Am I Wasting My Love On You? - Richard Thompson

Oh I can’t get started, and I’m broken hearted

You smile so sweet but you’re fast on your feet

Do you want me to catch you, or just get near?

Should I chase you forever?

I think I got the idea

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Must be better things I can do Oh I went to a party, you were standing there

You looked so retiring with that fruit in your hair

I said «What gives?"and you said «I do»

And that was the last sense I ever got from you

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Well I’m wasting my love, wasting my love, wasting my love on you

Wasting my love, wasting my love, wasting my love on you

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Must be better things I can do I went to your house, and I drank your tea

We were getting very cosy on Greek philosophy

You chewed on my ear and when I begged for more

You went off to bed, barricaded the door

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Am I wasting my love on you?

Must be better things I can do Than wasting my love, wasting my love, wasting my love on you

Am I wasting my love, wasting my love, wasting my love on you

I’m wasting my love, wasting my love, wasting my love on you

Am I wasting my love, wasting my love, wasting my love on you
