There was never another
That I could attach to
You played with my slumber
Like you were infatuated
Seeking for silver
I gave you gold
You drank through my liver
It was written in gold
Oh, wasting my time
You were not for me
But the perks of being you
There were no lines to ride
Wasting my time
You were the one for me
There were no perks to being you
I got tossed up like a shoe
Holding it closer
Than I ever thought I could
But I did it better
I was known in my neighbourhood
Running with the sunshine
To please the gods above
Perhaps a little moon shine
To seize what I had known
Oh, wasting my time
You were not for me
But the perks of being you
There were no lines to ride
Wasting my time
You were the one for me
There were no perks to being you
I got tossed up like a shoe
