Wasting Time Lyrics by Ether (UK)

Strange

1998

[Verse 1]
You were gunning for a man
You shot me down and took my hand
I guess it's only now I find
That the love I left behind
Never used to mess my mind up
Girl, like you do

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't wait
Won't you tell me straight?

[Chorus]
Oh, I've been knocking on a door
But I'm not knocking anymore
'Cause I need to know
Am I wasting time?
Oh, I feel I've a right to say
I'm gonna tell you anyway
'Cause another day
Is just wasting time

[Verse 2]
I'll pour water on this flame
It might never burn the same
What I'd really like to say
Is the love I feel today
Is more than yesterday
But less than tomorrow

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't wait
Won't you tell me straight?

[Chorus]
Oh, I've been knocking on a door
But I'm not knocking anymore
'Cause I need to know
Am I wasting time?
Oh, I feel I've a right to say
I'm gonna tell you anyway
'Cause another day
Is just wasting time

[Bridge]
Wasting time
Should be getting on with my life, life
Wasting time
I know you're gonna be always mine

[Verse 3]
Call me stupid or naïve
Call me mindless, call me weak
Just put a gun against my head
'Cause you've got the words I said
But you're still willing instead
To say it's over

[Pre-Chorus]
I can't wait
Won't you demonstrate?

[Chorus]
Oh, I've been knocking on a door
But I'm not knocking anymore
'Cause I need to know
Am I wasting time?
Oh, I feel I've a right to say
I'm gonna tell you anyway
'Cause another day
Is just wasting time

Oh, I've been knocking on a door
But I'm not knocking anymore
'Cause I need to know
Am I wasting time?
Wasting time?
