Where Were You (When The...

Written by David Philip Ireland

Sleeping alone is a brand new skill
That you’ve taught me to own
And I’m good at it
So good at it
So good

Living alone is a secret thrill
That you placed at my throne
I’m Queen again
Supreme again
Supreme

Now it’s 4 am and I’m practicing hard
No heart to share
No Valentine card
No secret touch
No whispered words
Deserted,
abandoned
It hurts

Where were you when the baby was crying?
Where were you when the broken hearts were born?
Where were you while my tears were drying?
Where were you when my world was torn in two?
Where were you,
Where were you?

Living alone is a brand new pill
That you placed on my tongue
Now I’m high again,
I can fly again
I can fly again

I broke down the walls that you put in my way
And I clawed my way out
I’m free again, (free again)
I’m me again (me again)
I’m free…

This empty shell of flesh and bone is breathing life,
I’m on my own
And I like it

Those first small steps
were walked alone
Now I’m strong again (strong)
so strong. (So strong)
And I like what is happening to me

Where were you when the baby was crying?
Where were you when the broken hearts were born?
Where were you while my tears were drying?
Where were you when my world was torn in two?
Where were you,
Where were you?

Where were you when the baby was crying?
