"If You're Gone" is a song by the rock band Matchbox Twenty. It was released in October 2000 as the second single off ''Mad Season''. The song, written by Matchbox Twenty frontman Rob Thomas, became a hit on adult contemporary radio, spending two weeks at number 1 on the ''Billboard'' Hot Adult Contemporary Tracks chart.〔Whitburn, Joel (2004). ''The Billboard Book of Top 40 Hits'', 8th Edition (Billboard Publications)〕 It also reached number 5 on the US ''Billboard'' Hot 100 chart, the band's second best-ranking song, preceded by the single "Bent" from the same album.〔 Rob Thomas never dreamed of the song going out on an album, let alone being a huge success. The horn-driven outro of "If You're Gone" borrows heavily (note for note) from "When the Rainbow Comes" by World Party from their 1990 release ''Goodbye Jumbo''. ==Background and writing== Thomas told ''Billboard'' magazine that he wrote the song right after he met his future wife. "We were separated for a few weeks and were on the phone all the time, and I was thinking, 'I met this wonderful person,' and I wondered if everything I was going through (Matchbox Twenty's success ) was going to make it too crazy to build a relationship."〔''Billboard'', April 1, 2000〕
