Wasting Time
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The day is long
Too many hours to fill
It's alright to let a few minutes spill
Where's the crime in wasting time with you
No need to run when the pistols fire
It's alright just let the meter expire
Where's the crime in waisting time with you
People love to talk about the big things they're gonna do
But we've been through it all
We can just remove ourselves
We don't have to prove ourselves
Worthy of their approval
You're only young once
That's one point of view
It's alright with nothing better to do
Where's the crime in wasting time
Where's the crime in wasting time
Where's the crime in wasting time with you
