"Du är alltid en del av mej" is a song with lyrics by Lars Berghagen and music by Lasse Holm. The song was performed by Henrik Åberg at Melodifestivalen 1996. The song's lyrics describe a person who has lost a loved one. The song has become common at funerals, since it can be interpreted that the you-person has died.

At Melodifestivalen, the song was knocked out from the first voting round, but at Svensktoppen it stayed for 36 weeks between 23 March-23 November 1996, topping the chart several times.[1] It meant Melodifestivalen record for a Svensktoppen song, counted as 2006 contest.[2] The record wasn't broken until 2008-2009 with Sanna Nielsen's Empty Room.
