Well, you're looking good; it's hard to fight it, but no use explaining; I've already decided that living with you is worse than without you. I won't spend a lifetime worrying about you. Oh, things got rough, and you disappeared, but I'm back on my feet and look, look who's standing there. Where were you when I needed you? Where were you when I wanted you? The Grassroots - Where were you when I needed you.
About a guy in love with a rich girl who “could never be his girl” (she’s kind of stuck up) but when she can’t achieve her Hollywood dreams, she turns to stripping (horrors!) becomes a methhead, wastes away and dies. Great song. Sad and bitter.
Gordon Lightfoot - Sundown. I know it's really about a skanky girlfriend/ex-girlfriend but it's "close enough for hand grenades" as a former colleague used to say.
