Where did you go when you were needed?
Was it some place I know where they care?
Cries in the rain
I'll learn to get by without you for the pain in my heart

I'll be the one, we'll be together
I'll be the one, forever and ever

Look at me now, am I the loser?
If you can't tell me how, tell me why
But just the same
I'll learn to get by without you for the pain in my heart

I'll be the one, we'll be together
I'll be the one, forever and ever and ever
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Ahhhh-ahhhh-ohhh
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Ahhhh-ahhhh-ohhh

I'll be the one, we'll be together
I'll be the one, forever and ever and ever
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo-oooo
Oooo-oooo-oooo...
