Well baby, there you stand
With your little head, down in your hand
Oh, my God, can't believe it's happening again
Your baby's gone, and you're all alone
And it looks like the end
You're back on the street,
And you're trying to remember
How do you start it over
You don't know what you can
You don't care much
For a stranger's touch
But you can't hold your man
You never thought you'd be alone
This far down the line
And I know what's been on your mind
You're afraid it's all been wasted time
The autumn leaves have got you thinking
About the first time that you fell
You didn't love the boy too much, no, no
You just loved the boy top well,
So you live from day to day,
And you dream about tomorrow
And the hours go by like minutes
And the shadows come to stay
So you take a little something
To make them go away
I could have done so many things, baby
If I could only stop my mind
From wondrin' what I left behind
And from worrying 'bout this wasted time
Ooh, another love has come and gone
Ooh, and the years keep rushing on
I remember what you told me before you went out on your own:
Sometimes to keep it together, you've got to leave it alone
So you can get on with your search,baby,
And I can get on with mine
And maybe someday we will find ,
That it wasn't really wasted time
Mm,hm
Oh hoo, ooh, ohh,
Ooh,ooh, mm
