The Eagles - Wasted Time

Wasted Time
The Eagles

Well baby, there you stand
Oh my god, you can't believe
With your little head down in your hand
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.
You don't know what became.
How will you start it over?
But you can't hold your man.
You don't care much for a stranger's touch,

You never thought you'd be alone
This far down the line
But I know what's been on your mind
You're afraid it's all been wasted time
The autumn leaves have got you thinkin'

About the first time that you fell
No no, you just loved the boy too well
You didn't love the boy too much

So you live from day to day
And you dream about tomorrow
And the hours go by like minutes
So you take a little somethin'
I could have done so many things, baby
The shadows come to stay
To make them go away

If I could only stop my mind
And from worryin' about this wasted time
From wonderin' what I left behind

Another love has come and gone
I remember what you told me
And the years keep rushing on
Before you went out on your own:
"Sometimes to keep it together
You've got to leave it alone"

So you can get on with your search, baby
And maybe someday we will find
And I can get on with mine
That it wasn't really wasted time
