Some happy day, after Im long gone away
Someone will make you see
You were in love with me
And know what its like to be
Where Im standing now
And then youll find me somehow
You better hope Im around when you need me
You know I wont be around when you need me
You better know what to do when you need me
No one told me what to do when I needed you
I was a man, now Im just a bird sitting in your hand
You tell me that its through
But when it comes to you
That I was in love with you
Youll wonder where to fly
When someone tells you goodbye
Maybe now you cannot see
But I know just what you need
Cause youre looking for someone like me
And after I leave you here
Youll spend some lonely years
And you wont need my tears
To know what Ive been through
And need me like I needed you
