Spending My Time Lyrics

by Roxette  Words by Per Gessle.  Music by Per Gessle/Mats Persson

What's the time?
Seems it's already morning.
I see the sky,
it's so beautiful and blue.
The TV's on but the only thing
showing is a picture of you.
Oh I get up and make myself some coffee.
I try to read a bit but the story's too thin.

I thank the lord above that you're not here
to see me in the shape I'm in.

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small
I stare at the wall
Hoping that you think of me too.
I'm spending my time
I try to call but I don't know what to tell you
I leave a kiss on your answering machine
Oh help me please
Is there someone who can make me wake up from this dream?

Spending my time
Watching the days go by
Feeling so small
I stare at the wall
Hoping that you are missing me too.

I'm spending my time
Watching the sun go down.
I fall asleep to the sound of "tears of a clown,"
a prayer gone blind.
I'm spending my time
My friends keep telling me
Hey, life will go on,
Time will make sure I'll get over you.
This silly game of love
You play, you win only to lose.
