Wasting Our Time

(album: Native Sons - 1976)

Stone quiet, you're lying here shying from me like some kind of stranger
And trying to smile is kind of killing me
I swear, dear, you don't even seem aware of the danger
And keeping my head is easier said than done
Oh-oh-oh

I try, but you just never listen to me
You're so damn impossible, oh
I guess there's just no sense in wasting our time

Well then, do I give in or begin trying to change it?
Loving you once had come so naturally
On and on, are you running or are you trying to decide, devil or ranger?
And keeping it up was never this much on me
Oh-oh-oh

I try, but you just never listen to me
You're so damn impossible
You said, now there's no sense in wasting our time

You are my wife and I love you
And I ain't gonna change you for somebody else
You are the life and I love you
And I'll never, ever, love by myself

Wanna turn around and listen to me?
Don't be so impossible
[?] don't you be afraid of wasting our time, wasting our time, wasting our...
Oh-oh-oh

Wanna turn around and listen to me?
It's not so impossible
Whoa, I'm not afraid of wasting our time
