Waste

Oh if we didn't have to sleep

If the moon didn't rise

And make the lights

Burn spots in our eyes

What time there would be

And all I could do

Like sail all the oceans

And compare all the blue

Read every book to ever exist

Write novels in a week or two

Oh if only I didn't have to sleep

For there is so much here to do

I'd climb all the mountains

Count every star

And I'd always make time

To be where you are

I'd cross every border

Note every line

Just to stand next to you

For a moment in time

But we both have to sleep

And do so with haste

And oh the time we have lost

What a waste what a waste
