When You're Gone

I don't want to think about you when you're gone I don't want to hear your voice talk on the phone All those notes and all those cards I'm going to throw them in the yard I'm going to put them in the trash where they belong I just want a clean slate, I think I will redecorate Slap some fresh new colors on the walls I'll throw away your letters and rip up all your sweaters You can't haunt me, you can't taunt me when you're gone, ah yeah Accentuate the positive, that's what the people say Talk it up, don't let it get you down But there's so many negatives that pass along the way Throw them in the river, let 'em drown Bury them in the ground, yeah I don't want to read about you when you're gone I don't want to hear about the things you've done I put a filter in my brain, I want to cut out all that pain I don't want to hear about you when you're gone Don't want to hear those melodies, they're like a touch of leprosy I've grown to hate our favourite song If I hear it on the radio, I grab the damn remote control You can't haunt me, you can't taunt me when you're gone, aah When you're gone all right --- When You're Gone - The Rolling Stones
