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!
