the time i've wasted

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

i could've drowned a million 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

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

i could've filled the mississippi river with my tears

no telling what i could've 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

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

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
