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 you're here 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
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
