Wasted Time (Reprise) - 2013 Remaster

Well, baby, there you stand

With your little head down in your hand

Oh, my God, you can't believe

It's happening again

Your baby's gone, and you're all alone

And it looks like the end

And you're back out on the street

And you're trying to remember, oh

How can you start it over?

You don't know if you can

You don't care much for a stranger's touch

But you can't hold your man

You never thought you'd be alone

This far down the line

And I know what's been on your mind

You're afraid it's all been wasted time

The autumn leaves have got you thinking

About the first time that you fell

You didn't love the boy too much

No, no, you just

Loved the boy too well

Farewell

So you live from day to day

And you dream about tomorrow, oh

And the hours go by like minutes

And the shadows come to stay

So you take a little something

To let them go away

And I could've done so many things, baby

If I could only stop my mind

From wonderin' what I left behind?

And from worryin' 'bout this wasted time

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

Another love has come and gone

(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)

And the years keep rushing on

I remember what you told me

Before you went out on your own

"Sometimes to keep it together

We've got to leave it alone"

So you can get on with your search, baby

And I can get on with mine

And maybe someday we will find

That it wasn't really wasted time
