When You're Gone Lyrics - The Rolling Stones


1 I don't want to think about you when you're gone

2 I don't want to hear your voice talk on the phone

3 All those notes and all those cards

4 I'm going to throw them in the yard

5 I'm going to put them in the trash where they belong


6 I just want a clean slate, I think I will redecorate

7 Slap some fresh new colors on the walls

8 I'll throw away your letters and rip up all your sweaters

9 You can't haunt me, you can't taunt me when you're gone, ah yeah


10 Accentuate the positive, that's what the people say

11 Talk it up, don't let it get you down

12 But there's so many negatives that pass along the way

13 Throw them in the river, let 'em drown


14 Bury them in the ground, yeah


15 I don't want to read about you when you're gone

16 I don't want to hear about the things you've done

17 I put a filter in my brain, I want to cut out all that pain

18 I don't want to hear about you when you're gone


19 Don't want to hear those melodies, they're like a touch of leprosy

20 I've grown to hate our favourite song

21 If I hear it on the radio, I grab the damn remote control

22 You can't haunt me, you can't taunt me when you're gone, aah


23 When you're gone

24 All right
