Wasted Years Lyrics - Too Long In Exile - Van Morrison

Wasted years been brainwashed by lies 

Oh yes, I have, oh, wasted years 

I'm talking about wasted years 

Oh, I'm not seeing eye to eye 

I just can't see the things I should see 

Wasted years, baby 

I was taking the wrong advice 

I know you was, I know you was 

And I was too all alone 

I'm traveling, traveling through these wasted years 

For so long, so long, so long I was 

Oh, I must have gained some wisdom 

Down through the years I did 

Somewhere along the way

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Oh yes, I did, oh yes, I did 

That's why there can't be no more 

No more, no more wasted years today 

I got wise, I got wise to myself 

Well, baby the great sadness 

Oh, you've got to let it all go 

Oh yeah, oh yeah Van 

Live in the present 

Live in the future John Lee, ain't that so 

Oh, it's a sad feeling, oh yeah 

Oh, you've gotta find something 

To carry you through, carry you through 

Carry you through 

I've learned my lesson 

I ain't gonna do it no more, yeah 

Now Van, now John 

I've learned my lesson 

I should have a long time ago, that's right 

All these wasted years, wasted years 

I finally woke up and got wise 

I ain't gonna be 

Ain't gonna be no fool no more 

Now Van, now Van 

Ain't gonna be nobody's body's fool no more 

Sing the song Van, sing it with me 

Well all alone, all alone 

I've been traveling, yeah 

Traveling all along through these wasted years 

Dark, dark wasted years 

So dark here 

Dark, dark, dark, dark wasted years 

I must have gained something, yeah 

Oh, traveling along the lonely way 

Yeah, I've learned a lesson 

I'm gonna make damn sure baby, make damn sure
