Where Were You? Lyrics - Singles - Jonatha Brooke

You know the tricks of the trade 

You can hit the soft spots at the center 

You dish it out and take it back riding 

On the wave of your pompous ways 

Oh, but sooner or later 

You'll have to wring your lovely hands in dismay 

You'll go back to the boardroom, add the numbers up 

And turn the page at the end of the day 

Where were you at the bleakest of moments? 

Where were you at the hint of success? 

When through the window of opportunity came 

The glimmer of a day in the sun, glimmer of a day in the sun 

You took the canvas of a life, torn with the wind 

And the loss could still pull you along 

Pocketing images one by one of the past 

Toward your future, a penny for your song 

Position memories carefully 

You dust them off at holidays 

Then you'll go back to the boardroom 

Declare your passion for the new day 

Where were you at the bleakest of moments? 

Where were you at the hint of success? 

When through the window of opportunity came 

The glimmer of a day in the sun, glimmer of a day in the sun 

I don't think that it's me you've got in mind 

Looks like the blind still bluffing the blind 

Lead me on and lay me down 

'Cause where were you? 

Where were you at the bleakest of moments? 

Where were you at the hint of success? 

When through the window of opportunity came 

The glimmer of a day in the sun, glimmer of a day in the sun
