Wasted
    Depressed in New Orleans
    Oblivious to Mardi Gras revelry
    Broken strand of beads bring no smile
    Rolling passed my feet
    I waste the day
    As I waste away

    Forlorn in Paris
    The city of love has none for me
    As cars speed down the Champs Elysee
    Their shadows stream passed my feet
    I waste the day
    As I waste away

    Melancholy a sail on tropical sea
    Salt spray hitting my brow as dolphin leaps
    Disguise my tears and swollen eyes
    White salt crystal cover my feet
    I waste the day
    As I waste away

    Crying in heaven
    As tears reflecting the sky above
    Splash down on streets of gold
    Splattered at my feet
    I waste the day
    As I waste away

    Languishing in Paradise
    No help from the thought of you
    No reward from empty whiskey bottles
    Scattered at my feet
    I waste the day
    As I waste away

    A sadness with no cure
    Hangs heavy on my broken heart
    No escape from your memory found
    Inconsolable staring down at my feet
    I waste the day
    As I waste away
