When we were only 17
And thrown into society
That was the end of you and me
From what we could have beenAnd if we didn't keep in touch
I guess we didn't care that much
We never understood that stuff
But now I need youI never meant to let you down
But lettin' you down was easyDidn't it break your heart
Maybe I'm just too needy
Do any of you still need me
In your lives, in your heartDon't say yes just to please me
If you're still you and you aren't
But don't say noWe fought together laughed together
Said things that we hoped were clever
The thought of missing you forever
Makes me wanna cryAnd now that you've grown up to be
A sentimental memory
Are you still you 'cause I'm still me
At least I hope soA life beginning somewhere else
It was our time to dieDidn't it break your heart
Maybe I'm just too needy
Do any of you still need me
In your life, in your heartDon't say yes just to please me
If you're still you and you aren't
Don't say noSo, 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 heartDon't say yes just to please me
If you're still you and you want
Don't say noDidn't it break your heart
Maybe I'm just too needy
Do any of you still need me
In your life, in your heartDon't say yes just to please me
If you're still you and then you aren't
Don't say no
