I Get Along Without You Very Well by Chet Baker. This piece helps fill the emptiness in a room when I am feeling alone. Even though it's simple and slow, I play it when I need something to make me feel calm and relaxed. The lyrics in itself are so beautiful, even though it's about missing someone but ignoring the feeling. Not too long ago I was feeling very hopeless and alone and my dear friend introduced me to this song in the middle of my theory class and I began to cry because it made me feel so many different things. I listened to it repeatedly. I listened to it on my subway ride to school, on a walk, pretty much any time I could. Even though it's a sad song it comforts me.
