Written by Robbie Williams and Stephen Duffy



When we were only 17

And thrown into society

That was the end of you and me

From what we could have been



And if we didn't keep in touch

I guess we didn't care that much

We never understood that stuff

But now I need you



I never meant to let you down

But lettin' you down was easy



Didn't it break your heart

Maybe I'm just too needy

Do any of you still need me

In your lives, in your heart

Don't say yes just to please me

If you're still you and you aren't

But don't say no



We fought togethe,r laughed together

Said things that we hoped were clever

The thought of missing you forever

Makes me wanna cry

And now that you've grown up to be

A sentimental memory

Are you still you 'cuz I'm still me

At least I hope so



A life beginning somewhere else

It was our time to die



Didn't it break your heart

Maybe I'm just too needy

Do any of you still need me

In your life, in your heart

Don't say yes just to please me

If you're still you and you aren't

Don't say no



So, what do you know

Where do you go

Has it been fun

Oh did you survive being buried alive

Like I did



Didn't it break your heart

Maybe I'm just too needy

Do any of you still need me

In your life, in your heart

Don't say yes just to please me

If you're still you and you want

Don't say no



Didn't it break your heart

Maybe I'm just too needy

Do any of you still need me

In your life, in your heart

Don't say yes just to please me

If you're still you and then you aren't

Don't say no
