Wasted

Standing at the back door, she tried to make it fast

One tear hit the hardwood, it fell like broken glass

She said, "Sometimes love slips away and you just can't get it back

Let's face it"

For one split second, she almost turned around

But that would be like pouring raindrops back into a cloud

So she took another step and said, "I see the way out

And I'm gonna take it"

I don't wanna spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I let all these years go by, wasted

Another glass of whiskey, but it still don't kill the pain

So he stumbles to the sink and pours it down the drain

He said, "It's time to be a man and stop living for yesterday

Gotta face it"

'Cause I don't wanna spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I let all these years go by, wasted

Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishing

Missing the still of the morning, the color of the night

I ain't spending no more time wasted

She kept driving along

Till the moon and the sun

Were floating side-by-side

He looked in the mirror

And his eyes were clear

For the first time in a while

Yeah, yeah

Oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I let all these years go by, wasted

Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishing

Missing the still of the morning, the color of the night

I ain't spending no more time wasted

Oh, I don't wanna spend my life jaded

Waiting to wake up one day and find

That I let all these years go by, wasted, yeah, yeah

Oh, I don't wanna keep on wishing

Missing the still of the morning, the color of the night

I ain't spending no more time wasted
