Bidin' My Time

(album: This Way Is My Way - 1969)

I can't believe that you're honestly thinking of leaving me
Cause I thought that leaving really wasn't even on your mind
I'm drowning in tears drowning constantly nearer to misery
Just biding my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.

Over and over I practice every day
What to say when I see you
But when I see you my tears get in the way

I spend my nights making up things I might have to say to you
To stop you from going yet keep you from knowing how I feel
But till the light says goodbye to the night and your face I see
I'll just be biding my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.

Over and over I practice every day
What to say when I see you
But when I see you my tears get in the way

I spend my nights making up things I might have to say to you
To stop you from going yet keep you from knowing how I feel
But till the light says goodbye to the night and your face I see
I'll just be biding my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.

Biding my time while the glow from the wine makes a fool of me.
