Where were you when I needed you most?
Just forget it, it’s the same old runaround
And I don’t understand
Just forget it, just forget it
Back to where we left off, baby
Why did you leave me alone?
We gave up before we gave it a chance
We gave up before we gave it a chance
Where were you when I needed you most?
Why did you leave me alone?
All I want to know is
Where were you when I needed you most?
Why did you leave me alone?
Why did you leave me alone?
And I don’t understand
We gave up before we gave it a chance
Just forget it, it’s the same old runaround
We gave up before we gave it a chance
‘How you been’ and ‘What’s been new with you lately’
We gave up before we gave it a chance
Just forget it, it’s the same old runaround
Why did you leave me alone?
I picked her up and she was three-fourths gone
Ready or not, I think I’ll give this a shot
Why did you leave me alone?
Where were you when I needed you most?
She passed out before we even got to talk
We gave up before we gave it a chance
And I don’t understand
You build me up just to let me down, down
And I don’t understand
Where were you when I needed you most?
Where were you when I needed you most?
I should know better than to give her what she wants
And I don’t understand, I don’t understand
Just forget it, just forget it
And I don’t understand
