Don't bother cryin', don't bother crawlin'

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

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

Well now I'm well off

And 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

Where..ere...ere

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

But no use explainin', I've already decided

That livin' with you, it's worse than without you

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

Oh, things got rough and you disappeared

Now I'm back on my feet

But look, look who's standing there

Where were you when I needed you

Where were you when I wanted you

Where were you when I needed you

Where..ere...ere

Oh, you were so young, and you were so wild

I knew you were nobody's innocent child

That first day I saw you, you really got to me

I thought I could change you, what good did it do me

Oh, things got rough and you wouldn't wait

Now you're tripping back

But babe, it's too late

Where were you when I needed you

Where were you when I wanted you

Where were you when I needed you

Where..ere...ere
