How many times have I asked myself why All the good things in life seem to pa** me by Trouble and pain is my claim to fame No matter what I do, I can't find a love that's true Gave you all I had, then I gave you even more But all you ever did, was make me blue Where were you, when I needed you, oh oh baby Where were you, to protect me from the blues? My days grow long without him I don't think my lonely heart will ever mend Go through my days feelin' tired and blue
All I have left are memories of you There's danger in this heart of mine I think I see a real real bad time Where were you, when I needed you, oh oh baby Where were you, to protect me from the blues? I gave you all I had, then I gave you even more But all you ever dïd boy, was make me blue Where were you, when I needed you, oh baby Where were you, to protect me from the blues? Ah baby, ah save me from the blues
