|
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 |
