Who am I? To need you when I'm down And where are you When I need you around Your life is not your own And all I ask you Is for another chance Another way around you To live by circumstance,once again Who am I? To need you now To ask you why, to tell you no To deserve your love and sympathy You were never meant to belong to me And you may go But I know you won't leave Too many years built into memories Your life is not your own Who am I? To need you now To ask you why, to tell you no To deserve your love and sympathy You were never meant to belong to me Who am I to you? Along the way, I lost my faith And as you were, you'll be again To mold like clay, to break like dirt To tear me up in your sympathy You were never meant to belong to me You were never meant to belong to me You were never meant to belong to me Who am I? |

They had be working on the song for 12-14 days to get a feeling to it that was very elusive. The song was released in November 1998 as a radio promo.
