Lirieke: Ashanti. The Vault. Mrs. So So.

[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
