Capo II *
Don't bother c
rying, don't b
other calling
It's all over
now, no use in
stalling
The love once
I felt
I don't feel a
nymore for you
This time I'll
even open the
door for you
You walked out
when I was do
wn
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?
Where?
You're looking
good
It's hard to f
ight it
There's no use
explaining
I've already d
ecided
That living wi
th you
It s worse tha
n without you
I won't spend
a lifetime a w
orrying about
you
Things get rou
gh and you dis
appeared
Now I'm back o
n my feet
but look, look
who is standi
ng there?
Where were you
when I needed
ya?
Where were you
when I wanted
ya?
Where were you
when I needed
ya?
Where?
Harpsichord break
When you were
so young and y
ou were so wil
d
I knew you wer
e nobody's inn
ocent child
The first day
I saw you
You really got
to me
I thought I co
uld change you
What good did
it do me?
Things got rou
gh and you cou
ldn't wait
Now you're tri
pping 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?
Where?
Where were you
when I needed
ya?
Where were you
when I wanted
ya?
Where were you
when I needed
ya?
