(Verse I)
I should have been lov-ing you,
instead of fighting you.
I should still be next door.
Instead I'm wri-ting to you.
I must have been out of my mind!
I wasted a-ll that time.
(Chorus Refrain)
Now I, Ain't Got Time, For Loving You.

(Verse II)
I should have wal-ked away.
Instead I talked, and stayed.
We should be there in bed.
Instead we're mil-es away.
I should have seen, the signs!
They were there a-ll that time.
Now I, Ain't Got Time, For Loving You.

(Vocal Bridge)
Maybe tomorrow,
we, can take, a break.
Maybe tomorrow,
we can love, for loving's sake.

(Repeat Verse I)
I should have been lov-ing you,
instead of fighting you.
I should still be next door.
Instead I'm wri-ting to you.
I must have been out of my mind!
I wasted a-ll that time.
Now I, Ain't Got Time, For Loving You.

(Coda)
Now I, Ain't Got Time, For Loving You.
Oh! I, Ain't Got Time, For Loving You.
Now I, Ain't Got Time, --- For You.
