When I Needed a Friend

Ah yeah

Where were you
Where were you
You, you, you
Where were you
Where were you
You, you, you
When I really, really needed you

Where were you
When I was down
When the lights went out
When I was there all alone in an empty house
When no love could be found
When I just needed company
A friend
Longevity
Tell me, where were you, where were you
You, you, you

Where were you
When all I needed was a friend?
Somebody that would be there 'til the end
[?] for me
For me
Where, where, where, where, where, where, where were you
When I was down

When I was so, so alone
Feeling all emotional and empty inside
All I needed was somebody to talk to me
Just talk to me
Push me
Push me in a direction
Towards achieving, perceiving
Seeing a better me
Oh, how I wish, I wish you were there
There for me
Now everything's ruined
Here you come
But I ask myself

Where were you, where were you, where were you
Where were you, where were you, where were you
Where were you, where were you, where were you
When I needed
When I, I, I needed, I needed a friend
Where were you

Mm, yeah, so many times I sit back and reflect
I try to digest
Where were you
Where were you
Where were you, you
Oh
