"Where Were You When I Needed You" lyrics

Ah, don't bother cryin'
Don't bother crawlin'
Baby, it's over now
Ain't no use in name-callin'
The love I once felt
I don't feel anymore for you
This time I'll even open the door for you
You walked out when I was down
Now I'm gettin' up and
Look, look who's comin' 'round

Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?

Ah, you're lookin' good
It's hard to fight it
But there's no use explainin', baby
I've already decided
That livin' with you
Is worse than without you
I won't spend a lifetime worryin' about you
Times got rough and you couldn't wait
And now you're trippin' back
Baby, baby, it's too late

Oh, where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?

You were so young
You were so wild
But I knew you were nobody's innocent child
The first day I saw you
You really got to me
Well, I thought I could change you
What good did it do me?
Well, times got hard and you disappeared
And now I'm on my feet
And look, look who's standin' there

Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?

Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?

When I needed you

Where were you?

Where were you?
Where were you?
