Where Were You (Re-Edit)

Where were you when I needed you so Where were you when the waves came crashing upon the shore Where were you when this kind of love I couldn't uphold Where were you when I couldn't take it anymore We shared a lifetime of love In those days see The fruits of love We're barely beginning Again and again I'd live as you had shown me to be Yet as fate changed you'ld act As if you didn't know me I thought family was supposed to stay close throughout the end I wanted to be your loved one not only your counseling friend And although you seemed happy I simply could not understand Where were you when I needed you so Where were you when the waves came crashing upon the shore Where were you when this kind of love I could'nt uphold Where were you when I couldn't take it anymore All I did want Was for someone to hold me So close that I'd feel Oh some security To ease my intermost pleas Tenderness who held the key Time as it passes Proves only that I've grown free Of the fears that we both shared when I was a just a little girl I found out that tears shed for pain are like rain it starts to fall Where the earth absorbs water that nourishes it's deepest core Expressed emotion helps me to grow But where were you when I needed you so Where were you when the waves came crashing upon the shore Where were you when my heart lay bleeding on the floor Where were you Now old regret Has started to flee Anger and tears No longer afflict me, yeah True humility Can only let you be Time as it passes Proves only That we're growing free Now our lives take a new meaning since we're changing what has past Though the hurt was strong and pain was felt love cannot be surpassed And it's true there's few who wont tarnish the pearls you do cast And I know that we both want to grow So here we are now I forgive you so Here we are now Let's let life's healing overflow Here we are now This is how I always wanted to be I need you so
