When I Needed You Songtext
von Blu Cantrell

See it′s a damn shame
You got caught up in the game
So much to offer
But so little to give
Yea, yea

Now ya runnin' around
Tryin′ to get down
With every trick in town
Tell me why
You had me waitin' by the phone
All alone?


Oh I need a man
That wants all of me
(All of me)
'Cause I need to give someone
All of me
(Hmm)
I don′t wanna have to ask
Where were you
When I needed you

Oh I need a man
Who wants all of me
(Ohh)
′Cause I need to give someone
All of me
(All of me)
I don't wanna have to ask
Where were you
When I needed you

Now I′ve tried and tried
To make you realize
That here's
Where you wanna be
But you didn′t wanna listen to me
Yea, yea


Now I got somebody new
Who does all the things
That you didn't do
It could have been you
Baby, baby
Could have been you
Yea yea

Oh I need a man
Who wants all of me
(All of me)
′Cause I need to give someone
All of me
(Ohh)
I don't wanna have to ask
Where were you
When I needed you

Oh I need a man
Who wants all of me
(Ohh)
'Cause I need to give someone
All of me
(Ohh)
I don′t wanna have to ask
(I don′t wanna have to ask)
Where were you
(Yea)

I need someone
To take the pain away
Change the rain and the cloudy days
I hoped and prayed that person
Would be you

But baby when it's all said and done
I′m gonna be the only one
To take care of me
So look out for blue

Oh I need a man
Who wants all of me
(Ohh)
'Cause I need to give someone
(Oh yea)
All of me
I don′t wanna have to ask
(I don't wanna have to ask)
Where were you
Oh yea yea

I need a man
Who wants all of me
(All of me)
′Cause I need to give someone
All of me
(Ohh)
I don't wanna have to ask
(Ohh)
Where were you
When I needed you

I need a man
Who wants all of me
(Give me some)
'Cause I need to give someone
(Love you, aah)
All of me
(Ohh)
I don′t wanna have to ask
(Aa ohh)
Where were you
When I needed you
(When I needed)

I need a man
Who wants all of me
(You)
′Cause I need to give someone
All of me
I don't wanna have to ask
(Baby)
When I needed you
(When I needed you)
