Wasted Years Van Morrison

[Verse 1: Van Morrison, John Lee Hooker]
Wasted years (Mmm)
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 (Oh)
I was taking the wrong advice
(I know you was, I know you was, and I was too, yeah)

[Verse 2: Van Morrison, John Lee Hooker]
All alone I'm travelling (Mmm)
Travelling through these wasted years, yeah
(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 (Oh yes I did, oh yes I did)
That's why there can't be no more (No more)
No more wasted years today, yeah (I got wise, I got wise to myself)

[Verse 3: Van Morrison, John Lee Hooker]
Well baby, the great sadness (Mmm)
Oh, you 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 got to find something (Mmm)
To carry you through (Yeah yeah), carry you through (Yeah yeah)
Carry you through (Yeah)
I've learned my lesson, I ain't gonna do it no more, yeah
