the bangles - where were you when i needed lyrics

(p. f. sloan/s. barri)
don't botter cryin'
don't botter crawlin'
it's all over now
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

you walked out
when i was down
well now i'm well off
and look who's comin' around

where were you when i needed you
where were you when i wanted you
where were you when i needed you
where

you're looking good
it's hard to fight it
there's no use explainin'
i've already decided
that livin' without ya
is worse than without ya
i won't spend a lifetime
a-worryin' about ya

things got rough
and you dissappeared
now i'm back on my feet
and look who's standing there

where were you when i needed you
where were you when i wanted you
where were you when i needed you
where

you were so young
and you were so wild
i knew you were nobody's
innocent child
the first day i saw you
you really got me
i thought i could change ya
what good did it do me

things got rough
and i couldn't wait
now you're trippin' back
but babe, it's too late

where were you when i needed you
where were you when i wanted you
where were you when i needed you
where
