Song information
Recorded this a couple of years ago, well after iComp died. The arrangement was inspired by the Paul Revere And The Raiders song "Him Or Me - What's It Gonna Be?" with touches of the Beatles' "I Feel Fine" thrown in for good measure. In my fictional history of the Cupcake Parade, this was their first single.

Lyrics
From the moment that we met I made it clear you caught my eye
And it’s plain for all to see that I would love to be your guy
But if the loving that you’re giving isn’t mine…

Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time

I’m a rather simple man who’s only looking to find love
And I hope you understand that you’re the one I’m thinking of
But if winning your heart is an uphill climb

Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time

I’m so tired of games played with my heart
So I’m telling you right from the start

[Instrumental break]
But if winning your heart is an uphill climb

Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time

Now that all is said and done I hope you truly understand
I think you could be the one and hope you choose me for your man
So if you know with me true love you’ll never find

Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time
Don’t waste my time...

You just make sure that all the good things that happened in music in the 60s and early 70s are not forgotten. I love how you replicate the sound of the time and I love your vocal harmonies

Great tune ! Revere + FabFour, Idaho + Liverpool :) Beautiful rich harmonies, in your great style. I was just listening to "Don't Bring Me Down" on the radio a few days ago, and the theme of your tune reminds of a similar message. Well done, a fine addition to The Cupcake Parade.

You are the reincarnation of a 70's maestro of the times. So authentic.
