Joe Jackson Wasted Time Lyrics

Wasted Time Lyrics

Maybe it would be better if we never said goodbye

Maybe I'd grow much older with you in my life

Maybe we'd come out winners putting the world to right

Maybe I should be sorry for wasting your time



So who's right will take my side

And call it spite or call it pride

Call it love that never died

Call it anything but wasted time?



After the party's over, after the dream has died

Some people keep returning to the scene of the crime

Try to rewrite the story, tell you you never tried

Tell you you should be sorry for wasting their time



So who's right will take my side

And call it spite or call it pride

Call it love that never died

Call it anything but wasted time?



Maybe we could've done better, maybe, maybe not

Maybe we could've made better use of time

Maybe if anyone knew better how much time we've got

They/It wouldn't be so hard to make the words up right



So who's right will take my side

And call it spite or call it pride

Call it love that never died

Call it anything but wasted time?
