《When You're Gone》的歌詞如下：
(Avril Lavigne)
I remember you would leave
我記得你總是離開
Every morning when the sun would rise
每天早晨太陽升起的時候
Everytime you'd say goodbye
每次你要離開的時候
I couldn't breathe
我無法呼吸
(Chorus)
All the times you said you'd never leave
每一次你說你永遠不會離開我
I believed you were the one
我都相信你是我的唯一
Now I'm all alone without you here with me
現在沒有你在我身邊，我孤身一人
If I ever lose you again
如果我再次失去你
Where do I turn around 我該怎么辦
Where do I run to 我應該跑到哪裡去
Cause when you're gone 當你不在時
You're my world and I can't function 沒有你我就像是失去了世界 無法繼續前行
Every night and every day
每天晚上和每一天
I remember all the good times 我們曾一起度過的美好時光
But I just can't hold on 但我現在無法堅持下去
When you're gone 你不在時
(Avril Lavigne & Jay-Z)
(Verse 2)
You said forever was a fairytale 你說永遠只是一個童話故事
Now I'm standing alone in the cold dead of winter 現在我一個人站在冬天的冰冷之中
And all I can hear is the sound of my own heart breaking 我只能聽到自己心碎的聲音
I thought that we could be 我想我們可以一直在一起
Forever and ever 直到永遠
But now I just can't feel anymore 但是現在我已經感受不到任何東西了
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
So tell me why I can't just let go 告訴我為什麼我不能放手？
Why do I still care? 我為什麼還關心著你？
When there's nothing left for me 當我什麼都失去了之後
Cause when you're gone 當你不在時
You're my world and I can't function 沒有你我就像是失去了世界 無法繼續前行
Every night and every day (Every night)
每一天晚上 (每一夜)
I remember all the good times 我們曾一起度過的美好時光 (All the good times)
But I just can't hold on (I just can't hold on) 但是我現在無法堅持下去 (我無法堅持下去)
When you're gone 你不在時 (Gone)
(Outro)
Gonna fade away 會慢慢淡忘你的存在
Find a way to move on 我嘗試著去尋找新的生活節奏
With no tears to cry 不要哭泣 (沒有淚水讓你悲傷了) (fade) 淡去…… (away) 遠離…… (Gonna get through this) 我將度過這段難關 (Gonna get through this) (cause I know what’s at stake) 因為我知道我處在什麼位置上 (I know what’s at stake) (Gonna make it through) 我將度過難關 (Gonna make it through) (Cause I know what’s at stake) 因為我知道我的人生會有何等改變 (Gone) 不再有了，因為(When you’re gone) 你已經離開了我。
