Don't bother crying, don't bother calling..
it's all over now, there's no use in stalling.
The love I once 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 whos comin' rou..nd.
Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?
Whe...re?
You're looking good, it's hard to fight it..
but no use to explain, I've already decided..
that goin' with you is worse than without you..
I won't spend a lifetime worryin' about you.
When things got bad, you disappeared..
but I'm back on my feet and look, look, whos
standin' the..re.
Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?
Whe...re?
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?
When times got rough, ah, you wouldn't wait..
well, now you're trippin' back and, babe, babe,
it's too la..te.
Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?
Whe...re?
Where were you when I needed you?
Where were you when I wanted you?
Where were you when I needed you?
Whe...re? (Fade.)
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
