I'm wastin' my tears on you

You call me your own and then you leave me alone
I'm wasting my tears on you
While I settle down you're still paintin' the town
I'm wasting my tears on you
You promised time and time again to stop two timing me
Though I knew better even then I couldn't set you free
I love you somehow but it's all over now
I'm wasting my tears on you

I know it's no use so I'm turning you loose
I'm wasting my tears on you
I want you to know you're now free to go
I'm wasting my tears on you

You promised time and time again to stop two timing me
Though I knew better even then I couldn't set you free
But my love has grown cold all you want is my gold
I'm wasting my tears on you

You promised time and time again to stop two timing me
Though I knew better even then I couldn't set you free
Now you know how I feel so let's face the new deal
I'm wasting my tears on you
