Where Was Your Heart (when You Needed It Most) Lyrics - This Last Night In Sodom - Soft Cell

You're time-wasting again 

Biting your nails like you were sixteen 

Putting up your little walls 

When emotion's around 

Leave your little heart 

In the lost and found 

Your friends would die laughing 

If they saw you this way 

Even though they cry the same tears every day 

Where was your heart 

When you needed it most? 

Hand in hand with your innocence 

Gave up the ghost

But it doesn't do to tell 

You're at your best 

When you're living hell 

Just put on your hard face 

You know you do that so well 

Thank god you wore 

Your waterproof make-up today 

And who gives a damn about him anyway? 

To him you're a body 

And to hell with the mind 

But you get the same stick from his type all the time 

Just a couple of drinks 

And they've got you tonight 

And you know the sad thing 

Is that they're often right 

Photos 

Where was your heart 

When you needed it most? 

Hand in hand with your innocence 

Gave up the ghost 

They take hold of your heart 

And they spit it right out 

Make a show of their conquest 

When their friends are about 

Your ego deflated 

You gave up the fight 

And became the good-time-had-by-all-every-night 

And where was your heart 

When you needed it most? 

Hand in hand with your innocence 

Gave up the ghost 

No comfort of beds 

Or the softness of sheets 

Just the back of a car 

Sprawled across the back seats 

And he'll just not give up 

And he's messed up your head 

A dish in the disco 

But a pig in the bed 

So you build up a false love affair anyway 

Photocopy soap opera stories all day 

Where it all ends up fine 

And it all ends in church 

And the girl looks like you 

And she never really gets hurt 

And where was your heart 

When you needed it most? 

Hand in hand with your innocence 

Gave up the ghost
