John Ralston - I Guess I Wasted My Summer Now lyrics

rate me

I was standing on the edge of it

I was looking down

I was getting sick

But you were sitting on the shore looking beautiful and bored

So I took a step and I felt the air and drank it down 'til it wasn't there

And then I saw the ocean floor

And then I only wanted more

Because it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all such a waste of time

Last night we stayed out too late

We were so sure that it was our fate

But the night-flower that blooms is a disgrace at noon

So I looked you up in the big phone book

I had butterflies

They had sharpened hooks

And I was sitting on the floor just waiting for the score

And now it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all such a waste

Well you don't know that

You just think you're doing what you should

The stars come out at night

I thought I...

I was searching for you on the shore

There were bodies there, but nothing more

And then I knew what I was for

And I, I was nothing more than a shadow passing through your world

I was all of it, and I was nothing, girl

And now I'm sitting on the shore

And I only want more

Because it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all such a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time

Yeah, it's all just a waste of time
