Wasting My Time

(lyrics by Andy Brettell)

look at my life
can't you see what you've done to my life ?
I never wanted to lose you, but now you've gone away
what's left to say ?

look at my life
how I live out what's left of my life
loneliness is my night time, and emptiness my day
----

now that you've walked away from me
walked out of my life, for no reason or rhyme
I realise that it was true, what friends told me,
all you were doing was wasting my time

now I'm alone in my room again
counting cracks in the ceiling, time after time,
this time I thought love had finally found me
but all you were doing was wasting my time

wasting my time wanting you
wasting my time needing you
dramatically, ecstatically
wasting my time,
wasting my time

wasting my time loving you,
wasting my time losing you
dramatically, ecstatically
wasting my time
wasting my time

ok, I'll search for a new love,
someone who will hold me, and help on life's climb,
but I know now that I've known you
I know now that I've known you
all I'll be doing is...
wasting my time
