Where Were You When I Needed You

[Verse 1]

Don't bother cryin'; don't bother callin'

It's all over now; no use in stallin'

The love once I felt

I don't feel any more 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 comin' 'round

[Chorus]

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where were you when I wanted ya?

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where?

[Verse 2]

You're lookin' good; it's hard to fight it

There's no use explainin'; I've already decided

That livin' with you

Is worse than without you

I won't spend a lifetime a-worrying about you

Ah, things get rough, and you disappeared

Now, I'm back on my feet

And look, look who is standin' there

[Chorus]

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where were you when I wanted ya?

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where?

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

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?

Ah, things got rough, and you couldn't wait

Now, you're trippin' back

But babe, babe it's too late

[Chorus]

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where were you when I wanted ya?

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where?

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where were you when I wanted ya?

Where were you when I needed ya?

Where?
