[chorus]

Where were you when I was all alone

See, I don't need you now I'm standing on my own

When I was down you weren't around so go

Cuz I ain't used to bein' no one's Mrs. So So



[verse 1]

When I woke up this morning I said I know I deserve much better

Sitting around, waiting around for you to try and get it right

So many times I've tried to tell myself it's all a phase

Everywhere I would go they could see the pain all on my face



[hook]

And everybody always asked me why I stayed

Believed and listened 'til he learned to change his ways

And I would make up an excuse about better days

Knowin' that I shoulda turned and walked away yeah

Starin' at the memories of yesterday

Thinkin' 'bout all the games you used to play

Now I don't know why you're tryin' to come back now

It's funny how things come back around



[chorus x2]

Where were you when I was all alone

See, I don't need you now I'm standing on my own

When I was down you weren't around so go

Cuz I ain't used to bein' no one's Mrs. So So



[verse 2]

Now after all this time you fin'ly realize that I'm over you 

Cuz I'm not there for you, go away you were used too

Eventually I knew you'd come back beggin' on yo' knees

I turn my back on you today and here is what I say



[chorus x2]

Where were you when I was all alone

See, I don't need you now I'm standing on my own

When I was down you weren't around so go

Cuz I ain't used to bein' no one's Mrs. So So



[bridge]

It's about time I found someone that  wants to be here for me

No more decievin' or even believin', all yo' heart is lies

I know I'm through with you boy, there there is no giving in now

There's only one thing I want you to be thinking about

Where were you when I was alone

I don't need you, I'm on my own

Where were you when I was alone

I ain't no one's Mrs. So So



[chorus x4]

Where were you when I was all alone

See, I don't need you now I'm standing on my own

When I was down you weren't around so go

Cuz I ain't used to bein' no one's Mrs. So So
