Waste Your Time One Me - Emma Sehested Høeg

Working full-time at a job you hate Tryna pay your bills but you're always late Had a couple dreams back when you was a teen But responsibilities meant it had to wait You got a bunch of friends but you feel alone They try and get you out but you stay at home They wanna hit the club but you wanna fall in love With somebody you can trust 'cause there's been Too many times that your heart has been let down And you're picking up pieces from the ground And you feel like screaming out But there's no one to help you Too many times you been told that they can change But they don't, yeah, they always stay the same And leave you in the pouring rain I'm right here to tell you, I won't I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't And help you pick up all the pieces they broke I promise I'll always be with you 'cause You don't wanna waste your time I swear you'll never waste your time with me When's the last time you been outta state? When's the last time that you got away? You're better than that, you been breaking your back You deserve to relax 'cause there's been Too many times that your heart has been let down And you're picking up pieces from the ground And you feel like screaming out But there's no one to help you Too many times you been told that they can change But they don't, yeah, they always stay the same And leave you in the pouring rain I'm right here to tell you, I won't I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't And help you pick up all the pieces they broke I promise I'll always be with you 'cause You don't wanna waste your time I swear you'll never waste your time with me And I'll always let you know That I'll never let you go I swear that you're beautiful You ain't gotta try when you're with me And they might've left you broke And made you feel all alone But I wanna let you know I'm right here to show you, I won't I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't And help you pick up all the pieces they broke I promise I'll always be with you 'cause You don't wanna waste your time I swear you'll never waste your time with me I'll love you in all of the ways that they don't And help you pick up all the pieces they broke I promise I'll always be with you 'cause You don't wanna waste your time I swear you'll never waste your time with me

You work two shifts Baby on the weekends To try to make the ends meet And you're so cool, in your bare feet And your pastels Baby even all your past selves Are beautiful to me And you're so cool, you're so cool, it scares me I'd waste your time The pleasure's all mine When we drive and your smile Opens up wide I'd waste your time The pleasure's all mine With your mouth on my mouth On the south side I'd love to waste your time I'd love to waste your time Whatever's on your mind (oh-oh) I'd love to waste your time Remember last week You roller bladed past me Singing to yourself (La-la-la-la-la-la) And I thought What if I was you?

Ta-ra-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-ira Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira Scappo via dai cieli grigi e dalla nostalgia Corro lontano verso il mare, verso casa mia Vita distratta, vita di strada Ma non è l'America Sono stanca di questa città Dove la notte non dorme mai Dove la musica è solo hype Sembriamo pezzi di un puzzle Che sono messi qui a caso Tu, di quei sogni, cosa ci fai? Io non c'è male, tu come stai? Come stai? Come? (Ti sblocco un ricordo) Ma dimmi tu chi sei La strada del ritorno Nient'altro intorno, chi sei? Le arance e il vino rosso di Ferragosto In fondo è da una vita che vorrei parlarti Dirti quello che non ti hanno ancora detto gli altri Ballare senza voltarmi Girando mezzo mondo Perdermi per ritrovarti (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) Perdermi per ritrovarti E ti ho cercato pure sulla luna Mi ha riportato qui un soffio di vento Per annegare dentro l'acqua chiara E non in questo abisso di cemento Dove la notte non dorme mai Dove la musica è solo hype Sembriamo pezzi di un puzzle Che sono messi qui a caso Tu, di quei sogni, cosa ci fai? Io non c'è male, tu come stai? Come stai? Come? Ma dimmi tu chi sei La strada del ritorno Nient'altro intorno, chi sei? Le arance e il vino rosso di Ferragosto In fondo è da una vita che vorrei parlarti Dirti quello che non ti hanno ancora detto gli altri Ballare senza voltarmi Girando mezzo mondo Perdermi per ritrovarti (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) Perdermi per ritrovarti Mi mancano i cani che abbaiano per dirmi che sono tornata Mi manca l'odore dell'erba bruciata Ma dimmi tu chi sei La strada del ritorno Nient'altro intorno, chi sei? Le arance e il vino rosso di Ferragosto In fondo è da una vita che vorrei parlarti Dirti quello che non ti hanno ancora detto gli altri Ballare senza voltarmi Girando mezzo mondo Perdermi per ritrovarti (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) Perdermi per ritrovarti (Ta-ta-ta, ta-ta-ira-rira) (Ta-ta-ta) Perdersi per ritrovarsi

Ho dato la vita e il sangue per il mio paese E mi ritrovo a non tirare a fine mese In mano a Dio, le sue preghiere Ho giurato fede mentre diventavo padre Due guerre senza garanzie di ritornare Solo medaglie per l'onore E se qualcuno sente queste semplici parole Parlo per tutte quelle povere persone Che ancora credono nel bene, eh-eh-eh Se tu che hai coscienza guidi e credi nel paese Dimmi cosa devo fare per pagarmi da mangiare Per pagarmi dove stare, dimmi che cosa devo fare No, questo no, non è l'inferno Ma non comprendo Com'è possibile pensare che sia più facile morire Io no, non lo pretendo Ma ho ancora il sogno Che tu mi ascolti e non rimangano parole Ho pensato a questo invito non per compassione Ma per guardarla in faccia e farle assaporare Un po' di vino e un poco di mangiare Se sapesse che fatica ho fatto per parlare Con mio figlio che a trent'anni teme il sogno di sposarsi È la natura di diventare padre, eh-eh-eh Se sapesse quanto sia difficile il pensiero Che per un giorno di lavoro c'è chi ha ancora più diritti Di chi ha creduto nel paese del futuro No, questo no, non è l'inferno Ma non comprendo Com'è possibile pensare che sia più facile morire Io no, non lo pretendo Ma ho ancora il sogno Che tu mi ascolti e non rimangano parole Non rimangano parole Na-na, na-na-na-na Na-na, na-na-na-na-ah-ah Com'è possibile pensare che sia più facile morire Io no, non lo pretendo Ma ho ancora il sogno Che tu mi ascolti e non rimangano parole Non rimangano parole Non rimangano parole
