Wasted Time (Live On MTV, 1994)

Wasted time
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 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 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 theis wasted time
Ooh  another love has come and gone
Ooh  and the years keep rushing on
I remeber 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
Mm hm
Oh hoo  ooh  ohh
Ooh ooh  mm
