Wasting Your Time
Frank Mccomb Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

She's out only to break young hearts.
Taking money from you old men, too.
You better hold tight to your feelings
'cause her next victim just might be you.

Hook 1

You'll just be waisting your time.
Don't step to her if it's true love you're out to
find.
For those of you who'll take chance
take it like a man when she crushes your heart in the
palm of her hand.

Brothas with broken hearts are her prey
and you best believe she'll use a man with low self
esteem.




Take it from one who truly knows
'cause the last soul she stole belong to me.
