Lyrics:
Where are you now that I need you?
Now that I want you so badly I could cry
Where are you? Where did fate lead you?
Funny how I dreamed you’d still be standing by

I had you at my beck and call
I called you anytime at all
I guess I took too much for granted
I never thought I’d lie awake and sigh

Where are you now that I need you?
Now that I love you so madly I could die
I had you at my beck and call
I called you anytime at all
I guess I took too much for granted
I never thought I’d lie awake and sigh

Where are you now that I need you?
Now that I want you so badly I could die


Now That I Need You
