	Story Behind the Song Tony came up with another corking song melody with a top chorus and no verses. Phil wrote a couple of verses inspired by his beloved slacker brother in Teeside. Lyrics When I was young I always wasted The chances that life sometimes gave me To elevate my mind to a higher plane Passing on by the breaks they gave me Whittling down the paths before me Burning my bridges 'cos I'm too blind to play I don't mind if you've got better things to do I don't mind if it's something you can't aspire to Take your time, it's got nothing to do with love You are mine and it's nothing you can see or touch These days are all the same Sometimes I dream I'll take it all back A different road down a different soundtrack Turning the table, expect no surprises today I never cared that I'd always be here Trying to gain what is lost forever Praying for someone or something to show me the way I don't mind if you've got better things to do I don't mind if it's something you can't aspire to Take your time, it's got nothing to do with love You are mine and it's nothing you can see or touch These days are all the same I never cared that I'd always be here Trying to gain what is lost forever Praying for someone or something to show me the way
