"When I Wanted You" lyrics - PERRY COMO

Tho' we've gone our separate ways
There could only be brighter days
I didn't mean that much to you
Sweated out to lose the fight
You can make it turn out right
'Cause you've got the heart to be secure...

When I wanted you and needed you
And I still can't bring myself to say "hello" to you
When I gave you time to make up your mind
You turned your back on me
And now I'm turnin' mine on you...

After all that we've been through
Leaving you is so hard to do
When I close my eyes, I don't feel the pain
What was wrong and who was right
In the end you'll see the light
'Cause you think a lot and you'll find you're wrong...

When I wanted you and needed you

And I still can't bring myself to say "hello" to you
When I gave you time to make up your mind
You turned your back on me
And now I'm turnin' mine on you...

[Instrumental break]

When I wanted you and needed you
And I still can't bring myself to say "hello" to you
When I gave you time to make up your mind
You turned your back on me
And now I'm turnin' mine on you...

When I wanted you and needed you
Still can't bring myself to say "hello" to you
When I gave you time to make up your mind
You turned your back on me
And now I'm turnin' mine on you...
