When I Needed You Lyrics - The Innocents - Erasure

I'd like to be a child again 

So many things to do 

Playground noise and coloured toys 

And everything brand new 

I'd like to be a pirate ship 

In search of hidden gold 

On ocean waves I'd swim away 

And sail around the world 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend?

I'd like to be a soldier 

A general I would be 

In battle and in glory 

With ten thousand men to lead 

I could be most anything 

There is so much to see 

I'd live a different story 

If you were next to me 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend?

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

I could be most anything 

There is so much to see 

I'd live a different story 

If you were next to me 

Where, where 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend? 

Where, where were you 

When I needed you most 

When I needed a friend?
