Wasting My Love on You

Wasting My Love On You - Annette Hanshaw/Phil Saxe/Lewis James/Elliot Shaw

You came along on a May day

You brought me love in the Spring

Now I know that May day

Never meant a thing

I'm just a lonely romancer

Right at the end of my rope

Though I've had your answer

I can't give up hope

I'm in love with someone who doesn't love me

That's why I'm bluer than blue

Wasting my time wasting my love on you

Just you

I'm just like a loveboat that's sailing the sea

Without any captain or crew

Wasting my time wasting my love on you

If I could forget your kiss

I'd dismiss you from my memory

But the rapture of your charms

And those arms that used to thrill haunt me still

I'm forever dreaming of what used to be

And my heart is breaking in two

Wasting my time wasting my love on you

You took all my kisses

I thought that you cared

Now what am I going to do

I've wasted my time wasted my love on you

Just you

And when you seemed lonesome the hours I shared

I'd live them all over with you

Wasting my time wasting my love on you

All on you

Love is such a fickle thing

Still I cling to bygone memories

How can I forget the bliss of your kiss

That used to burn how I yearn

Every night I scorch while I carry the torch

Oh why do I have to be blue

Wasting my time wasting my love on you
