Beautiful Waste of Time Lyrics by Ellen Foley

Spirit of St. Louis

0

Blue dirty sky blinks tonight
(And) Mother Earth’s sails blowing
All the times you try to use it
All the times you’ve tried to refuse it
She always lets you know
It’s just a beautiful waste of time
I don’t know why but you can waste mine
It’s just a beautiful nowhere to go
But that’s alright as long as I know
It’s just a beautiful nowhere to go
Over by a tree and lake
Somewhere between give and take
There’s a place I couldn’t kid it
A place I’d never hid it
Where nothing goes to fake
It’s just a bеautiful waste of time
I don’t know why but you can waste minе
It’s just a beautiful nowhere to be
But that’s alright as long as I’m free
It’s just a beautiful nowhere to be
Brown leaves lick a cloudy sky
Daddy’s gray as thunders grow
Mother holds the silver needle rain
Yields another spring again
She always let’s love go
It’s just a beautiful waste of time
I don’t know why but you can waste mine
It’s just a beautiful nowhere to be
But that’s alright as long as I see
It’s just a beautiful nowhere to be
It’s just a beautiful waste of time...
