"Just When I Needed You" lyrics

Just When I Needed You

Just when I needed you
You left and went away
You made my life so blue
Both night and day

You left me here behind
With a troubled worried mind
So broken hearted too
Just when I needed you

I cried, I cried
I prayed, Lord, I tried
To forget you
And never call your name
What a shame, what a shame
You're the one that was to blame
You're the one that proved untrue
Just when I needed you

You said, it's best we part
And never love again
And though it broke my heart
I won't complain

You know I love you still
And dear I always will
Although you proved untrue
Just when I needed you

No matter where you wander
No matter what you do
There's a longing in my heart
For only you

I love you just the same
And I want you back again
Although you proved untrue
Just when I needed you

I cried, I cried
I prayed, Lord, I tried
To forget you
And never call your name
What a shame, what a shame
You're the one that was to blame
But you went and proved untrue
Just when I needed you
