| Where were you?
 When I needed to talk,
 wanted to get it of my chest
 pour my heart out and be at peace
 Where were you?
 
 When I needed a hug
 a closeness of our bodies
 to feel as though I belonged
 Where were you?
 
 When I just needed to cry
 someone to dry my eyes for me
 to feel comforted and protected
 Where were you?
 
 When I sat at home all alone
 wondered what you were doing
 cried myself to sleep again and again
 Where were you?
 
 When I stood up tall
 made myself start over again
 dried my eyes and blew my nose
 Where were you?
 
 When I look back and see
 all the times you weren't there
 I still wonder even now
 Where were you?
