where are you now when i need you?

hey johnny

where are you now when i need you?

now when i need you so bad?

just one word come straight from your heart

makes me feel so glad!

death and disease walz together like starlets in this place

i sure would like to see your honest face

hey eddie

where are you now when i miss you?

now when i miss you like hell?

if you were here i know you'd make me

believe again in myself!

you don't owe me nothing

i'm not calling you away

so please don't feel accused when i say

where are you now when i need you?

now when i need you so bad?

my heads almost exploding

and the tension drives me mad

and maybe you wonder

do i really believe i need you?

but i do!

hey you

where are you now when i dream about you

in nightmares every night?

you were on a big wheel high above me

almost out of my sight

and just as i wake you shout down something that sounds like

why are you not free?

but by the time i'm dressed

you're just a memory

where are you now when i need you?

now when i need you so bad?

when my heads almost exploding

and this tension drives me mad

and maybe you wonder

do i really believe i need you?

but i do!

hey mama

where are you now i hurt for you?

i hurt for you so hard?

if you heard this song

i know you you'd come straight for me

you'd come somehow

no matter how far

there's a hundred things that i want to say to you

and they come rushing through my head

but when we meet like we always do

we leave the best things unsaid

and my god! isn't that lonely?

that's lonely as hell

to know the truth always but to be too scared to tell

where are you now when i need you?

now when i need you so bad?

when my hearts almost exploding

and this tension drives me mad

and maybe you wonder

do i really believe i need you?

but i do!

but i do!
