lyrics

Where Were You
Written - June 2001

I rearranged the house to the way it was before
Now that things are settled, can’t think what I wanted so long for
A mirror in front me is a hard view to take
But I can ask the questions, knowing I’ll be okay

Where were you,
When I couldn’t see the clouds for the sky
Where were you
When I’d call out your name
Didn’t I make it clear
I needed you here

Sounds repetitive, but I’m sorry it turned out this way
We both got tired of pretending we could make you want to stay
A dry existance followed by a crash
No longer buried by the thoughtlessness and ash

Where were you,
When I couldn’t see the clouds for the sky
Where were you
When I’d call out your name
Didn’t I make it clear
I needed you here

What would you do, if you had it to do again
What rules would you change
What would you say, when you left that day
How would you want it to end

Time moves on, work gets done
They say one heals all wounds the other’s a nice distraction
Everything is as it should be
Except I’m not there loving you, you’re not here loving me.
