You call me your own then you leave me alone
I'm wastin' my tears on you
While I settle down you're still paintin' the town
I'm wastin' 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 wastin' my tears on you

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