I'd have time on my hands 
Time to make some plans 
Time to take a different point of view 
I'd have time to be alone 
Time to stay out all night long 
But you know 
I'm too busy being blue 

I'd have time to fool around 
Time to paint the town 
Time to spend each night with someone new 
Time to take a walk 
Time to sit and talk 
But you know 
I'm too busy being blue 

I'd have time to leave behind 
Thoughts of you and all your kind 
Time to leave behind the world we knew 
But I'm still occupied 
Just remembering how we cried 
And you know 
I'm too busy being blue
