where are you when i need you?
Where are you when these tears wont stop?
where are you when my heart is aching,
Pounding even at the thought...

Where were you when I told you the truth?
Where were you when we needed to change?
Where were you when I decided i loved you?
reaching for you, you were out of range.

Where will you be when I'm dying without you?
Where will you be when You've run away?
Where will you be after all this is over,
After you met another and let me this way...

Where are you now while I'm falling to pieces?
Where are you now when I need you the most,
where is that beautiful angel I fell for,
Who made me feel safe like a heavenly host?

Where will I be when you finally drop me...?
Where will I be after this falls apart...?
Where will I be at the last day of sunshine,
when you run away with whats left of my heart...

It's easy to be a good friend when no one needs you. Where do you so conveniently disappear too when someone needs you the most?

&quot;You&#039;ve got to learn to move on, because life will move on. If you don&#039;t move on, you&#039;ll just end up in over your head.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;Never regret anything because at the time, it was exactly what you wanted.&quot;<br /> <br /> &quot;We accept the love we think we deserve.&quot;
