lyrics
Timewaster (c) Darryl John 2019
Verse 1:
I met you at a party,
Just the other night.
You looked kind of cute,
I thought I’d do alright.
So I walked on over,
And asked you to dance.
Hopeful this was to be the start,
Of a new romance.
Verse 2:
You seemed really happy,
To meet a guy like me.
We danced all through the night,
I got home at three.
But by noon the next day,
You’d begun to cool.
It was then I realised,
I was such a fool.
Chorus:
Timewaster, you’re wasting my time,
Timewaster, you’ll never be mine.
Timewaster, I’m wasting my time,
Again.
Bridge 1:
I was very hopeful,
I’d find true love.
Tired of being single,
Needed help from above.
Break: (same as chorus)
Verse 3:
I went out shopping,
Just the other day.
Where I met a lady,
She had plenty to say.
I was kind of taken,
By all her charm,
When we left the shopping mall,
We were arm in arm
Verse 4:
We spent the day together,
Having lots of fun.
A trip down to the beach,
To watch the setting sun.
I was feeling happy,
Didn’t want it to end,
She said I like you mate,
But only as a friend.
Chorus:
Timewaster, you’re wasting my time,
Timewaster, you’ll never be mine.
Timewaster, I’m wasting my time,
Again.
Bridge 2:
I was ever so hopeful,
That I’d find love.
tired of being single,
Wanted help from above.
Chorus:
Timewaster, you’re wasting my time,
Timewaster, you’ll never be mine.
Timewaster, I’m wasting my time,
Again.
Chorus:
Timewaster, you’re wasting my time,
Timewaster, you’ll never be mine.
Timewaster, I’m wasting my time,
Again.
