Lyrics

CAN’T WALK AWAY (Wasting Time)

Time never loses…time always wins
We have to do our best until we're dead and gone
No second chances…no going back in time
We have to do our best just to carry on
The sun rises and then it sets again
Time passes slow like a train pulling ‘round the bend

I can’t walk away until I know for sure
That there’s nothing here for you and me
I can’t walk away if there is a chance
That we might love again just like we used to be
So tell me, if I stay, will I be wasting time?

Time never loses…time always wins
There’s no promise that we’ll see another day
No second chances…no going back in time
Will all our dreams turn to dust and blow away?
The sun rises and then it sets again
Time passes slow like a train pulling ‘round the bend

I can’t walk away until I know for sure
That there’s nothing here for you and me
I can’t walk away if there is a chance
That we might love again just like we used to be
So tell me, if I stay, will I be wasting time?

Time never loses…time always wins
We have to do our best until we're dead and gone
No second chances…no going back in time
We have to do our best just to carry on
The sun rises and then it sets again
Time passes slow like a train pulling ‘round the bend

I can’t walk away until I know for sure
That there’s nothing here for you and me
I can’t walk away if there is a chance
That we might love again just like we used to be

I can’t walk away…
(So tell me, if I stay)
I can’t walk away…
(Will I be wasting time?)
I can’t walk away…
(So tell me, if I stay)
I can’t walk away…
(Will I be wasting time?)
