Miles Kane’s “Without You” is a warm, soul-inflected love song that feels like it could’ve been written in the late ’60s or early ’70s – more Motown romance than modern indie rock. It shows Kane leaning into vintage pop-soul sensibilities, mixing sincerity with swagger.

[Verse 1]
There's something special about you
Something I have never known
Miss you in the daytime
Dream about you all night long
You lift me up when I'm fading
With sweet nothings whispered in my ear
Believe me when I tell you
My love for you is so sincere
[Chorus]
How could I ever go on without you?
Everything would go wrong without you
[Verse 2]
You're the sweetest temptation
I've ever found myself in
My whole situation's better than it's ever been
[Bridge]
No more messing with the darkness, giving myself away
I'm just living for the promise of a brighter day
Oh, yeah
[Verse 3]
If I don't ever do nothing
But to get to hold you in my arms
I'd be like a present, wrapped up in my baby's charms
[Chorus]
How could I ever go on without you? (Oh, yeah)
Everything would go wrong without you (Yeah, yeah)
How could I ever go on?
Everything would go wrong
That's why I'm calling my song
Without you (Yeah)
Without you (Yeah)
Without you (Yeah)
Oh, without you
Oh, without you
Without You was written by Dan Auerbach & Miles Kane & Pat McLaughlin.
Without You was produced by Dan Auerbach.
Miles Kane released Without You on Wed Sep 24 2025.
For me, the track is a rock n roll creeper, the underdog of the album that has that ‘70s dark vibe to it. It was one of the very first tunes Dan Auerbach and I wrote together and it’s still got that rawness to it”
