Wasting My Time
Michele Luppi Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

There are many places where I'll never go
Even though I'm still searching for
The quiet place inside my mind, inside my heart
I may never find it
(I may never find it...)

Well I've been hurting for too long
The pain became my mentor
(The pain became my mentor)
'Cause I got drunk with the juice of your heart
You could feed the whole world on it

I gave you more than I had taken
Well I know I was wasting my time
Don't wanna dream about another world
I live for you, I cry for you
You don't get wet with all my tears
My heart is always filled with sorrow
Will I keep wasting my time?

I hear them laughing...
Were they really right?
And now I'm hoping that one day you'll still be mine
(You'll still be mine...)
'Cause I got drunk with the juice of your heart
I couldn't feed my world without it

I gave you more than I had taken
Well I know I was wasting my time
Don't wanna dream about another world
I live for you, I cry for you
You don't get wet with all my tears
My heart is always filled with sorrow

Will I keep wasting my time?
Hoping it would never end?
I'll never believe anymore... No

Will I keep wasting my time?
Hoping it would never end?
I'll never believe anymore...

I gave you more than I had taken
Well I know I was wasting my time
(I don't wanna waste my time, no more)
Don't wanna dream about another world
I live for you, I cry for you
You don't get wet, wet with all my tears
My heart is always filled with sorrow

Will I keep wasting my time?
Hoping it would never end?
I'll never believe anymore... No
(No, no, no...)

Will I keep wasting my time?
Hoping it would never end?
Mmm, will I keep on... Yeah, wasting my time...

(Wasting my time)
Wasting my time again... Ooh, no...




No more, no more, no more wasting my time...
(Wasting my time)
