WASTED TIME

Remember better times - you told me ´don´t think twice´
´We have the future on our side´
A life in overdrive - that´s what you had in mind
But in the end it was just lies

For somewhere in that night your vision went astray
You lost it to the streets - a dream that broke away

Talking ´bout wasted time - you do
Talking ´bout wasted life
When the doubts are coming through
And the promises you´ve broken, coming back in rhyme
On your mind - wasted time

Ambitions flying high - they all were bound to die
You never noticed moving on
They turned into your dreams - just like some memories
But now you know they´ve come undone.

For now the tide has turned, somewhere behind those blinds
And no one seems to know an old man left behind

Talking ´bout wasted time, you do
Talking ´bout wasted life
When the doubts are comin through
And the promises you´ve broken coming back in rhyme
On your mind - wasted time

SOLO

Talking ´bout wasted time, you do
Talking ´bout wasted life
When the doubts are comin through ...
