I Wasted Time

(álbum: ...Nothing But A Dream - 2001)

I wasted time, now time is wasting me
One question left-to be or not to be?
I cheated time and now it's time to pay
All out of change and less and less to say

I was a handsome raver in my time
Oh girl, you should have seen me in my prime
I see old friends at funerals now and then
It's down to this-it's either me or them

Yeah, I wasted time
Now time is wasting me
Soon it's closing time
Won't you stay with me?

Molly took my hand and led the way
Now Molly's yellow hair is silver-grey
She wore a red dress she let me undo
But Molly swears that day her dress was blue

Yeah, I wasted time
I thought it came for free
Now it's closing time
Won't you pray for me?

I tell you there's no failure like success
And no success like failure too, I guess
