Where Were You When I Needed You

Where were you when I needed you

Where were you in the falling rain?

I looked around but you could not be found

You'll never let me down again

You broke my heart when I needed it most

Things 'round here won't be the same

I was on my knees, getting up by degrees

You'll never let me down again

Only a fool could call you a friend

O, don't pretend everything's ok now

Don't come up and say "Hello, how are you, it's been a while!"

I don't want to hear your voice buzzing in my ear

I can't stand to see you smile

Where were you when others hung tough?

Where were you when I called your name?

You turned your face, you muddied my name all over the place

You'll never let me down again

Only a fool would call you a friend

Where were you when I needed you?

Couldn't you stand the pain?

You drank my good wine back in those fat times

You'll never let me down again

Only a fool could call you a friend

I won't be fooled again
