Zakiya hooker protect me from the blues lyrics

How many times have I asked myself why

All the good things in life seem to pass me by

Trouble and pain is my claim to fame

No matter what I do, I can't find a love that's true

Gave you all I had, then I gave you even more

But all you ever did, was make me blue



Where were you, when I needed you, oh oh baby

Where were you, to protect me from the blues?



My days grow long without him

I don't think my lonely heart will ever mend

Go through my days feelin' tired and blue

All I have left are memories of you

There's danger in this heart of mine

I think I see a real real bad time



Where were you, when I needed you, oh oh baby

Where were you, to protect me from the blues?



I gave you all I had, then I gave you even more

But all you ever did boy, was make me blue



Where were you, when I needed you, oh baby

Where were you, to protect me from the blues?



Ah baby, ah save me from the blues

Ah baby help me, ah protect me from the blues
