"The Times I Need You" lyrics

Ooh this life can surely kick your ass
People smile and say this too shall pass
Brother they may never care
But you were always there
All the times I needed you

Yes you were there but where was I
(Turning to the wrong protectors)
Letting honest comfort pass me by
(Taking love from love rejectors)
I'd be in free fall
But too afraid to call
All the times I needed you

Friendship
Sitting like a dog down at your feet
Kick it
Ignore it
But it will still be there!
Ooh my ego lies just like a song
It says keep it to yourself
And you'll look strong
All that time-honored crap
Just helped me lose my map
All the times I needed you

Friendship
Sitting like a dog down at your feet
Kick it
Ignore it
But it follows you everywhere

I could be a jerk sometimes
You could be a jerk sometimes
It's all a matter of degrees!
Ooh now I look back and there we are
(Two scared
Shaggy-haired
Mis-paired
Lunatics)
Pooling all our cash to buy a star
(Look there we are on the TV)
If I had my own way
I'd let you know today
That I always needed you
All the times I needed you
