Where Were You Lyrics - Cause And Effect - Maria Mena

I was a backing track 

Saving my green voices back 

Disguising the obvious 

That I had no-one to sing for 

I lived in a paper bin 

which I lived curled up and forgotten in 

With an unfinished lovers hymn 

Tattooed on my forehead 

Oh,Oh,Oh, where were you? 

Had I known you then 

The outcome would have been better 

I got used to the treadmill love 

Where no matter how fast you run 

You're stuck at the starting point 

Only exhausted 

I was the anonymous author 

Of songs I'd not dared to share 

Lacking the audience of a lover's ear 

Oh,Oh,Oh, Where were you? 

Had I know you then 

The outcome would have been better 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

You could have prevented this 

Oh,Oh,Oh, where were you? 

Had you known me then 

The outcome would have been better
