Wasted time

Standing in line for the till
Hanging on the phone to pay a bill
So much wasted time

At the station waiting for the train
Watching kids mess up your clean window pane
Too much wasted time

Puddle dodging as cars race by
Trying to juggle the best buy
Hate this wasted time

Pacing around `til the post is here
Yet wishing for the bills to disappear
Sadly wasted time

Praying for the kettle to boil
Wondering which seed`ll be first through the soil
And more wasted time

Will you be coming through that door?
So we can be together for ever more
Is this wasted time?


Was thinking about all the wasted time spend wishing, waiting and wondering, of all the things we could really do in those moments, waiting for your loved one is the worst but is that also wasted time ?
