When Youre Gone

When Youre Gone was co-written by Bryan Adams and Eliot Kennedy. It was inspired by the notion of how someones absence can have a significant emotional impact. Bryan Adams was motivated to write the song while on tour, capturing the feeling of missing someone that many people experience while away from loved ones.
