Laid to Wasted - Nazareth

Title: Laid to wasted

You’ve been laid to waisted

And the bad you tasted on your rise

You still pretend surprise

When the crowd has staggered home, you’re the jester

And now you’re on your own

So you play an old favourite

You must remember to forget the time

When bands of angels sung your praises

In the nights and the lights

Burned your name across the night sky

Those days are gone, you’re better now

Maybe you will find what you’re looking for

You must remember to forget the time

When bands of angels sung your praises

In the nights and the lights

Burned your name across the night sky

Those days are gone, you’re better now

Maybe you will find what you’re looking for

You’ve been used and run around

Everytime you pledged your love you found

But your feet still off the ground

So-called friends have turned their coats for another

Who has still to learn the ropes

But you play an old favourite

You must remember to forget the time

When bands of angels sung your praises

In the nights and the lights

Burned your name across the night sky

Those days are gone, you’re better now

Maybe you will find what you’re looking for

You’ve been tried and tested

No one’s interested in your light

But still you need the night

Shine on, accept the dawn

When your turn comes round again they’ll sing alone

But you play an old favourite

You must remember to forget the time

When bands of angels sung your praises

In the nights and the lights

Burned your name across the night sky

Those days are gone, you’re better now

Maybe you will find what you’re looking for

Maybe you will find what you’re looking for
