Not When I Need It

Matthew Sweet

2

Look at you you're just as blind

Trying to grab your little piece of mind

And you want to hold it near

But you know you can't keep it

Say a little should suffice

But more than a little of you is so nice

And you give me what I want

Not when I need it (not when I need it)

Not when I need it (not when I need it)

Well I find it all the time

But Not when I need it

No two days are quite the same

I look at me life I really can't complain

And you come so easily

Not when I need it (not when I need it)

Not when I need it (not when I need it)

Well I find it all the time

Not when I need it

The feeling's getting out of hand

But I can't have you on demand

I can hang onto a dream

But I can't hold it

Late at night I'm filled with fear

That I can't take for granted that you'll

Always be near

And it makes me hate myself

To think I can't see it (not when I need it)

Not when I need it (not when I need it)

Well I find it all the time

Not when I need it (not when I need it)

Well I find it all the time

Not when I need it
