Where were you?

Where were you – when I needed your touch?

Sailing in a beautiful yacht
Along the beaches of the Mediterranean?
Dancing down the river through the night
With the many women of the Nile?
Clinging desperately to the edges of a barrel
As you’re tumbling off Niagara?

Where were you – when I needed to hear your voice?

Were you on a date with a new lover
Walking hand-in-hand through Time Square?
Or watching an off-Broadway performance
With a friend you haven’t seen in years?
Maybe you were just laughing
With a stranger…

Where were you – when I needed you most?

You were wondering
Why I said goodbye
