The Grass Roots - Where Were You When I Needed You lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

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

It's all over now, there's 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

(Pre-Chorus)

You walked out when I was down

Now I'm well off and look

Look who's comin' round!

(Chorus)

Where were you when I needed you

Where were you when I wanted you

Where were you when I needed you

Where?

(Verse)

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 worryin' about you

(Pre-Chorus)

Oh, things got rough and you disappeared

Now I'm back on my feet, but look,

Look who's standing there!

(Chorus)

Where were you when I needed you

Where were you when I wanted you

Where were you when I needed you

Where?

(Verse)

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?

(Pre-Chorus)

Oh, things got rough and you wouldn't wait

Now you're tripping back

But babe, babe, it's too late!

(Chorus)

Where were you when I needed you

Where were you when I wanted you

Where were you when I needed you

Where?
