Bonnie Tyler — Where Were You

Oh baby - I was always around
To pick you up when you were falling down
Now baby - when you were crying the blues
Wasn't I the one that you came crying to?
In all the years gone by
You've never seen me cry
I never let you see the other side of me

Chorus:
Where were you
When I needed somebody to lean on?
Yeah where were you
When I needed a shoulder to cry on?
I always held you close when you were feeling weak
Guess I was walking down a one-way street
I was a fool to think that you'd be there for me
Where were you?

Oh baby - when you needed a friend
I stuck beside you girl through thick and thin
Now Baby - when no-one cared at all
Wasn't I the one that you would always call
I gave away my heart, I knew just where I stood
Till I reached out for you 'cause I thought I could

(Chorus)

Now even more than what I'm going through
The cut that hurts the most is your attitude
You're pretty good at taking what you need
You've got a lot to learn about loyalty...

Believe me baby...there were times
You drove me crazy...I was so blind
Where were you?

I never let you down when you were full of fear
Saved you from drowning in a sea of tears
Why baby why then weren't you ever
There for me?

(Chorus)

Краткое описание

Текст песни Bonnie Tyler — Where Were You рассказывает о недооцененной любви и преданности, ожидании поддержки и понимания от близких людей. Певица жалуется на то, что всегда была рядом, чтобы поддержать и помочь, но когда она сама нуждалась в опоре и плече для плача, никого не оказалось рядом. Она вспоминает о моментах, когда чувствовала себя одиноко и оставалась без поддержки, несмотря на то, что всегда была готова всем помочь. Песня выражает разочарование в невозможности получить взаимность и поддержку в тяжелые моменты, а также о горечи от обнаружения эгоистичности, предательства и неблагодарности..
