Where were you when I needed a friend?
Thought I could be strong
Never knew I'd be so wrong
A heart-breaker most of my life
Suddenly all changed
The moment you left me
And walked out my life

I tried to play cool
But instead I was playing myself
What you gotta know about me
Is that I'm dying in this lonely hell

And I don't wanna be without you
'Cause I can hardly breathe without you
This is what it feels to be the one
Who's standin' left behind
How did I become the wrong side of a love song?

Baby, I'm a mess
Out of every piece and part of me
You were always the best
But instead I was leaving you here alone
But I didn't mean it,
No, I didn't mean it
Now I'm begging, baby, come home

And you got me singing why,
Why you wanna make me cry?
I'll be thinking 'bout you
Got me dreaming 'bout you
Every single day and night

And I don't wanna be without you
'Cause I can hardly breathe without you
This is what it feels to be the one
Who's standin' left behind
How did I become the wrong side of a love song?

How, baby?
Wanna know why?
Can you tell me, why?
Said that you'll be there for me
Said you'll care for me
So how you're gonna say goodbye

And I don't wanna be without you
'Cause I can hardly breathe without you
This is what it feels to be the one
Who's standin' left behind
How did I become the wrong side of a love song?

Why, why?
Why, why, why, oh, oh, oh, need you oh
I really, really need you now, I really really need you now
I really, really need you now, I really really need you now, boy
Oh, baby, oh, baby, please
