Wasted Time (The Eagles)

Joe (The Walrus) Wallace

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 tryin' to remember ~ ~ ~
How will you start it over
You don't know what became ~
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 to well ~, farewell ~

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

So you live your life from day to day,
And you dream about tomorrow ~ ~ ~
And the hours go by like minutes
And the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something
To make them go away ~
And I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind ~
From wondrin' what I left behind
And from worrying 'bout this wasted time

Ooh, another love has come and gone ~
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 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

Oh Oh

Not wasted time ~

Wasted time ~,

No no oh oh oh

Oh ~ oh, oh ~ oh not wasted time ~
