Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Mary wants to be a superwoman
But is that really in her head?
But I just want to live each day
To love her for what she is
[Verse 2]
Mary wants to be another movie star
But is that really in her mind?
And all the things she wants to be
She needs to leave behind
[Verse 3]
But, very well, I believe I know you very well
Wish that you knew me too, very well
And I think I can deal with
Everything going through your head
[Verse 4]
Very well, and I think I can face very well
Wish that you knew me too, very well
And I think I can cope with
Everything going through your head
[Verse 5]
Mary wants to be a superwoman
And try to boss the bull around
But does she really think
That she will get by with a dream?
[Verse 6]
My woman wants to be a superwoman
And I just had to say goodbye
Because I can't spend all my hours
Start to cry, but..
[Verse 7]
Very well, I believe I know you very well
Wish that you knew me too, very well
And I think I can deal with
Everything going through your head
[Verse 8]
Very well, I think that I know you too very well
Wish you knew me like i know you, very well
But I think I can deal with
Everything going through your head
[Verse 9]
Very well
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum, very well
Wish you knew me too, very well
And I wish I can think of
Everything going through your head
[Verse 10]
Very well
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum, dum dum
Dum dum dum, dum dum dum, very well
And I think I can deal with
Everything going through your head
[Verse 11]
When the summer came you were not around
Now the summer's gone and love cannot be found
Where were you when I needed you last winter, my love?
[Verse 12]
When the winter came you went further south
Parting from love's nest, leaving me in doubt
Where are you when I need you, like right now?
[Verse 13]
Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed
But tomorrow will reflect love's past
[Verse 14]
When the winter came you were not around
Through the bitter winds love could not be found
Where were you when I needed you last winter, my love?
[Verse 15]
Need you baby, I need you baby
[Verse 16]
Our love is at an end
But you say now you have changed
But tomorrow will reflect love's past, oh
[Verse 17]
Spring will fill the air and you will come around
Well, is it summer love that will let me down?
Where were you when I needed you last winter, my love?
[Verse 18]
La la la la la, la la la la la
La la la la la, la la la la la
Where are you when I need you, like right now?
Right now, right now, right now, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 19]
La la la la la, la la la la la, oh, oh
[Verse 20]
Where were you when I needed you last winter, my dear?
Oh, I know you, yeah, I need you baby, I need you baby
I need you baby, I need you baby
I need you baby, I need you baby
Oh, where were you when I needed you last winter, last winter? Oh no
[Verse 21]
Make me say, need you baby, need you, need you baby
Oh, you want me to need you, baby
Oh, where were you when I needed you last, dear? Yeah
