Joe Jackson - 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 rights Maybe I should be sorry For wasting your time So who's right Who'll 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 Who'll 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 have done better Maybe, maybe not Maybe we could have made better use of time Maybe if anyone knew better how much time we've got It wouldn't be so hard To make the words all rhyme So who's right Who'll take my side And call it spite or call it pride Call it love that never died Call it anything but wasted time
