Now You're Gone
Basshunter Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now you're gone
I realized my love for you was strong
And I miss you here now you're gone
I keep waiting here by the phone
With your pictures hanging on the wall

Now you're gone
I realized my love for you was strong
And I miss you here now you're gone
I keep waiting here by the phone
With your pictures hanging on the wall

(Are you ready?)

Now you're gone
I realized my love for you was strong
And I miss you here now you're gone
Is this the way it's meant to be?
Only dreaming that you're missing me
I'm waiting here at home
I'll be crazy now you're gone

(Ready for take off, ready, ready, ready, ready for takeoff)

Now you're gone
I realized my love for you was strong
And I miss you here now you're gone
I keep waiting here by the phone
With your pictures hanging on the wall
There's an empty place in my heart
Without my Anna it will break apart
It won't heal, it never fades away
I'll go crazy, now you're gone

Now you're gone
I realized my love for you was strong
And I miss you here now you're gone
I keep waiting here by the phone
With your pictures hanging on the wall

Is this the way it's meant to be?
Only dreaming that you're missing me
I'm waiting here at home
I'll be crazy now you're gone

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to "Now You're Gone" by Basshunter convey the singer's feelings of love and loss after his significant other has left him. From the repetitive phrases of "Now you're gone," "I realized my love for you was strong," and "And I miss you here now you're gone," it's evident that the singer has come to appreciate the depth of his feelings for his partner, perhaps too late. He's left waiting, endlessly, by the phone, hoping for a call or text, and staring at photos of his ex-lover on his wall, which only adds to his emotional pain. The chorus repeats these sentiments, asking whether this is how it's supposed to be, and ultimately resigning himself to the fact that he'll go crazy without his love.


The bridge of the song adds an extra layer of hurt for the singer, as he acknowledges that there's an "empty place" in his heart without his partner, and that he'll be unable to move on. The repetition of "I'll go crazy now you're gone" sets the tone for the rest of the song, with the singer's pain and desperation palpable in his voice. The final repetition of the chorus, with the addition of "Only dreaming that you're missing me," conveys the singer's hope that his former lover may feel the same emptiness he does, even as he struggles to accept the reality of their separation.
