[Verse 1]
I could've walked around the world a couple times
I could've swam across the ocean and back again
Made a wish on every star that Galileo drew
For all the time I've wasted on you
[Verse 2]
I've could've drowned him in the beers in Mexico
Counted every piece of gravel on a long county road
Sailed that slow boat down to china, right up to the moon
For all the time I've wasted on you
[Chorus]
Time goes by, when it's gone, it's gone
And you realize that time just lies
And you did not move on
No, you just cried, you just cried
[Verse 3]
I could've filled the Mississippi river with my tears
No telling what I coulda done with all these years
I could've dug out the Grand Canyon with a spoon
Yeah, for all the time I've wasted on you
[Chorus]
Time goes by, when it's gone, it's gone
And you realize that time just lies
And you did not move on
No, you just cried, you just cried
[Verse 4]
For everything I've lost, I'm not mad at love
I'd even give it one more day if I thought it'd be enough
I could've served five life sentences for a crime I didn't do
For all the time I've wasted on you
Yeah, for all the time I've wasted on you
