Wasted Years

From the coast of gold, across the seven seas
 I'm travelling on, far and wide
 But now it seems, I'm just a stranger to myself,
 And all the things I sometimes do
 It isn't me but someone else.
 I close my eyes, and think of home
 Another city goes by, in the night
 Ain't it funny how it is
 You never miss it til it's gone away
 And my heart is lying there
 And will be til my dying day
 So understand
 Don't waste your time
 Always searching for those wasted years
 Face up... make your stand
 And realise you're living in the golden years
 Too much time on my hands
 I got you on my mind
 Can't ease this pain, so easily
 When you can't find the words to say
 It's hard to make it through another day
 And it makes me wanna cry
 A nd throw my hands up to the sky
