Don't bother crying don't bother calling

It's all over now no use in stalling

The love once I 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 look who's coming 'round

Where were you when I needed ya

Where were you when I wanted ya

Where were you when I needed ya

Baby

You're looking good

It's hard to fight it

There's no use explaining

I've already decided

That living with you

Is worse than without you

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

Things get rough and you disappeared

Now I'm back on my feet

And look look who is standing there

Where were you when I needed ya

Where were you when I wanted ya

Where were you when I needed ya

Baby

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

Things got rough and you couldn't wait

Now you're tripping back

But babe babe it's too late

Where were you when I needed ya

Where were you when I wanted ya

Where were you when I needed ya

Baby

Where were you when I needed ya

Where were you when I wanted ya

Where were you when I needed ya
