Beautiful waste of time Songtext

von Ellen Foley

Blue dirty sky blinks tonight,
Mother Earth's sails blowing.
All the times you try to use it,
All the times you've tried to refuse it
She always let's you know.

It's just a beautiful waste of time,
I don't know why but you can waste mine.
It's just a beautiful nowhere to go,
But that's alright as long as I know.
It's just a beautiful nowhere to go.

Over by a tree and lake
Somewhere between give and take
There's a place I couldn't kid it,
A place I'd never hid it,
Where nothing goes to fake.

[Refrain]
It's just a beautiful waste of time,
I don't know why but you can waste mine.
It's just a beautiful nowhere to be,
But that's alright as long as I see.
It's just a beautiful nowhere to be.

Brown leaves lick a cloudy sky.
Daddy's gray as thunders grow.
Mother holds the silver needle rain,
Yields another spring again.
She always let's love go.

[Refrain]

It's just a beautiful waste of time.
