Lost Moments


Wasting time,

life’s greatest pleasure

 

Wasting time,

life’s greatest pain

 

Wasting time,

beyond all measure

 

Wasting time

—bittersweet refrain

So very true, I liked the fact that this is direct, compact and shows good rhyme... not overdone. There is a musical quality to this, it would make excellent lyrics.
