Alicia Keys Drops Unreleased Song ‘When You Were Gone’ [LISTEN]

In celebration of the 10th anniversary of her 2007 album As I Am, Alicia Keys gifted fans with an unreleased track, “When You Were Gone.”

On the dramatic song, the Grammy-winning singer questions a former lover who is trying to come back into her life.

“When you were gone did you think of me? / When you were gone did you think I would be waiting for you the way that I have been? / When you were gone were you wondering how I was doing was I fine? / Know you was always on my mind / When you were gone, did you think of me?” she sings.

Keys provided a short letter about the song. She wrote, “Celebrating the anniversary of one of my favorite albums As I Am! ‘When You Were Gone’ is one of the VERY first songs recorded for As I Am, the one where I started to create the sound that the album has. We were experimenting with a lot of keyboards and sounds and styles of recording, and we were all about breaking boundaries and writing things in new ways.”
