where were you when i needed you

don't bother crying, don't bother calling, it's all over now, no use in stalling, the love once i 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, well, now i'm well off, and look, look who's coming 'round, where were you when i needed ya, where were you when i wanted ya, where were you when i needed ya, where?, you're looking good, it's hard to fight it, there's no use explaining, i've already decided, that living with you, is worse than without you, i won't spend a lifetime a-worrying about you, things get rough and you disappeared, now i'm back on my feet, and look, look who is standing there, you were so young and you were so wild, i knew you were nobody's innocent child, the first day i saw you, you really got to me, i thought i could change you, what good did it to me?, things got rough and you couldn't wait, now you're tripping back, but babe, babe it's too late
