Where Were You When I Needed You
Jimmy Dean · The First Thing Ev'ry Morning [Columbia] [1965]
(Marvin Moore - Bernie Wayne)
Where were you when I needed you
When I wanted you, when I cried for you
I gave up all my pride for you I'd have died for you
But I don't need you now.
At last I hear to say you're sorry
For all the ways you did me wrong
I used to pray you'd say you're sorry
But now you waited too long.
Where were you when I needed you
When I wanted you, when I cried for you
I gave up all my pride for you I'd have died for you
But I don't need you now.
I guess you thought I'd still be lonely
And waitin' patiently for you
I used to pray you'd say you're lonely
I found a love that's true.
Where were you when I needed you
When I wanted you, when I cried for you
I gave up all my pride for you I'd have died for you
But I don't need you now.
I'd have die for you but I don't need you now...
Where were you when I needed you
When I wanted you, when I cried for you
I gave up all my pride for you I'd have died for you
But I don't need you now.
At last I hear to say you're sorry
For all the ways you did me wrong
I used to pray you'd say you're sorry
But now you waited too long.
Where were you when I needed you
When I wanted you, when I cried for you
I gave up all my pride for you I'd have died for you
But I don't need you now.
I guess you thought I'd still be lonely
And waitin' patiently for you
I used to pray you'd say you're lonely
I found a love that's true.
Where were you when I needed you
When I wanted you, when I cried for you
I gave up all my pride for you I'd have died for you
But I don't need you now.
I'd have die for you but I don't need you now...
