"Lost Without You" is a pop ballad written by Bridget Benenate and Matthew Gerrard, produced by Gerrard for Delta Goodrem's first album Innocent Eyes (2003). It was released as the album's second single on February 28, 2003 (see 2003 in music) in Australia and in the middle of 2003 for the rest of the world.

Goodrem re-mixed and recorded the song for the United States and the song was released there on June 28, 2005 (see 2005 in music) as a digital download.

It was then knocked off the top again by "All the Things She Said". "Lost Without You" spent twelve weeks in the top ten, eighteen weeks in the top fifty, thirty-two weeks in the top one hundred, was certified double platinum by ARIA and was the seventh highest selling single in Australia for 2003.[3] The song debuted at number thirty-one on the New Zealand RIANZ Singles Chart on June 29, 2003.

[edit] Music videosThere were two music videos to help promote the song — the first video was released around the world and the second video was released only in the United States. The first video was directed by Katie Bell and filmed in Rockhampton[disambiguation needed] London and was released on February 17, 2003. Goodrem states "It's a nice step from the last video. It's kind of a little bit more relaxed. We hung a little bit looser and freer on this one. The other one looks really kind of serious and I actually jump around a lot more than what people think. Just the atmosphere and everything about the clip - I'm really happy with it"[6]. This version shows Goodrem entering a living room in her home and upon her entrance, she lights up the room and begins playing the parts of the song in the piano. As the song progresses, she reminisces the many times she has spent with her friends. Some scenes also show Delta in her room, where she is still reminiscent of those times. The video, with behind the scenes, is available on Goodrem's first DVD Delta (2003). The second video was filmed in California and was released in the U.S. in August 2005. The music video is set on a beach, where Goodrem plays the parts on the piano and the colour scheme is in black and white. This video also shows Goodrem with a man, hugging and walking towards each other. There are only a few differences between these two versions of the song; the length and vocals. In the first video, the instruments are played mildly, while in second video, the instruments are played slightly stronger. [edit] Cover versionsThe song was covered by Darren Hayes during the ARIA Awards Ceremony in 2003, due to Goodrem being too ill to perform. Contemporary Christian artist Jaci Velasquez has also recorded a cover version. In this version the lyrics of the song have been revised to tell of a dependence upon God, as opposed to a lover, as in the original. The song features on her album Unspoken (2003). Australian band Fido has also covered the song in a rockier way, and posted it on their MySpace.
