Where Was Your Heart (When You Needed It Most)

You're time-wasting again Biting your nails like you were sixteen Putting up your little walls When emotion's around Leave your little heart In the lost and found Your friends would die laughing If they saw you this way Even though they cry the same tears every day Where was your heart When you needed it most? Hand in hand with your innocence Gave up the ghost But it doesn't do to tell You're at your best When you're living hell Just put on your hard face You know you do that so well Thank god you wore Your waterproof make-up today And who gives a damn about him anyway? To him you're a body And to hell with the mind But you get the same stick from his type all the time Just a couple of drinks And they've got you tonight And you know the sad thing Is that they're often right Where was your heart When you needed it most? Hand in hand with your innocence Gave up the ghost They take hold of your heart And they spit it right out Make a show of their conquest When their friends are about Your ego deflated You gave up the fight And became the good-time-had-by-all-every-night And where was your heart When you needed it most? Hand in hand with your innocence Gave up the ghost No comfort of beds Or the softness of sheets Just the back of a car Sprawled across the back seats And he'll just not give up And he's messed up your head A dish in the disco But a pig in the bed So you build up a false love affair anyway Photocopy soap opera stories all day Where it all ends up fine And it all ends in church And the girl looks like you And she never really gets hurt And where was your heart When you needed it most? Hand in hand with your innocence Gave up the ghost
