Where were you when
I needed you so
Where were you when the waves came crashing upon the
Shore
Where were you when
This kind of love I couldn't
Uphold
Where were you when I couldn't take it anymore
We shared a lifetime of love
In those days see
The fruits of love
We're barely beginning
Again and again
I'd live as you had shown me to be
Yet as fate changed you'ld act
As if you didn't know me
I thought family was supposed to stay close throughout the
End
I wanted to be your loved one not only your
Counseling friend
And although you seemed happy I simply could not understand
Where were you when
I needed you so
Where were you when the waves came crashing
Where were you when
This kind of love I could'nt
Uphold
Where were you when I couldn't take it anymore
All I did want
Was for someone to hold me
So close that I'd feel
Oh some security
To ease my intermost pleas
Tenderness who held the key
Time as it passes
Proves only that I've grown free
Of the fears that we both shared when I was
A just a little girl
I found out that tears shed for pain are like
Rain it starts to fall
Where the earth absorbs water that nourishes it's deepest core
Expressed emotion helps me to grow
But where were you when
I needed you so
Where were you when the waves came crashing upon the
Shore
Where were you when my heart lay bleeding on the
Floor
Where were you
Now old regret
Has started to flee
Anger and tears
No longer afflict me yeah
True humility
Can only let you be
Time as it passes
Proves only
That we're growing free
Now our lives take a new meaning since we're changing
What has past
Though the hurt was strong and pain was felt love
Cannot be surpassed
And it's true there's few who won't tarnish the pearls
You do cast
And I know that we both want to grow
So here we are now
I forgive you so
Here we are now
Let's let life's healing overflow
Here we are now
This is how I always wanted to be
I need you so
