WASTIN’ MINE

I know what’s goin’ on here
Though the words you say ain’t comin’ in clear
Your love left a long time ago
But you remain and your contempt grows

You’re bidin’ your time and wastin’ mine
Time flies and you’re wastin’ mine

You ought to give it some thought
Look at what you want and look what you got
Things change but people don’t
Why you say you will when you know you won’t

Words—schmords
I can feel it in my bones
Anyday now you’ll be up and gone

I know what’s goin’ on here
And it won’t be long I’ll find my solace in beer
Love only lasts as long as it does
And we can’t go back to the way that it was

Precious precious time
You’re wastin’ mine
Precious precious time
You’re wastin’ mine
Time flies
Time flies
Time flies
And you’re wastin’ mine
