Erasure - When I Needed You (melancholic Mix) lyrics

I'd like to be a child again So many things to do Playground noise, and colored toys And everything brand new I'd like to be a pirate ship In search of hidden gold On ocean waves that 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
