Wasted Time

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 world all right

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
