 1983 in a plane crash and he was never found. Fast forward to present day and my husband has metastatic pancreatic cancer. Your song is the most perfect description of emotions. We have four grown children and I’m paralyzed thinking of them having to lose their cherished father. Two weeks ago I was walking through an airport with one of my sons as we were going to a pancreatic conference. I suddenly started weeping as your song was playing throughout the terminal. Your dedication to your dad is felt through every word. ❤

[@kemmers]

[@Charlottee.xx8]

This song means a lot to me, my dad was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer last year and passed 8 weeks later, everyone tells me I look just like him and I also have his same eye colour. While he was on all kinds of different medications, he wasn’t able to even wake up so I never got the chance to tell him everything I wish I could have. I’m now starting college and I would always count on him when it came to advice in my life and it’s really hit me hard not being able to turn to him anymore when times get tough. Just sending my love to anyone that has lost a parent/guardian 🤍
