The Cranberries - When You're Gone

When You're Gone is a rock ballad recorded by Irish band The Cranberries. It is the third single from their third studio album entitled To the Faithful Departed.

A video clip directed by Karen Bellone was released at the end of 1996.

The song was first played during the North American leg of the No Need to Argue Tour in the Fall of 1994.

The lyrics:

Give it up

Hold on to love, that is what I do

Now that I've found you

And from above, everything's stinking

They're not around you

And in the night I could be helpless

I could be lonely slipping without you

And in the day, everything's complex

There's nothing simple when I'm not around you

But I miss you, when you're gone

That is what I do, hey baby, baby

It's hard to carry on, that is what I do, hey baby

Give it up

Hold on to my hands

I feel I'm sinking, sinking without you

And to my mind, everything's stinking

Stinking without you

And in the night I could be helpless

I could be lonely, slipping without you

Hold on to love, that is what I do

Now that I've found you

And from above, everything's stinking

They're not around you

And in the night I could be helpless

I could be lonely slipping without you

Hey baby
